Answer:

d Rubidium

Explanation:

The atomic radius of an atom is the distance from the center of the nucleus to its outermost electron.

The atomic radius of elements varies in the periodic table, it increases as you go down in a group and decreases along the period from left to right.

All the elements listed: Hydrogen, Sodium, Lithium and Rubidium belong to the same group in the periodic table (group 1), Since atomic radius increases from top to bottom in a group, Rubidium has the largest atomic radius.

How would adding the catalyst nitrogen monoxide (NO) affect this reaction?

RSB [31]

Answer: A) NO increases the rate at which $SO_3$ molecules are formed.

Explanation:

A catalyst is a substance which increases the rate of a reaction by taking the reaction through a different path which involves lower activation energy and thus more reactant molecules can cross the energy barrier by undergoing collisions and convert to products.

$2SO_2(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2SO_3(g)$

Thus NO will increase the rate of reaction by lowering the activation energy and thus the colllisions among $SO_2$ and $O_2$ molecules will incraese which in turn will lead to formatioon of more $SO_3$ molecules.

Strigol is an important plant hormone that is released by crops such as rice and sugarcane. Unfortunately for these plants, stri

The hydrogen deficiency index( HDI) of strigol is = 10

<h3>How to calculate HDI:</h3>

The hydrogen deficiency index is used to measure the number of degree of unsaturation of an organic compound.

Strigol is an example of an organic compound because it contains carbons and hydrogen.

To calculate the HDI using the molecular formula given (C19H20O6) the formula for HDI is used which is:

$hdi = \frac{1}{2} (2c + 2 + n - h - x)$

where C = number of carbon atoms = 19

n= number of nitrogen atoms = 0

h= number of hydrogen atoms = 20

X = number of halogen atoms = 0

Note that oxygen was not considered because it forms two bonds and has no impact.

There for HDI =

$\frac{1}{2} (2 \times 19 + 2 + 0 - 20 - 0)$

HDI=

$\frac{1}{2} (40 - 20)$

HDI =

$\frac{1}{2} \times 20$

HDI = 10

Therefore, the hydrogen deficiency index of strigol is = 10

hurry please! avogadro's law relates the volume of a gas to the number of moles of gas when temperature and pressure are constan

DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

Option B. 4 moles of the gaseous product

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

Initial volume (V1) = V

Initial number of mole (n1) = 2 moles

Final volume (V2) = 2V

Final number of mole (n2) =..?

Applying the Avogadro's law equation, we can obtain the number of mole of the gaseous product as follow:

V1/n1 = V2/n2

V/2 = 2V/n2

Cross multiply

V x n2 = 2 x 2V

Divide both side by V

n2 = (2 x 2V)/V

n2 = 2 x 2

n2 = 4 moles

Therefore, 4 moles of the gaseous product were produced.
