What’s the relationship between atomic radius and ease of oxidation on the activity series.

Chemistry

user100 [1]3 years ago

The bigger the atomic radius the easier it is to oxidise the atom. Remember that an atom is oxidized by the loss of an electron.

Explanation:

The bigger the atomic radius the further away the valence electron are from the attractive force of the atomic nucleus. This means that the energy required to remove an electron from the valence shell is easier compared to an atom with a smaller atomic radius. This is because you need to overcome the attractive force of the nucleus on the electron for you to oxidize the atom.

How does the number of valence electrons determine the type and number of bonds an element forms?​
Advocard [28]
The number of electrons in an atom's outermost valence shell governs its bonding behaviour. Elements whose atoms have the same number of valence electrons are grouped together in the Periodic Table. ... Nonmetals tend to attract additional valence electrons to form either ionic or covalent bonds.

If 30.0 g absorbs 255 J of heat, how much does the temperature of the water change? Would the temperature be increasing or decre
Nutka1998 [239]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

Change in temperature = 2.03°C, the temperature is increasing

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • To calculate the quantity of heat absorbed or released by a substance we multiply mass of the substance by it's specific heat capacity and the temperature change.
  • Therefore, Quantity of heat, Q = mass × specific heat × change in temperature

In this case;

Mass of water = 30.0 g

Quantity of heat absorbed = 255 J

Specific heat capacity of water = 4.186 J/g°C

Rearranging the formula, Δt = Q ÷ mc

Δt = 255 J ÷ (4.186 J/g°C×30.0 g )

  = 2.03 °C

The temperature change is 2.03°C, the temperature is therefore increasing.

Sort these isotopes by whether they are most likely to undergo fusion or fission.
Maslowich

Answer:

Uranium-233- fission

Plutonium-239- fission

Plutonium-241- fission

Hydrogen-3 fusion

Hydrogen-1 fusion

Helium-3 fusion

Explanation:

In nuclear fission, heavy nuclear disintegrate into smaller nuclei when bombarded with particles such as neutrons. Fission reaction is common among nuclei having a high atomic number such as plutonium and uranium.

Fusion occurs between two light nuclei such as hydrogen or helium. It involves the combination of two lighter elements to give a heavier element with the release of tremendous amount of energy.
