Answer:

The exceptions to the periodic trends in ionization energy are the first ionization energy of beryllium is higher than that of boron and the first ionization energy of nitrogen is also higher than that of oxygen.

Explanation:

Taking a close look at the figure of first ionization energies, it clearly shows that the first ionization energy of beryllium is higher than that of boron and the first ionization energy of nitrogen is also higher than that of oxygen.

This is as a result of Hund's rule and electron configuration. For example, the first ionization potential electron of beryllium is obtained from a 2s orbital while that of boron comes from a 2p electron. However, for oxygen and nitrogen, their electrons are obtained from 2p orbitals. While spin is uniform for all 2p electrons of nitrogen, it is different for oxygen.

7. Explain how magnetic potential energy can be transformed into kinetic energy. (1 point)

Arisa [49]

The potential energy by the magnetic field can turn into kinetic energy once the field is moving from the S pole to the N pole when it reaches the N pole it is potential energy when it exits the S pole it is kinetic energy.

A gas has a pressure of 450 mmHg at 100 degrees Celsius. What will its new pressure be when the temperature rises 200 degrees Ce

Ahat [919]

Answer:

P2 = 900 mmHg.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial pressure = 450 mmHg

Initial temperature = 100°C

Final temperature = 200°C

To find the final pressure, we would use Gay Lussac's law;

Gay Lussac states that when the volume of an ideal gas is kept constant, the pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas.

Mathematically, Gay Lussac's law is given by;

$PT = K$
