Lithium, beryllium, and boron are elements with atomic number 3, 4, and 5, respectively. Even though they are three of the five

simplest elements, why are they rare compared to many heavier elements?
Chemistry

Papessa [141]3 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

These elements are rare because:

<u>Helium fuses into the carbon by the combination of three helium nuclei (Z = 2) and one carbon nucleus (Z = 6), therefore bypassing elements with Z= 3, 4 and 5 which are  lithium, beryllium, and boron respectively. Therefore, the fusion processes in cores of the stars do not form these three elements. </u>

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

It is an example of coupling an exogenic reaction to an endogenic reaction.

Explanation:

The endergonic reaction is typically being pushed by coupling it to strongly exergonic reaction. This is in most cases via shared intermediates. Most chemical reactions are endergonic in nature. In other word, the are not spontaneous (i.e ΔG>0). Energy must also be applied externally to initiate the reactions. The reactions can also be coupled to exergonic reactions (with  ΔG<0) to initiate them through a process known as share intermediate. Because Gibbs Energy can be summed up (i.e is a state function), the combined  ΔG  of the coupled reaction will be thermodynamically favorable.  The decomposition of calcium carbonate is a typical example.

Magnesium reacts with hydrochloric acid (HCl) as follows. Mg(s) + 2HCl(aq) --&gt;MgCl(2)+H(2)(g) How many milliliters of hydroge
max2010maxim [7]
We are given the number of moles of solid magnesium supplied for the reaction which is 0.02 moles while hydrochloric acid is supplied in excess thus we can say that the reaction proceeds to completion. Calculation is as follows:

0.020 mol Mg ( 1 mol H2 / 1 mol Mg ) = 0.020 mol H2 gas is produced

To convert the number of moles to volume, we use the conditions at STP of 1 mol of a substance is equal to 22.4 L. Thus,

0.020 mol H2 (22.4 L / 1 mol) (1000 mL / 1 L) = 448 mL

How many moles of copper atoms are in 150g of copper metal
IRINA_888 [86]
The answer to this question would be: 2.36 mol

To answer this question, you need to know the molecular weight of copper. Molecular weight determines how much the weight of 1 mol of a molecule has. Copper molecular weight about 63.5g/mol. Then, the amount of mol in 150g copper should be: 150g / (63.5g/mol)= 2.36 mol
