What is a valence electron ?

Chemistry
2 answers:
timofeeve [1]3 years ago
6 0

a valence electron is an outer shell electron that is associated with an atom, and that can participate in the formation of a chemical bond if the outer shell is not closed; in a single covalent bond, both atoms in the bond contribute one valence electron in order to form a shared pair.

A particular reaction, A- products, has a rate that slows down as the reaction proceeds. The half-life of the reaction is found
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Explanation:

Half life of zero order and second order depends on the initial concentration. But as the given reaction slows down as the reaction proceeds, therefore, it must be second order reaction. This is because rate of reaction does not depend upon the initial concentration of the reactant.

a. As it is a second order reaction, therefore, doubling reactant concentration, will increase the rate of reaction 4 times. Therefore, the statement  a is wrong.

b. Expression for second order reaction is as follows:

\frac{1}{[A]} =\frac{1}{[A]_0} +kt

the above equation can be written in the form of Y = mx + C

so, the plot between 1/[A] and t is linear. So the statement b is true.

c.

Expression for half life is as follows:

t_{1/2}=\frac{1}{k[A]_0}

As half-life is inversely proportional to initial concentration, therefore, increase in concentration will decrease the half life. Therefore statement c is wrong.

d.

Plot between A and t is exponential, therefore there is no constant slope. Therefore, the statement d is wrong

How many grams of H2O can be made from the combustion of 3.75 liters of C7H14 and an excess of O2 at STP?
Kitty [74]

Answer:

21.10g of H2O

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is given below:

2C7H14 + 21O2 —> 14CO2 + 14H2O

From the balanced equation above, 2L of C7H14 produced 14L of H2O.

Therefore, 3.75L of C7H14 will produce = (3.75 x 14)/2 = 26.25L of H2O.

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of H2O that will occupy 26.25L at stp. This is illustrated below:

1 mole of a gas occupy 22.4L at stp

Therefore, Xmol of H2O will occupy

26.25L i.e

Xmol of H2O = 26.25/22.4

Xmol of H2O = 1.172 mole

Therefore, 1.172 mole of H2O is produced from the reaction.

Next, we shall convert 1.172 mole of H2O to grams. This is illustrated below:

Number of mole H2O = 1.172 mole

Molar mass of H2O = (2x1) + 16 = 18g/mol

Mass of H2O =..?

Mass = mole x molar mass

Mass of H2O = 1.172 x 18

Mass of H2O = 21.10g

Therefore, 21.10g of H2O is produced from the reaction.
