Jobisdone [24]2 years ago
5 0
Options are as follow,

A. The ionization energy decreases because the ratio of the protons to electrons increases.
B. The ionization energy increases because the ratio of the protons to electrons increases.
C. The ionization energy decreases because the ratio of the protons to electrons decreases.
<span>D. The ionization energy increases because the ratio of the protons to electrons decreases.
</span>
Answer:
            Option-B (The ionization energy increases because the ratio of the protons to electrons increases).

Explanation:
                  Ionization energy is the amount of energy required to remove one electron from the valence shell of an atom.
                  Also, first IE is energy required for removing electron from neutral atom, 2nd IE is energy required for is for removing electron from a mono positive atom and so on.
                  Example:
                                  1st IE of Na is 495.8 kJ/mol

                                   2nd IE of Na is 4562.4 kJ/mol

Second ionization energy is greater because after the removal of first electron the ratio of protons to electrons increases, resulting in more nuclear effect. Also, the second IE is greater because the Na⁺ having noble gas configuration is a stable state, hence more energy is required to knock out electron from it.

LenKa [72]

Answer: The correct option is A.

Explanation: The given molecules are the molecules of same element.

These molecules are considered as diatomic species.

Polar molecules are the molecules in which some polarity is present in the bond. These molecules are formed when there is some difference in the electronegativities of the elements. Example: HCl

Non-polar molecules are the molecules where no polarity is present in the bond. These molecules are formed when there is no difference in the electronegativities of the elements. Example: H_2, O_2

The given molecules are non-polar in nature.

Hence, these molecules must be non-polar. So, the correct option is A.

Iron has density 7.87 g/cm^3. if 52.4 g of iron is added to 75.0 mL of water in a graduated cylinder, to what volume reading wil
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

6.66 mL

Explanation:

The increase in the volume is due to the addition of the iron whose volume can be calculated as:

Using,

Density = Mass / Volume

Given that:

Density of Iron = 7.87 g/cm³

Mass of iron = 52.4 g

Thus, volume is:

Volume = Mass / Density = 52.4 / 7.87 cm³ = 6.66 cm³

Also, 1 cm³ = 1 mL

<u>The rise in the volume = 6.66 mL</u>
