Which catalyzed reaction breaks up ozone?

Chemistry
1 answer:
bekas [8.4K]3 years ago
4 0

This is a good example of homogeneous catalysis where everything is present as a gas.

Ozone, O3, is constantly being formed and broken up again in the high atmosphere by the action of ultraviolet light. Ordinary oxygen molecules absorb ultraviolet light and break into individual oxygen atoms. These have unpaired electrons, and are known as free radicals. They are very reactive.

Arrange the following atoms in order of increasing first ionization energy: He, Be, Se, Ne
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

Be (899 kj/mol) , Se (940.9 kj/mol), Ne(2081 kj/mol), He (2370 kj/mol),

Explanation:

For noble gases as they have complete octet so they require high amount of energy to remove the electron.

Trend along period:

As we move from left to right across the periodic table the number of valance electrons in an atom increase. The atomic size tend to decrease in same period of periodic table because the electrons are added with in the same shell. When the electron are added, at the same time protons are also added in the nucleus. The positive charge is going to increase and this charge is greater in effect than the charge of electrons. This effect lead to the greater nuclear attraction. The electrons are pull towards the nucleus and valance shell get closer to the nucleus. As a result of this greater nuclear attraction atomic radius decreases and ionization energy increases because it is very difficult to remove the electron from atom and more energy is required.

Trend along group:

As we move down the group atomic radii increased with increase of atomic number. The addition of electron in next level cause the atomic radii to increased. The hold of nucleus on valance shell become weaker because of shielding of electrons thus size of atom increased.

As the size of atom increases the ionization energy from top to bottom also  decreases because it becomes easier to remove the electron because of less nuclear attraction and as more electrons are added the outer electrons becomes more shielded and away from nucleus.

How many moles of oxygen are needed for the complete combustion of 29.2 grams of acetylene?
podryga [215]

Moles of Oxygen= 2.8075 moles

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

29.2 grams of acetylene

Required

moles of Oxygen

Solution

Reaction(Combustion of Acetylene) :

2 C₂H₂ (g) + 5 O₂ (g) ⇒ 4CO₂ (g) + 2H₂O (g)

Mol of Acetylene :

= mass : MW Acetylene

= 29.2 g : 26 g/mol

= 1.123

From equation, mol ratio of Acetylene(C₂H₂) : O₂ = 2 : 5, so mol O₂ :

= 5/2 x mol C₂H₂

= 5/2 x 1.123

= 2.8075 moles

Which statement explains how the bands in the crystal of a metal are like atomic orbitals?
algol [13]
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).
