Basile [38]3 years ago

6 0

Answer:

b. Lower molar mass.

Explanation:

Thomas Graham found that, at a constant temperature and pressure the rates of effusion of various gases are inversely proportional to the square root of their masses.

∨ ∝ 1/√M.

where, ∨ is the rate of diffusion of the gas.

M is the molar mass of the gas.

As the gas has a lower molar mass, it will have a higher rate of effusion.

Write the charge and full ground-state electron configuration of the monatomic ion most likely to be formed by each:

Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

Part A:

Charge is $P^{3-}$

Configuration is $1s^2 2s^22p^63s^23p^6$

Part B:

Charge is $Mg^{2+}$

Configuration is $1s^2 2s^22p^6$

Part C:

Charge is $Se^{2-}$

Configuration is $1s^2 2s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d^{10}4p^6$

Explanation:

Monatomic ions:

These ions consist of only one atom. If they have more than one atom then they are poly atomic ions.

Examples of Mono Atomic ions: $Na^+, Cl^-, Ca^2^+$

Part A:

For P:

Phosphorous (P) has 15 electrons so it require 3 more electrons to stabilize itself.

Charge is $P^{3-}$

Full ground-state electron configuration of the mono atomic ion:

$1s^2 2s^22p^63s^23p^6$

Part B:

For Mg:

Magnesium (Mg) has 12 electrons so it requires 2 electrons to lose to achieve stable configuration.

Charge is $Mg^{2+}$

Full ground-state electron configuration of the mono atomic ion:

$1s^2 2s^22p^6$

Part C:

For Se:

Selenium (Se) has 34 electrons and requires two electrons to be stable.

Charge is $Se^{2-}$

Full ground-state electron configuration of the mono atomic ion:

$1s^2 2s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d^{10}4p^6$

How do you find the volume of a liquid

mart [117]

Today they will practice measuring different liquids. They will use a container called a graduated cylinder to measure liquids. Graduated cylinders have numbers on the side that help you determine the volume. Volume is measured in units called liters or fractions of liters called milliliters (ml).

What is the volume of 40g of sugar given it’s listed density

lora16 [44]

Answer:

25.157 cm³

Explanation:

Data Given:

Mass of Sugar (m) = 40g

Density of sugar given in literature = 1.59 g/cm³

Volume of Sugar = ?

The formula will be used is

d = m/v ........................................... (1)

where

D is density

m is the mass

v is the volume

Rearrange the Equation (1)

d x v = m

v = m/ d ................................................ (2)

put the given values in Equation (2)

v = 40g / 1.59 g/cm³

v = 25.157 cm³

volume of 40 g of sugar = 25.157 cm³
