Why can some metals be extracted from compounds by heating with carbon and why can some not

Chemistry
1 answer:
pentagon [3]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Some metals can be extracted from compounds by heating with carbon atom because they are less reactive than carbon and some metals cannot be extracted because they are more reactive than carbon atom.

Explanation: If the metal is less reactive than carbon atom so the carbon atoms make bond with oxide or other atom present with metal and the metal is free from that oxide or that element. But if the reactivity of metal is higher than carbon is unable to remove the oxide or element.

<span>Group 1 can be characterized as atoms that have 1 electron in their valence shell. This is valuable when dealing with these questions, because the loss or gain of valence electrons is what defines ionic relationships. When group 1 elements form ionic bonds with other atoms, they are extremely likely to lose their valence electron, since the nucleus has a weaker pull on it than, say, a chlorine atom has on its 7 valence electrons. The weaker pull between the nucleus and the valence electron of group 1 elements means that the radius is high, since the electron is more free to move with less pull on it. This also means that the first ionization energy is low, since it takes relatively little energy for that electron to be pulled away to another atom.</span>

Answer the question briefly: How can atom collapse and why are atoms stable?
kykrilka [37]

The nuclei of atoms become unstable when the repelling forces of the protons cannot be balanced by the number of neutrons in the nucleus. It then re-arranges itself randomly to a more stable configuration by emitting any of a series of particles. During radioactive decay, an atom does not collapse.

Since an atom is mostly empty space - that is it’s nucleus is relatively distant from the electron shells so, in the presence of extreme forces such as gravity inthe collapse of a large star, the inward pressures on the atom overcome the natural balance of the atomic structure and the ‘empty space’ disappears as nuclei are mashed together by the intense pressures and a neutron star is formed. Under even more external pressure, even the neutron star can collapse to form a black hole.

Suppose you used 0.5 M NaOH to titrate your vinegar sample instead of 0.1 M. What effect does the concentration of base added ha
laiz [17]

Answer: the reliability will be worse

Explanation:

Suppose we used 0.5 M NaOH to titrate our vinegar sample instead of 0.1 M.

Now by using 0.5M instead of 0.1M we are increasing the concentration of NaOH,

We know that  the moles used = Volume x concnetration.

so for the same no of moles, if the concentration increases, the volume decreases.

Hence it will consume less NaOH.

now Since the volume decreases, the titration volume of less number will increase the % error.

Therefore the reliability will be worse.

10 points. Please help.

Answer:

-191.7°C

Explanation:

P . V = n . R . T

That's the Ideal Gases Law. It can be useful to solve the question.

We replace data:

2.5 atm . 8 L = 3 mol . 0.082 L.atm/mol.K . T°

(2.5 atm . 8 L) / (3 mol . 0.082 L.atm/mol.K) = T°

T° = 81.3 K

We convert T° from K to C°

81.3K - 273 = -191.7°C
