Answer:

Cl

Explanation:

n for Mg=m:Mm

=65.8:24

=2.74mol

n for Cl=m:Mm

=45.7:70

=0.65mol

According to the <em>number of moles</em> we can say that the limiting reagent is Cl as it has few moles.

PolarNik [594]

Answer:The ideal gas law is represented mathematically as: PV=nRT. P- pressure, V- volume, n-number of moles of gas, R- ideal gas constant, T- temperature.

Explanation:The ideal gas law is used as a prediction of the behavior of many gases, when subjected to different conditions.

he ideal gas law has so many limitations.

An increase in the pressure or volume, decreases the number of moles and temperature of the gas.

Empirical laws that led to generation of the ideal gas laws, considered two variables and keeping the others constant. This empirical laws include, Boyle's law, Charles's law, Gay Lusaac's law and Avogadro's law.

Given any two elements within a group, is the element with the larger atomic number likely to have a larger or smaller atomic ra
zhenek [66]

Answer:

Atomic radius of sodium = 227 pm

Atomic radius of potassium = 280 pm

Explanation:

Atomic radii 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.

Consider the example of sodium and potassium.

Sodium is present above the potassium with in same group i.e, group one.

The atomic number of sodium is 11 and potassium 19.

So potassium will have larger atomic radius as compared to sodium.

Atomic radius of sodium = 227 pm

Atomic radius of potassium = 280 pm

Consider a balloon of nitrogen gas and a crystal of sugar sitting on a table at room conditions. Select the appropriate statemen
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

about the same

Explanation:

Thermal energy is constant at a certain temperature in general. The energy is denoted by K_BT

Where,

K_B is the Boltzmann constant

T is the absolute temperature

Given that the balloon filled with nitrogen gas and the crystal of sugar are at room conditions means that they have same conditions and thus they will possess same energy irrespective of the states of the matter.

Thus,

The thermal energy of the sugar molecules is <u>about the same</u> as that of nitrogen molecules.
