Answer:
d an attraction between positive ions and electrons
Let's assume that the gas has ideal gas behavior.
Then we can use ideal gas equation,
PV = nRT
Where, P is Pressure of the gas (Pa), V is volume of the gas (m³), n is the number of moles of gas (mol), R is the Universal gas constant (8.314 J mol⁻¹ K⁻¹) and T is the temperature in Kelvin (K)
The given data for the gas is,
P = 2.8 atm = 283710 Pa
V = 98 L = 98 x 10⁻³ m³
T = 292 K
R = 8.314 J mol⁻¹ K⁻¹
n = ?
By applying the formula,
283710 Pa x 98 x 10⁻³ m³ = n x 8.314 J mol⁻¹ K⁻¹ x 292 K
n = 11.45 mol
Hence,moles of gas is 11.45 mol.
You should take note that the question is about stability. A compound is stable if it does not easily react with other elements. Hence, its reactivity must be low. As you move down the group, reactivity decreases. So, the halide at the very bottom is the least reactive. It would then be logical that the most stable conjugate base is I⁻ and the least stable conjugate base is the most reactive which is F⁻.
Please provide the choices here.
The similarity of the bands in the crystal of a metal to the atomic orbitals can be explained by the band theory of metals. In an atom, when the electrons get excited, the electrons jumps to a higher orbital so as to reach equilibrium. This is analogous to the electrons in the metals which also jumps to another band once excited by an external energy (e.g. electrical energy).
