9. In a period, do the number of shielding electrons change? Why do you think

Chemistry

Setler79 [48]3 years ago

Answer:

The nuclear charge increases, but the number of inner shielding electrons stays the same.  

Explanation:

Their shielding does not change, so the effective nuclear charge — the charge felt by a valence electron — increases.

The valence electrons are pulled closer to the nucleus, decreasing the atomic radius.

For example, consider the elements of Period 3.

\begin{array}{ccccc}& & \textbf{Number of} & \textbf{Inner} & \textbf{Valence}\\\textbf{At. No.} & \textbf{Symbol} & \textbf{Protons} & \textbf{Electrons} & \textbf{Electrons}\\11& \text{Na} & 11 & 10 & 1\\12& \text{Mg} &12 & 10 & 2\\13& \text{Al} & 13 & 10 & 3 \\14& \text{Si} & 14 & 10 & 4 \\15& \text{P} & 15 & 10 & 5\\16& \text{S} & 16 & 10 & 6\\17& \text{Cl} & 17 & 10 & 7\\18& \text{Ar} & 18 & 10 & 8 \\\end{array}

The number of protons increases as you go from one element to the next, but the number of inner electrons is constant.

What is the molarity of solution obtained when 5.71 g of sodium carbonate-10-water is dissolved in water and made up to 250.0 cm
disa [49]

We have to know the molarity of solution obtained when 5.71 g of Na₂CO₃.10 H₂O is dissolved in water and made up to 250 cm³ solution.

The molarity of solution obtained when 5.71 g of sodium carbonate-10-water (Na₂CO₃.10 H₂O)  is dissolved in water and made up to 250.0 cm^3 solutionis: (A) 0.08 mol dm⁻³

The molarit y of solution means the number of moles of solute present in one litre of solution. Here solute is Na₂CO₃.10 H₂O and solvent is water. Volume of solution is 250 cm³.

Molar mass of Na₂CO₃.10 H₂O is 286 grams which means mass of one mole of Na₂CO₃.10 H₂O is 286 grams.

5.71 grams of Na₂CO₃.10 H₂O is equal to \frac{5.71}{286}= 0.0199 moles of Na₂CO₃.10 H₂O. So, 0.0199 moles of Na₂CO₃.10 H₂O present in 250 cm³ volume of solution.

Hence, number of moles of Na₂CO₃.10 H₂O present in one litre (equal to 1000 cm³) of solution is \frac{0.0199 X 1000}{250} = 0.0796 moles. So, the molarity of the solution is 0.0796 mol/dm³ ≅ 0.08 mol/dm³

Why ph changes disrupt protein's ionic bonds?
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

A change in pH in the protein habitat can modify its ionic bonds because because the chemical equilibrium shifts to one side or the other depends on the modification

Explanation:

The pH influences the charge acquired by the acidic and basic groups present in the molecules. Proteins usually have groups with characteristics of acid or weak base. Therefore, they are partially ionized in solution coexisting in equilibrium different species.

The degree of ionization of the different functional groups is in relation to the pH of the medium in which they are found, since the H3O + and OH- species are part of the equilibrium situation. Therefore, according to the pH, each group with characteristics of weak acid or base present in the molecule will be ionized to a lesser or greater extent. There are extreme situations where the balance has been totally displaced in one direction, for example: under very high pH conditions (low concentration of H3O +) weak acids are considered fully ionized, so the functional group will always have an electric charge. The same goes for the bases at very low pH values. In other equilibrium situations, species of the same molecule with different load will coexist in the solution, due to the pH value of the medium in which it is found.

Why is the increasing amount of carbon dioxide being taken up by the oceans a cause for concern?
Anna007 [38]

Answer;

-More carbon dioxide causes an increase in carbonic acid (H2CO3) which leads to a decrease in the concentration of carbonate ion (CO32-).

Explanation;

-Carbon dioxide is added to the atmosphere whenever people burn fossil fuels. Oceans play an important role in keeping the Earth's carbon cycle in balance.

-As the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere increases, the oceans absorb a lot of it. In the ocean, carbon dioxide reacts with seawater to form carbonic acid which causes the acidity of seawater to increase.

-As long as we keep putting extra carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, the acidity of the ocean will continue to increase. The effect is that; Increasing acidity makes it harder for corals to build skeletons and for shellfish to build the shells they need for protection. Corals are particularly important because they provide homes for many other sea creatures.
