When magnesium ion doesn't give any characteristics colour with the flame test as electronic transisitons do not give out visible light.
Answer:
0.48 V
Explanation:
Zn(s) ------------> Zn^2+(aq) + 2e. Oxidation half equation (-0.76V)
Co^2+(aq) + 2e-----------> Co(s). Reduction half equation (-0.28)
Zn(s) + Co^2+(aq) -------------> Zn^2+(aq) + Co(s) overall redox equation
Zinc is the anode while cobalt is the cathode.
E°cell= E°cathode - E°anode
E°cell= -0.28-(-0.76)= 0.48 V
<span>The metal that would more easily lose an electron would be potassium. It is more reactive than sodium. Also, looking on the periodic table, </span><span>from top to bottom for groups 1 and 2, reactivity increases. So, it should be potassium. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>
Answer:
The eight protons in oxygen atom's nucleus will exert more force than nitrogen's seven electrons. Also, oxygen has same number of shells as nitrogen. Thus electrons in oxygen atom will be closer to nucleus than in the case of nitrogen. When electrons are closer it means atomic radius is smaller.
Hope this helps! :)
