Answer: Group 1 would have the lowest electronegativity values.

Explanation:

Electronegativity is the power of an atom in a molecule to attract electrons. It is also synonymous with the oxidizing ability or non-metallic character of elements.

Generally, across a given period from left to right, electronegativity increases due to increasing nuclear charge and decreasing atomic radius ( or atomic size ). This is because there is a greater tendency for a smaller atom with higher nuclear attraction to attract electrons than a larger atom with a lower nuclear attraction due to the shielding effect of the nuclear attraction by the inner shell electrons on the outermost electrons in the larger atom.

Also, down a particular group, electronegativity generally decreases due to increasing atomic radius/size.

This is why metals are generally electropositive ( lose electrons ) and non-metals are electronegative ( gain electrons ) as they are both found more on the left and right sides of the periodic table respectively.

A mixture of hept-1-yne, hept-2-yne, and hept-3-yne was hydrogenated in the presence of a platinum catalyst until hydrogen uptak
arsen [322]

Answer:

Only one seven carbon hydrocarbon was produced.

Explanation:

  • Alkynes are reduced completely in presence of Pt/H_{2} to produce alkanes.
  • Hydrogenation in presence of Pt is a simple nucleophilic addition process where H_{2} molecule adds onto an unsaturated bond.
  • Hept-1-yne, hept-2-yne and hept-3-yne are constitutionally isomeric to each other. Hence, after complete reduction, all three alkynes produced heptane as only product.
  • So, only one seven carbon hydrocarbon was produced.

Which predictions can most likely be made?
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

C. Sb has a lower ionization energy and a lower electronegativity than I.

Explanation:

The chemical elements present higher ionization energy the higher and to the right of the periodic table they are.

Electronegativity usually increases from left to right over a period of the periodic table and from top to bottom in the groups.

When an electron passes through the magnetic field of a horseshoe magnet, the electron's?
blsea [12.9K]

When an electron passes through the magnetic field of a horseshoe magnet, the electron's direction is changed.

Path of an electron in a magnetic field

The force (F) on wire of length L carrying a current I in a magnetic field of strength B is given by the equation:

F = BIL

But Q = It and since Q = e for an electron and v = L/t you can show that :

Magnetic force on an electron = BIL = B[e/t][vt] = Bev where v is the electron velocity

In a magnetic field the force is always at right angles to the motion of the electron (Fleming's left hand rule) and so the resulting path of the electron is circular.

Therefore :

Magnetic force = Bev = mv2/r = centripetal force

v = [Ber]/m

and so you can see from these equations that as the electron slows down the radius of its orbit decreases.

If the electron enters the field at an angle to the field direction the resulting path of the electron (or indeed any charged particle) will be helical. Such motion occurs above the poles of the Earth where charges particles from the Sun spiral through the Earth's field to produce the aurorae.

A balloon is filled to a volume of 1.50 L with 3.00 moles of gas at 25 °C. With pressure and temperature held constant, what wil
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

Volume : 1.25 L

Explanation:

We are given here that the volume ( V_1 ) = 1.50 Liters, the initial moles ( held at 25 °C ) = 3.00 mol, and the final moles ( n_2 ) = 3.00 - 0.5 = 2.5 mol. The final mol is calculated given that 0.50 mol of gas are released from the prior 3.00 moles of gas.

Volume ( V_1 ) = 1.50 L,

Initial moles ( n_1 ) = 3.00 mol,

Final Volume ( n_2 ) = 3.00 - 0.5 = 2.5 mol

Applying the combined gas law, we can calculate the final volume ( V_2 ).

P_1V_1 / n_1T_1 = P_2V_2 / n_2T_2 - we know that the pressure and temperature are constant, and therefore we can apply the following formula,

V_1 / n_1 = V_2 / n_2 - isolate V_2,

V_2 = V_1 n_2 / n_1 = 1.50 L * 2.5 mol / 3.00 mol = ( 1.5 * 2.5 / 3 ) L = 1.25 L

The volume of the balloon will be 1.25 L.
