Which atom’s ionization energy is greater than that of phosphorus (P)? A. Ba B. K C. As D. Cl

Chemistry

WINSTONCH [101]3 years ago
5 0

Answer is: D. Cl (chlorine).

The ionization energy (Ei) is the minimum amount of energy required to remove the valence electron, when element lose electrons, oxidation number of element grows (oxidation process).

Barium, potassium and arsenic are metals (easily lost valence electrons), chlorine is nonmetal (easily gain electrons).

Alkaline metals (in this example, potassium) have lowest ionizations energy and easy remove valence electrons (one electron), earth alkaline metals (in this example, barium) have higher ionization energy than alkaline metals, because they have two valence electrons.

Nonmetals (in this example chlorine) are far right in the main group and they have highest ionization energy, because they have many valence electrons.

BaLLatris [955]

Half life is the time that it takes for half of the original value of some amount of a radioactive element to decay.

We have the following equation representing the half-life decay:

A=A_o\times2^{(-\frac{t}{t_{half}})_{}_{}}

A is the resulting amount after t time

Ao is the initial amount = 50 mg

t= Elapsed time

t half is the half-life of the substance = 14.3 days

We replace the know values into the equation to have an exponential decay function for a 50mg sample

A=\text{ 50 }\times2^{\frac{-t}{14.3}}

That would be the answer for a)

To know the P-32 remaining after 84 days we have to replace this value in the equation:

\begin{gathered} A=\text{ 50 }\times2^{\frac{-84}{14.3}} \\ A=0.85\text{ mg} \end{gathered}

So, after 84 days the P-32 remaining will be 0.85 mg

Given the following list of densities, which materials would float in a molten vat of lead provided that they do not themselves
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

b. glass and charcoal

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Density of Pb: 11.4 g/mL
  • Density of Glass: 2.6 g/mL
  • Density of Au: 19.3 g/mL
  • Density of charcoal: 0.57 g/mL
  • Density of platinum: 21.4 g/mL

Step 2: Determine which material will float in molten lead

Density is an intrinsic property of matter. Less dense materials float in more dense materials. The materials whose density is lower than that of lead and will therefore float on it are glass and charcoal.
