How does a lithium cation compare to a lithium atom?

2 answers:

6 0

The correct answer is gonna be C) A lithium cation ion is smaller

A lithium cation has lost its valence electrons, which causes the remaining electrons to be pulled in stronger by the positive charge in the nucleus. As they get closer to the nucleus, the overall size of the atom is decreased.

The decomposition of dinitrogen pentoxide, N2O5, to NO2 and O2 is a first-order reaction. At 60°C, the rate constant is 2.8 × 10

Sati [7]

Answer:

a. 113 min

Explanation:

Considering the equilibrium:-

2N₂O₅ ⇔ 4NO₂ + O₂

At t = 0 125 kPa

At t = teq 125 - 2x 4x x

Thus, total pressure = 125 - 2x + 4x + x = 125 - 3x

125 - 3x = 176 kPa

x = 17 kPa

Remaining pressure of N₂O₅ = 125 - 2*17 kPa = 91 kPa

Using integrated rate law for first order kinetics as:

$[A_t]=[A_0]e^{-kt}$

Where,

$[A_t]$ is the concentration at time t

$[A_0]$ is the initial concentration

Given that:

The rate constant, k = $2.8\times 10^{-3}$ min⁻¹

Initial concentration $[A_0]$ = 125 kPa

Final concentration $[A_t]$ = 91 kPa

Time = ?

Applying in the above equation, we get that:-

$91=125e^{-2.8\times 10^{-3}\times t}$

$125e^{-2.8\times \:10^{-3}t}=91$

$-2.8\times \:10^{-3}t=\ln \left(\frac{91}{125}\right)$

$t=113\ min$

Are two atoms of the same element identical??

Neko [114]

No. Although two such atoms are essentially chemically identical (they will chemically react in the same way), they are not completely identical.

When 1.98g of a hydrocarbon is burned in a bomb calorimeter, the temperature increases by 2.06∘C. If the heat capacity of the ca

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

8.3 kJ

Explanation:

In this problem we have to consider that both water and the calorimeter absorb the heat of combustion, so we will calculate them:

q for water:

q H₂O = m x c x ΔT where m: mass of water = 944 mL x 1 g/mL = 944 g

c: specific heat of water = 4.186 J/gºC

ΔT : change in temperature = 2.06 ºC

so solving for q :

q H₂O = 944 g x 4.186 J/gºC x 2.06 ºC = 8,140 J

For calorimeter

q calorimeter = C x ΔT where C: heat capacity of calorimeter = 69.6 ºC

ΔT : change in temperature = 2.06 ºC

q calorimeter = 69.60J x 2.06 ºC = 143.4 J

Total heat released = 8,140 J + 143.4 J = 8,2836 J

Converting into kilojoules by dividing by 1000 we will have answered the question:

8,2836 J x 1 kJ/J = 8.3 kJ

At a certain temperature, 0.900 mol of SO3 is placed in a 2.00-L container.

Goryan [66]

Answer:

Kc = 2.34 mol*L

Explanation:

The calculation of the Kc of a reaction is performed using the values of the concentrations of the participants in the equilibrium.

A + B ⇄ C + D

Kc = [C] * [D] / [A] * [B]

According to the reaction

Kc = [SO2]^2 * [O2]^2 / [SO3]^2

Knowing the 0.900 mol of SO3 is placed in a 2.00-L it means we have a 0.450 mol/L of SO3

0.450 --> 0 + 0 (Beginning of the reaction)

0.260 --> 0.260 + 0.130 (During the reaction)

0.190 --> 0.260 + 0.130 (Equilibrium of the reaction)

Kc = [0.260]^2 + [0.130]^2 / [0.190]^2

Kc = 2.34 mol*L
