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.

If 3.00 mL of 0.0250 M CuSO4 is diluted to 25.0 mL with pure water, what is the molarity of copper(II) sulfate in the diluted so
g100num [7]

Answer:

0.00268 M

Explanation:

To find the new molarity, you need to (1) find the moles of CuSO₄ (via the molarity equation using the beginning molarity and volume) and then (2) find the new molarity (using the moles and combined volume). Your final answer should have 3 sig figs to match the given values.

<u>Step 1:</u>

3.00 mL / 1,000 = 0.00300 L

Molarity = moles / volume (L)

0.0250 M = moles / 0.00300 L

(0.0250 M) x (0.00300 L) = moles

7.50 x 10⁻⁵ = moles

<u>Step 2:</u>

25.0 mL / 1,000 = 0.0250 L

0.0250 L + 0.00300 L = 0.0280 L

Molarity = moles / volume (L)

Molarity = (7.50 x 10⁻⁵ moles) / (0.0280 L)

Molarity = 0.00268 M
