which atomic particle determines the chemical behavior of an atom the nucleus, neutron, electron, proton or none of these

1 answer:

7 0

The chemical behavior of an atoms is determine by the formation or destruction of chemical bonds. The chemical bonds are the result of the interaction of the electrons of the atoms. Chemical properties of the atoms are given by how attached are the shell electrons attached to the nucleus and how they interact with other atoms. Chemical changes are the result of exchange valence electrons of the atoms. So, <span>the answer is the atomic particle that determines the chemical behavior of an atom is the electron, because it is the particle that is active in chemical bonding.</span>

A civil engineering student is considering buying an electric car. However, the conscious student wants to make sure her carbon

svetlana [45]

Answer:

$\text{An gasoline-powered vehicle has }\\\boxed{\text{five times the carbon footprint}}\text{ of an electric vehicle.}$

Explanation:

1. Miles travelled in an average month

$\text{Miles} = \text{1 mo} \times \dfrac{\text{52 wk}}{\text{12 mo}} \times \dfrac{\text{5 da}}{\text{1 wk}} \times \dfrac{\text{16 mi}}{\text{1 da}} = \text{347 mi}$

2. Using a gasoline powered vehicle

(a) Moles of heptane used

$n = \text{347 mi} \times \dfrac{\text{1 gal}}{\text{36.5 mi}}\times \dfrac{\text{3.785 L}}{\text{1 gal}} \times \dfrac{\text{679.5 g}}{\text{1L}} \times \dfrac{ \text{1 mol}}{\text{100.20 g}}= \text{244 mol}$

(b) Equation for combustion

C₇H₁₆ + O₂ ⟶ 7CO₂ + 8H₂O

(c) Moles of CO₂ formed

$n = \text{244 mol heptane} \times \dfrac{\text{7 mol CO$_{2}$}}{\text{1 mol heptane}} = \text{1710 mol CO$_{2}$}$

(d) Volume of CO₂ formed

At 20 °C and 1 atm, the molar volume of a gas is 24.0 L.

$V = \text{1710 mol } \times \dfrac{\text{24.0 L}}{\text{1 mol}} \times \dfrac{\text{1 gal}}{\text{3.785 L}} = \textbf{10 800 gal}$

3. Using an electric vehicle

(a) Theoretical energy used

$\text{Theor. Energy} = \text{347 mi} \times \dfrac{\text{1 kWh}}{\text{5.2 mi}} = \text{66.7 kWh theor.}$

(b) Actual energy used

The power station is only 85 % efficient.

$\text{Actual energy used} = \text{66.7 kWh theor.} \times \dfrac{\text{100 kWh actual}}{\text{ 85 kWh theor.}}\times \dfrac{\text{3600 kJ}}{\text{1 kWh}}\\\\ = 2.82\times 10^{5} \text{ kJ}\$

(c) Combustion of CH₄

CH₄ + 2O₂ ⟶ CO₂ +2 H₂O

(d) Equivalent volume of CO₂

The heat of combustion of methane is -802.3 kJ·mol⁻¹

$V= 2.82\times 10^{5}\text{ kJ} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol methane}}{\text{802.3 kJ}} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol CO$_{2}$} }{\text{1 mol methane}} \times \dfrac{ \text{24.0 L}}{ \text{1 mol CO$_{2}$}}\\\\ \times \dfrac{\text{1 gal}}{\text{3.875 L}} = \textbf{2180 gal}$

4. Comparison

$\dfrac{V_{\text{gasoline}}}{V_{\text{electric}}} = \dfrac{10800}{2180} = 5.0\\\\ \text{An gasoline-powered vehicle has }\\ \boxed{\textbf{ five times the carbon footprint}}\text{ of an electric vehicle.}$

Which compound does not form a precipitate when reacted with sodium hydroxide?

Alla [95]

Answer:

NaNO₃

Explanation:

A precipitate is a compound or a salt formed from a precipitation reaction and does not dissolve in water and therefore will exist in solid state.

From the choices given precipitation reaction will occur between;

Fe(NO₃)₃(aq) + 3NaOH(aq) → Fe(OH)₃(s) + 3NaNO₃(aq)
Cu(NO₃)₂(aq) + 2NaOH(aq) → Cu(OH)₂(s) + 2NaNO₃(aq)
FeSO₄(aq) + 2NaOH(aq) → Fe(OH)₂(s) + Na₂SO₄(aq)

Fe(OH)₃, Cu(OH)₂, and Fe(OH)₂ are precipitates.

From the rules of solubility, hydroxides are insoluble except Ca(OH)₂ which is slightly soluble and hydroxides of ammonium and alkali metals.

Select the correct scientist for each of the following advances in creating the modern periodic table.

sergey [27]

Answer:

Lavoisier; Newlands; Moseley

Explanation:

In 1789, Antoine Lavoisier grouped the elements into gases, nonmetals, metals, and earths.

In 1865, John Newlands developed the Law of Octaves. He stated that "any given element will exhibit analogous behaviour to the eighth element following it in the table."

In 1914, Henry Moseley found a correlation between the X-ray wavelength of an element and its atomic number. He was then able to restructure the periodic table according to atomic numbers.
