Which of the following pairs of elements could possibly be in the same group? X has a 1+ ion; Y has a 1- ion. X tends to form a

2+ ion; Y tends to gain two electrons. X will tend to gain one electron; Y has eight valence electrons. X has an atomic number 15; Y forms a 3- ion.

Let's eliminate these one by one.
The first pair would not be the same, as X would most likely be in group IA, and Y would be in group VIIA, because of their tendency to gain and lose electrons.
The second pair would also violate the same rule, but X would most likely be in group IIA, and Y would most likely be in group VIA.
The third pair would not be the same, as X is most likely in group VIIA, and since Y has eight valence electrons, it is most likely a noble gas.
The final pair has X with atomic number 15, making it phosphorous. Phosphorous wants to gain 3 electrons to have a full octet of 8 outer "valence" electrons, and Y would also like to gain 3 electrons. This means it is possible that the final pair would be in the same group.

Answer is: X has an atomic number 15; Y forms a 3- ion.

1)  X has a 1+ ion; Y has a 1- ion is not correct, because X is probably metal (lost one electron, group 1) and Y is nonmetal (gain one electron, group 17).

2) X tends to form a 2+ ion; Y tends to gain two electrons is not correct, because X lost two electrons (probably metal from group 2).

3) X will tend to gain one electron; Y has eight valence electrons is not correct, because X is probably from group 17 and Y is noble gas (group 18).

4) Y is phosphorus (atomic number 15, group 15) and Y is nonmetal from group 15.

What would you do to change a saturated solid/liquid solution to an unsaturated solution
Semenov [28]

Explanation:

Saturated solid/liquid solution is changed to an unsaturated solution by the dilution process.

When the saturated solution is diluted by addition large quantity of solvent it changed to an unsaturated solution.

Saturated solid/liquid solution can also be changed to an unsaturated solution by increasing the temperature or heating the solution.

A saturated solution is a solution where further solute will not dissolve in the solvent.

An unsaturated solution is a solution in which has the ability to dissolve more solute.

Which measure of a gas does the expression
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

A. volume

Explanation:

Generally the equation for the  ideal gas  is mathematically given as  

PV=nRT

Where  

P=pressure  

V=volume  

R=gas constant  

n=Number of Moles  

T=Temperature

 

Therefore  

V=nRT/P  

Option A

At what temperature is the following reaction feasible: HCl(g) + NH3(g) -> NH4Cl(s)?
Nutka1998 [239]
Energy is distributed not just in translational KE, but also in rotation, vibration and also distributed in electronic energy levels (if input great enough, bond breaks).

All four forms of energy are quantised and the quanta ‘gap’ differences increases from trans. KE ==> electronic.

Entropy (S) and energy distribution: The energy is distributed amongst the energy levels in the particles to maximise their entropy.

Entropy is a measure of both the way the particles are arranged AND the ways the quanta of energy can be arranged.

We can apply ΔSθsys/surr/tot ideas to chemical changes to test feasibility of a reaction:

ΔSθtot = ΔSθsys +  ΔSθsurr

ΔSθtot must be >=0 for a chemical change to be feasible.

For example: CaCO3(s) ==> CaO(s) + CO2(g) 

ΔSθsys = ΣSθproducts – ΣSθreactants 

ΔSθsys = SθCaO(s) + SθCO2(g) – SθCaCO3(s) 

ΔSθsurr is –ΔHθ/T(K) and ΔH is very endothermic (very +ve),

Now ΔSθsys is approximately constant with temperature and at room temperature the ΔSθsurr term is too negative for ΔSθtot to be plus overall.

But, as the temperature is raised, the ΔSθsurr term becomes less negative and eventually at about 800oCΔSθtot becomes plus overall (and ΔGθ becomes negative), so the decomposition is now chemically, and 'commercially' feasible in a lime kiln.

CaCO3(s) ==> CaO(s) + CO2(g)  ΔHθ = +179 kJ mol–1  (very endothermic)

This important industrial reaction for converting limestone (calcium carbonate) to lime (calcium oxide) has to be performed at high temperatures in a specially designed limekiln – which these days, basically consists of a huge rotating angled ceramic lined steel tube in which a mixture of limestone plus coal/coke/oil/gas? is fed in at one end and lime collected at the lower end. The mixture is ignited and excess air blasted through to burn the coal/coke and maintain a high operating temperature.
ΔSθsys = ΣSθproducts – ΣSθreactants
ΔSθsys = SθCaO(s) + SθCO2(g) – SθCaCO3(s) = (40.0) + (214.0) – (92.9) = +161.0 J mol–1 K–1
ΔSθsurr is –ΔHθ/T = –(179000/T)
ΔSθtot = ΔSθsys +  ΔSθsurr
ΔSθtot = (+161) + (–179000/T) = 161 – 179000/T
If we then substitute various values of T (in Kelvin) you can calculate when the reaction becomes feasible.
For T = 298K (room temperature)

ΔSθtot = 161 – 179000/298 = –439.7 J mol–1 K–1, no good, negative entropy change

For T = 500K (fairly high temperature for an industrial process)

ΔSθtot = 161 – 179000/500 = –197.0, still no good

For T = 1200K (limekiln temperature)

ΔSθtot = 161 – 179000/1200 = +11.8 J mol–1 K–1, definitely feasible, overall positive entropy change

Now assuming ΔSθsys is approximately constant with temperature change and at room temperature the ΔSθsurr term is too negative for ΔSθtot to be plus overall. But, as the temperature is raised, the ΔSθsurr term becomes less negative and eventually at about 800–900oC ΔSθtot becomes plus overall, so the decomposition is now chemically, and 'commercially' feasible in a lime kiln.
You can approach the problem in another more efficient way by solving the total entropy expression for T at the point when the total entropy change is zero. At this point calcium carbonate, calcium oxide and carbon dioxide are at equilibrium.
ΔSθtot–equilib = 0 = 161 – 179000/T, 179000/T = 161, T = 179000/161 = 1112 K

This means that 1112 K is the minimum temperature to get an economic yield. Well at first sight anyway. In fact because the carbon dioxide is swept away in the flue gases so an equilibrium is never truly attained so limestone continues to decompose even at lower temperatures.
