Answer:

a) Change in internal energy of the system = - 135.2 J

b) Change in internal energy of the environment = 135.2 J

Explanation:

From the mathematical statement of the first law of thermodynamics,

ΔU = Q - W

ΔU = Change in internal energy of the system = ?

Q = heat transferred into or out of the system. For this system, heat is transferred into it, Q = 77.8 J

W = workdone = 213 J (positive because work is done by the system on the environment)

ΔU = 77.8 - 213 = - 135.2 J

The change in internal energy of the environment is just the negative of that of the system. The balance is always so.

Hence, change in internal energy of the environment = -(- 135.2) = 135.2 J

If an element has 2+ valence electrons, does it transfer only one or more than one valence electrons​
just olya [345]

Answer:

element having 2+ valence electrons can transfer its more than one electron that is 2 electron completely.

Explanation:

  • Group IIA have 2+ valency and two electrons in its valance shell.
  • Its Electropositivity is  high and have the tendency to donate it two electrons.
  • Element  of IIA form ionic with most electronegative element.

Examples:

Cu²⁺, Mg²⁺, Sr²⁺ are examples having  2+ valance electron

one of the following is examples of element that have 2+ valence electrons

MgCl₂

Atomic number of Magnesium (Mg) is 12

Electronic Configuration of Mg:

1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s²

or

K =2

L = 8

M = 2

So, it have to give its 2 electrons to form a stable compound.

Similarly

Chlorine atomic number is 17

Electronic Configuration of Chlorine:

1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁵

or

K =2

L = 8

M = 7

So, it have to gain one electrons to form a stable compound and complete its octet.

So,

Two chlorine atom as a molecule gain 2 electrons from Mg²⁺ atom

So one Mg²⁺ and 2 Cl⁻ atoms form an ionic bond

where in this ionic bond Mg²⁺ transfer its 2 valence electron completely and chlorine molecule accept 2 electrons.

                 Cl-----Mg------Cl

So the Answer is

element having 2+ valence electrons can transfer its more than one electron that is 2 electron completely.

Water vapor changing to liquid water
kiruha [24]

Explanation:

When water vapour changes to liquid water then this process is known as condensation.

For example, when lid is placed in a hot water filled pan then after sometime vapours appear on the surface of lid. When temperature of water decreases then water vapours convert into liquid form.

Thus, we can conclude that in condensation water vapor changes to liquid water.

An unkown element has been found to occur in two different stable isotopes. One isotope has an abundance of 57.21 percent and ha
NeX [460]

Answer: 121.7558 amu

Explanation:

Average atomic mass of the unknown element =

(Mass of isotope 1 x Relative Abundance of Isotope 1) + ( Mass of Isotope 2 x Relative Abundance of Isotope 2)

(120.9 x 0.5721) + (122.9 x 0.4279) = 69.16689 + 52.58891

Average mass of the unknown element = 121.7558 amu
