The elements in each group have the same number of electrons in the outer orbital. Or also called valence electrons. Khan academy has a great video online explaining why this happens. (It only happens for main group elements). Here is a link (sorry you can’t click it in Brainly) https://www.khanacademy.org/science/chemistry/periodic-table/copy-of-periodic-table-of-elements/v/periodic-table-valence-electrons. Feel free to message me for a better explanation, I would explain now but I’m not sure how much you know about this. If you know how to write an electron configuration you can see how all the electron configurations for the same group (not the transitional metals only the main groups) have the same number of valence electrons. I hope that helped, sorry I was vague about the explanation :)
The thermochemical equation is the chemical equation including the net change of enthalpy (heat).
The chemical equation for the decomposition of methanol to form methane and oxygen is:
2CH3OH --> 2CH4 + O2
The thermochemical equation is:
2CH3OH ---> 2CH4 + O2 - 252.8 kJ
Note that the heat is placed as negative at the right side because it is absorbed during the decomposition, so the environment will have 252.8 kJ less per each mole of O2 produced.
You can equivalently write:
2CH3OH + 252.8 kJ --> 2CH4 + O2
Answer:
1) R₃CO
, H, H₃C, a carbon free radical
2) high temperature, ultraviolet irradiation
Explanation:
1) Homolysis leads to the formation of free radicals (species having a free electron). Thus, answer is :
R₃CO
H
H₃C
a carbon free radical
2) Homolysis require high temperature, ultraviolet irradiation.
MgCl2(s) + H2O(l) → MgO(s) + 2 HCl(g)
Using the standard enthalpies of formation given in the source below:
(−601.24 kJ) + (2 x −92.30 kJ) − (−641.8 kJ) − (−285.8 kJ) = +141.76 kJ
So:
MgCl2(s) + H2O(l) → MgO(s) + 2 HCl(g), ΔH = +141.76 kJ
Explanation:
5g C7H8 / 92g/mole = 0.054moles
total moles = 0.232moles
mole fraction C6H12 = 0.178moles / 0.232moles = 0.767
mole fraction C7H8 = 0.233
