Cl is highly electronegative and will actually pull away 1 electron from sodium, forming an ionic bond.
Answer:
After the transfer the pressure inside the 20 L vessel is 0.6 atm.
Explanation:
Considering O2 as an ideal gas, it is at an initial state (1) with V1 = 3L and P1 = 4 atm. And a final state (2) with V2 = 20L. The temperature remain constant at all the process, thus here applies the Boyle-Mariotte law. This law establishes that at a constant temperature an ideal gas the relationship between pressure and volume remain constant at all time:

Therefore, for this problem the step by step explanation is:

Clearing P2 and replacing

Answer:
D. chlorine, oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen.
Explanation:
- Thomas Graham found that, at a constant temperature and pressure the rates of effusion of various gases are inversely proportional to the square root of their masses.
<em>ν ∝ 1/√M</em>
where ν is the rate of effusion and M is the atomic or molecular mass of the gas particles.
- The molecular mass for the listed gases are:
O₂: 32.0 g/mol,
Cl₂: 70.906 g/mol,
N₂: 28.0 g/mol,
H₂: 2.0 g/mol.
- Hence, the smallest molecular mass of the gas, the fastest rate of effusion.
So, the order from the slowest to the fastest rate of effusion is:
<em>Chlorine, oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen.</em>
Answer:
1. The electronic configuration of X is: 1s2 2s2 sp6 3s2
2. The configuration of the anion of Y (i.e Y^2-) is 1s2 2s2 2p6
3. The formula of the compound form by X and Y is given as: XY
Explanation:
For X to loss two electrons, it means X is a group 2 element. X can be any element in group 2. The electronic configuration of X is:
1s2 2s2 sp6 3s2
To get the electronic configuration of the anion of element Y, let us find the configuration of element Y. This is done as follows:
Y receives two electrons from X to complete its octet. Therefore Y is a group 6 element. The electronic configuration of Y is given below
1s2 2s2 2p4
The configuration of the anion of Y (i.e Y^2-) is 1s2 2s2 2p6
The formula of the compound form by X and Y is given below :
X^2+ + Y^2- —> XY
Their valency will cancel out thus forming XY
