Compare the first ionization energy of sodium to that of potassium

Chemistry
1 answer:
stellarik [79]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Sodium is higher than Potassium in thesame group

Explanation:

Sodium and potassium are the elements present in the first group of the periodic table. In group, atomic size increases from top to bottom this implies that even atomic radius increases. This causes less attraction force by nucleus on the electrons of outermost orbit of the atom and hence reduces the first ionisation energy, which is the energy required to remove the electron from the outermost orbit of an atom. So, as potassium is below sodium in the group, sodium has greater ionisation energy than potassium

1. Calculate the energy of a photon with a frequency of 3x1015 Hz.<br> ?????
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

1.99 x 10⁻¹⁸J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Frequency of the wave  = 3 x 10¹⁵Hz

Unknown:

Energy of the photon  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the expression below;

     E  = hf

Where E is the energy, h is the Planck's constant and f is the frequency

Now insert the parameters and solve for E;

     E  = 6.63 x 10⁻³⁴ x 3 x 10¹⁵ = 19.9 x 10⁻¹⁹J or 1.99 x 10⁻¹⁸J

What is the concentration of the unknown h3po4 solution? the neutralization reaction ish3po4(aq)+3naoh(aq)→3h2o(l)+na3po4(aq) -g
hjlf
First, we need to get moles of NaOH:

when moles NaOH = volume * molarity 

                                  = 0.02573L * 0.11 M

                                 = 0.0028 moles 

from the reaction equation:

H3PO4(aq) + 3NaOH → 3 H2O(l) + Na3PO4(aq)

we can see that when 1 mol H3PO4 reacts with→ 3 mol NaOH

 ∴ X mol H3PO4 reacts with → 0.0028 moles NaOH

∴ moles H3PO4 = 0.0028 mol / 3 = 9.4 x 10^-4 mol

now we can get the concentration of H3PO4:

∴[H3PO4] = moles H2PO4 / volume

               = 9.4 x 10^-4 / 0.034 L

               = 0.028 M

1 C8H10(l) +21/2O2(g) → 8CO2(g) + 5H2O(g), Hcomb= ? Hf for C8H10(l) = +49.0kJ/mol C8H10(l) Use the balanced combustion reaction
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

H_{comb}=-4406kJ/mol

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the enthalpy of combustion is understood as the energy released when one mole of fuel, in this case octene, is burned in the presence of oxygen and is computed with the enthalpies of formation of the fuel, carbon dioxide and water as shown below (oxygen is circumvented as it is a pure element):

H_{comb}=8*\Delta _fH_{CO_2}+5\Delta _fH_{H_2O}-\Delta _fH_{C_8H_{10}}

Thus, since we already know the enthalpy of combustion of the fuel, for carbon and water we have -393.5 and -241.8 kJ/mol respectively, thereby, the enthalpy of combustion turns out:

H_{comb}=8*(-393.5kJ/mol)+5(-241.8kJ/mol)-49.0kJ/mol\\\\H_{comb}=-4406kJ/mol

Best regards.
