olga55 [171]3 years ago
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-.

What is the temperature of 4.5 moles of a gas that occupies 50. mL at 1.35 atm?
devlian [24]

Answer:

T = 0.182 Kelvin

Explanation:

As we know that

PV = nRT\\

Where P is the pressure in atmospheric pressure

T is the temperature in Kelvin  

R is the gas constant  

V is the volume in liters

R = 0.08206

Substituting the given values in above equation, we get -

1.35 * \frac{50}{1000}= 4.5 * 0.08206* T\\

On rearranging, we get

T = \frac{1.35*50}{1000*0.08206*4.5} \\

T = 0.182 Kelvin

The relationship between moles and volume, when pressure and temperature of a gas are held constant, is: V/n =
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

If the moles of gas are tripled, the volume must also triple.

Explanation:

According to Avogadro law,

Equal volume of all the gases at same temperature and pressure have equal number of molecules.

The number of moles and volume are directly related to each other. By increasing the number of moles volume also goes to increase with same ratio.

When number of moles decreases the volume also goes to decrease at constant temperature and pressure.

Mathematical expression:

V ∝ n

V = Kn

V/n = k

When volume is changed from V₁ to V₂ by changing the number of moles from n₁ to n₂. Then expression will be,

V₁/n₁ = V₂/n₂

The majority of water molecules moving across plasma membranes by osmosis do so via a process that is most similar to ____.
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

The answer is Facilitated Diffusion

Explanation:

Osmosis is most similar to facilitated diffusion.

Osmosis can be defined as : Osmosis is the movement of water molecules across a semi-permeable membrane, down a concentration gradient from a low concentrated solution into a more concentrated solution.

Facilitated diffusion is defined as: Facilitated diffusion is the flow of molecules requiring the aid of a protein, across a membrane, down a concentration gradient  from a low concentrated solution into a more concentrated one.

For the reaction of hydrogen with iodine
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

r_{H_2} = \frac{-1}{2} r_{HI}

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, considering the given chemical reaction:

H_2(g) + I_2(g) \rightarrow 2HI(g)

Thus, by applying the law of rate proportions, we can write:

\frac{1}{-1} r_{H_2} = \frac{1}{-1}r_{i_2} = \frac{1}{2} r_{HI}

Whereas the stoichiometric coefficients of reactants are negative due their disappearance and that of the product is positive due to its appearance. In such a way, when we relate the rate of disappearance of hydrogen gas to the rate of formation of hydrogen iodide, we obtain:

r_{H_2} = \frac{-1}{2} r_{HI}

Best regards!
