Answer:

3.00 mol

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of P₄ = 211 g

Mass of oxygen = 240 g

Moles of P₂O₅ = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

P₄ + 5O₂ → 2P₂O₅

Number of moles of P₄:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 211 g / 123.88 g/mol

Number of moles = 1.7 mol

Number of moles of O₂ :

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 240 g / 32g/mol

Number of moles = 7.5 mol

Now we will compare the moles of product with reactant.

O₂ : P₂O₅

5 : 2

7.5 : 2/5×7.5 = 3.00

P₄ : P₂O₅

1 : 2

1.7 : 2×1.7 = 3.4 mol

Oxygen is limiting reactant so the number of moles of P₂O₅ are 3.00 mol.

Mass of P₂O₅:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 3 mol ×283.9 g/mol

Mass = 852 g

Read the given expression. X = number of protons − number of core electrons Which of the following explains the identity of X an

shepuryov [24]

<u>Answer: </u>The correct statement is X is the effective nuclear charge, and it increases across a period.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given that:

X = number of protons − number of core electrons

Effective nuclear charge is defined as the actual nuclear charge (Z = number of protons) minus the screening effect caused by the electrons present between nucleus and valence electrons. These electrons are the core electrons.

The formula used for the calculation of effective nuclear charge given by Slater is:

$Z^*=Z-\sigma$

where,

$Z^*$ = effective nuclear charge

Z = atomic number or actual nuclear charge or number of protons

$\sigma$ = Screening constant

The effective nuclear charge increases as we go from left to right in a period because nuclear charge increases with no effective increase in screening constant.

Hence, the correct answer is X is the effective nuclear charge, and it increases across a period.

Calculate the maximum amount of useful work that can be obtained and comment on the spontaneity for the reaction at 25C :

harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

$1.41 *10^{3} kJ/mol$

Explanation:

First, we find in the tables the ΔH of formation of each compound. As you can see in the (image 1)

Then we solve the ecuation for ΔH°reaction

ΔH°reaction=∑ΔH°f(products)−∑ΔH°f(Reactants)

ΔH°reaction= (-2* 393.5 - 2*285.8) - (52.4 + 0) kJ/mol

ΔH°reaction = -1.41 *10^3 kJ/mol

What do Potassium and Krypton have in common and what are their differences based on their location on the periodic table?

andreev551 [17]

Common based on their location in Periodic Table;

Potassium has an atomic number 19. Its electronic configuration is as follow;

1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s¹

And Krypton has an atomic number of 36. Its electronic configuration is as follow;

1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹⁰, 4p⁶

It is concluded that both Potassium and Krypton has their valence electrons in 4rth shell or they have same Principle Quantum Number.

Difference based on their location in Periodic Table;

As observed in electronic configuration Potassium has one valence electron in its valence shell (i.e. 4s¹) while, Krypton has eight valence electrons in its valence shell (i.e. 4s², 4p⁶). Therefore, they are different in the number of valence electrons.
