6 0

Answer:

K+ < Cl- < S2- < P3-.

Explanation:

The electronic configuration of K is 2,8,8,1. So,K has 19 electrons.Hence,K+ will have 18 electrons.

Similarly,electronic configuration of P is 2,8,5. So,P has 15 electrons.Hence,P^3- will have 18 electrons .

Similarly,electronic configuration of S is 2,8,6. So, S has 16 electrons. Hence,S^2- will have 18 electrons.

Similarly,electronic configuration of Cl is 2,8,7. So,Cl has 17 electrons.Hence,Cl^ 1- will have 18 electrons .

As,all of these species are isoelectronic, so the smallest radius among these will be of that which possesses more amount of +ve charge on it.The reason is that a species having +ve charge on it will be effectively able to attract the outermost valence electrons to the nucleus.

Hence,the order of increasing order of radii is as follows:

K+ < Cl- < S2- < P3-.

A student is titrating 50 mL of 0.32 M NH3 with 0.5 M HCl. How much hydrochloric acid must be added to react completely with the
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

The volume of HCl to be added to completely react with the ammonia is 0.032 L or 32mL

Explanation:

Using the formula

Ca Va = Cb Vb

Cb = 0.32 M

Vb = 50 mL = 50/1000 = 0.050L

Ca = 0.5 M

Va =?

Substituting for Va in the equation, we obtain:

Va = Cb Vb / Ca

Va = 0.32 * 0.05 / 0.5

Va = 0.016 / 0.5

Va = 0.032 L

The volume of HCl to be added to completely react with the ammonia is 0.032 L or 32mL

How many Hydrogen atoms are in 4HN₃?
Kazeer [188]
4 Hydrogen Atoms should be correct. Because the 4 infront of it signifies the amount of hydrogen. It would also be 4 hydrogen atoms if it were written as H4N3, because the 4 is still around the H (as long as the 4 is under scored)

The equilibrium constant for the gas phase reaction
stellarik [79]
The equilibrium constant is found by [product]/[reactant]

If the equilibrium constant is very small, such as 4.20 * 10^-31, then that means at equilibrium there is very little product and a lot of reactant.
And likewise, if there is a lot of product formed, and very little reactant, then the K value will be very large, which tells us that it is predominantly product.

At equilibrium, for any reaction, there will always be some reactant and some product present. There cannot be zero reactant or zero product. Also keep in mind that the equilibrium constant is dependent on temperature.

At equilibrium, for your reaction, it is predominantly reactants.
