Explanation:

When energy is released by the molecules of a substance in a reaction then it is known as an exothermic reaction. And, a reaction in which heat energy is absorbed by the molecules of a substance is known as an endothermic reaction.

When we move from top to bottom in a group of periodic table then there will occur an increase in atomic radius of the elements. This also means that the number of protons and electrons also increases on moving from top to bottom.

Also, for an exothermic reaction,

        E^{+}(g) + e^{-} \rightarrow E(g) + Energy

where,  E = any atom

Since, Al, Na and Rb are all metals so, they will readily lose electrons in order to attain stability. On the other hand, Cl and I are non-metals so, they will readily gain electrons in order to become stable anions in nature.

As the size of chlorine is smaller than iodine. So, chlorine will not easily lose an electron hence, it will have high electron affinity.

Also, when an electron is added to a gaseous isolated atom then then energy released is known as electron gain enthalpy.

Thus, we can conclude that electron gain enthalpy name is given to the energy for the reaction.

How does temperature affect winds all<br> over the globe?
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

The differences in atmospheric pressure generate winds.

Explanation:

At the Equator, the sun warms the water and land more than it does the rest of the world. Warm equatorial air rises higher into the atmospher and migrates towards the poles. The complex relationships between fronts cause different types of winds and weather patterns.

I hope this helps :)

The average rate of consumption of br− is 1.86×10−4 m/s over the first two minutes. what is the average rate of formation of br2
Scorpion4ik [409]
By considering the reaction equation is:
5Br(aq)+BrO3(aq)+6H(aq)= 3Br2(aq)+3H2O(l)
when the average rate of consumption of Br = 1.86x10^-4 m/s
So from the reaction equation 
5Br → 3Br2 when we measure the average rate of formation (X) during the same interval So,
∴ 1.86x10^-4/5 = X / 3
∴X = 1.1 x 10^-4 m/s
∴the average rate of formation of Br2 = 1.1x10^-4 m/s
