When a neutral atom that has a charge of negative absorbs an electron, this tends to lessen the size of the ion. The larger the negative charge of the negatively charged element, the smaller the size of the ion will be. Hence the answer is that the ion will have a smaller size than the neutral atom

Answer is: The atomic size of the chlorine ion is larger than the size of the chlorine atom.

Covalent radii of chlorine atom (Cl) is 0.099 nm and ionic radii of chlorine anion (Cl⁻) is 0.181 nm.

Difference between an chlorine atom and chlorine anion is the number of electrons that surround the nucleus.

Chlorine atom has 17 electrons and chlorine anion has 18 electrons.

The formation constant for the reaction ag (aq) 2nh3(aq) ag(nh3)2 (aq) is kf = 1.7 × 107 at 25°c. what is δg° at this temperatur
anzhelika [568]

The value of ΔG° at this temperature is -18034.18 J/mol

Calculation,

Given information

formation constant (Kf)= 1.7 × 10^{7}

Universal gas constant (R) = 8.314 J/K• mol

Temperature = 25° C = 25 °C + 273 = 300 K

Formula used:

ΔG° = -RT㏑Kf

By putting the valur of R,T, Kf we get the value of ΔG°

ΔG° = - 8.314 J/K• mol×300K㏑ 1.7 × 10^{7}

ΔG° = -2494.2㏑ 1.7 × 10^{7} = -18034.18 J/mol

So, change in standard Gibbs's free energy is -18034.18 J/mol

Can I find a tutor to help me with this question?
Eddi Din [679]

INFORMATION:

We have the following statements

And we must complete them

STEP BY STEP EXPLANATION:

To complete the statements, we need to classify matter according to its state:

- Solid:

there is not enough thermal energy to overcome the intermolecular interactions between the particles. As a result, solids have a definite shape and volume.

- Liquid:

That describes the liquid state. In a liquid, the particles are still in close contact, so liquids have a definite volume. However, because the particles can move about each other rather freely, a liquid has no definite shape and takes a shape dictated by its container.

- Gas:

That describes the gas state, which we will consider in more detail elsewhere. Like liquids, gases have no definite shape, but unlike solids and liquids, gases have no definite volume either.

Finally, we know that:

- A solid has a definite volume and has a definite shape

- A liquid has a definite volume and has not a definite shape

- A gas has not a definite volume and has not a definite shape

ANSWER:

- A solid has a definite volume and has a definite shape

- A liquid has a definite volume and has not a definite shape

- A gas has not a definite volume and has not a definite shape

What is the pH of 15 mL of .2 M HCl
fenix001 [56]
Easy peasy! All we need to do is plug this formula into our calculator:

-log(M)

So, we'd plug in -log(.2), which is 0.7 :)
