What do you look at to tell the reactivity of an atom?

Chemistry

8 0

Answer:

The number of electrons in the outermost shell of an atom determines its reactivity. Noble gases have low reactivity because they have full electron shells. Halogens are highly reactive because they readily gain an electron to fill their outermost shell.

Hydrogen produced from a hydrolysis reaction was collected over water and the following data was compiled.
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

  • 0.00358 mol

Explanation:

<u>1) Data:</u>

a) V = 93.90 ml

b) T = 28°C

c) P₁ = 744 mmHg

d) P₂ = 28.25 mmHg

d) n = ?

<u>2) Conversion of units</u>

a) V = 93.90 ml × 1.000 liter / 1,000 ml = 0.09390 liter

b) T = 28°C = 28 + 273.15 K = 301.15 K

c) P₁ = 744 mmHg × 1 atm / 760 mmHg = 0.9789 atm

d) P₂ = 28.5 mmHg × 1 atm / 760 mmHg = 0.0375 atm

<u>3) Chemical principles and formulae</u>

a) The total pressure of a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of each gas. Hence, the partical pressure of the hydrogen gas collected is equal to the total pressure less the vapor pressure of water.

b) Ideal gas equation: pV = nRT

<u>4) Solution:</u>

a) Partial pressure of hydrogen gas: 0.9789 atm - 0.0375 atm = 0.9414 atm

b) Moles of hygrogen gas:

pV = nRT ⇒ n = pV / (RT) =

n =  (0.9414 atm × 0.09390 liter) / (0.0821 atm-liter /K-mol × 301.15K) =

n = 0.00358 mol (which is rounded to 3 significant figures) ← answer

Why glucose and fructose produce same shaped products with phenylhydrazine?
NemiM [27]

During the reaction of glucose and fructose with excess phenylhydrazine to form osazone, only the C-1andC-2 atoms of glucose and fructose participate in the reaction. The rest of the molecule remains intact. Hence, glucose and fructose produce the same osazone.

Adding O2 to the reaction 6CO2 + 6H2O C6H12O6 + 6O2. WHICH WAY WILL THE REACTION SHIFT?
Oxana [17]

Answer:

The reaction will shift to the left to produce more reactants.

Explanation:

According to the Le- Chatelier principle,

At equilibrium state when stress is applied to the system, the system will behave in such a way to nullify the stress.

The equilibrium can be disturb,

By changing the concentration

By changing the volume

By changing the pressure

By changing the temperature

Consider the following chemical reaction.

Chemical reaction:

6CO₂ +  6H₂O  ⇄  C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

In this reaction the equilibrium is disturb by increasing the concentration of Product.

When the concentration of product is increased the system will proceed in backward direction in order to regain the equilibrium. Because when product concentration is high it means reaction is not on equilibrium state. As the concentration of O₂  increased the reaction proceed in backward direction to regain the equilibrium state and more reactant is formed.
