Answer:

2 upper H plus (a q) plus e superscript minus right arrow upper H subscript 2 (g)

Or 2H^+(aq) + e^- => H2(g)

Explanation:

That is the answer because reduction means gain of electron.

In the selected option, hydrogen being deficient of one electron gains one electron to be librated as hydrogen gas.

Other options are wrong because zinc atom is not deficient of electrons and cannot gain more electrons at that state.

2 upper H superscript plus (a q) plus 2 e superscript minus right arrow upper H subscript 2 (g).

The above option is not the right option because hydrogen does not gain two electrons to be librated. It is a group 1 element and so can only gain 1 electron.

A truck is moving at the rate of 40 km/hr. How far does it move when it stops after 5 seconds?
seraphim [82]
First of all, this is the chemistry section, while your question is a physics question. Anyway I'll tell you how to solve it.

First we need to find the rate that the truck moves in a second.

1km = 1000m
40km = 40000m
40000m/hr
1 hour = 60 minutes
40000m/hr ÷ 60 = 666.66(repeating)/minute
1 minute = 60 seconds
666.66m/min ÷ 60 = 11.11(rep)m/s

Next we simply multiply the speed of the truck by the number of seconds it travels.

11.11 × 5 = 55.55
Make sure to round it unless you indicate the repeating decimal.
The truck moved 55.56m in 5 seconds.

Give the ground-state electron configuration for each of the following elements. After each atom is its atomic number in parenth
Anni [7]

Answer:

(a) ₁₉K: 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s¹

(b) ₁₀Ne: 1s² 2s² 2p⁶

---

(a) 3

(b) 6

(c) 7

Explanation:

We can state the ground-state electron configuration for each element following Aufbau's principle.

(a) ₁₉K: 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s¹

(b) ₁₀Ne: 1s² 2s² 2p⁶

Second part

(a) Al belongs to Group 13 in the Periodic Table. It has 13-10=3 electrons in the valence shell.

(b) O belongs to Group 16 in the Periodic Table. It has 16-10=6 electrons in the valence shell.

(c) F belongs to Group 17 in the Periodic Table. It has 17-10=7 electrons in the valence shell.

For a chemical reaction to be spontaneous at all temperatures, which of the following conditions must be met? a. ΔS° > 0, ΔH°
ladessa [460]

Answer:

b. ΔS° > 0, ΔH° < 0

Explanation:

According the equation of Gibb's free energy -

∆°G = ∆°H -T∆°S

∆°G = is the change in gibb's free energy

∆°H = is the change in enthalpy

T = temperature

∆°S = is the change in entropy .

And , the sign of the  Δ°G , determines whether the reaction is Spontaneous or non - Spontaneous or at equilibrium ,

i.e. ,

if

  • Δ°G < 0 , the reaction is Spontaneous
  • Δ°G > 0 , the reaction is non - Spontaneous
  • Δ°G = 0 , the reaction is at equilibrium

The reaction has the value for ∆°H < 0 i.e. negative, and ∆°S > 0 i.e. , positive

Now ,

∆°G = ∆°H -T∆°S

= ( - ∆°H ) - T( + ∆°S )

= ( - ∆°H ) - T( ∆°S )  

∆°G = negative

Hence ,

Δ°G < 0 , the reaction is Spontaneous  .
