Which of the following elements has the lowest ionization energy?

Chemistry
1 answer:

Answer:

Rb

Explanation:

Ionization energy is defined required energy to eliminate or remove an electron from an ion or atom.

From the given elements Rb or Rubidium has the lowest ionization energy as it has lowest shielding effect, so it easy to remove electron from it's shell.

The ionization energy generally decreases from top to bottom in groups due to lower shielding effect and outer electrons are loosely packed so easy to remove and increases from left to right across a period because of valence shell stability.

Rubidium has atomic number 37 and lies below than other given elements and also placed in the left side in the periodic table.

Hence, the correct option is Rb

How many kPa are in 2,150 mmHg?
LenKa [72]
To determine the pressure in units of kPa, we need to use a conversion factor to convert the units from mmHg to kPa. A conversion factor is a value that would relate two different units and is multiplied or divide to the original measurement depending on what is units is asked. From literature, 1 atm is equal to 760 mmHg and it is also equal to 101.325 kPa. We use these factors to convert the given value. We do as follows:

2150 mmHg ( 1 atm / 760 mmHg ) ( 101.325 kPa / 1 atm ) = 286.643 kPa

Therefore, the closest value from the choices is the second one which has the value of 287, this would be answer.
