Answer:

a. Sn or Si ⇒ Sn

b. Br or Ga ⇒ Ga

c. Sn or Bi ⇒ similar in size

d. Se or Sn ⇒ Sn

Explanation:

The larger atom has a larger atomic radius. We have to consider how varies the atomic radius for chemical elements in the Periodic Table. In a group (column), the atomic radius increases from top to bottom while in a period (file), it increases from right to left.

a. Sn or Si ⇒ Sn

They are in the same group. Sn is on the top, so it has a larger atomic radius.

b. Br or Ga ⇒ Ga

They are in the same period. Ga is located at the left so it has a larger atomic radius.

c. Sn or Bi ⇒ similar

They are not in the same group neither the same period. Bi is located more at the bottom, so it would be larger than Sn, but Bi is also at the right side, so it would be smaller than Bi. Thus, they have comparable sizes.

d. Se or Sn⇒ Sn

They are not in the same group neither the same period. Se is located at the top and right side compared to Sn, so Sn is the larger atom.

What is a maximum negative displacement of a wave

AnnZ [28]

The maximum negative displacement of a wave is the same as its amplitude.

As a wave travels through space, its particles are sometimes above the

x-axis (+) and sometimes below it (-).

The maximum displacement from the axis is the amplitude of the wave.

The amplitude of the wave is the same in both the positive and negative directions.

) In the Deacon process for the manufacture of chlorine, HCl and O2 react to form Cl2 and H2O. Sufficient air (21 mole% O2, 79%

LiRa [457]

Answer:

Here's what I get.

Explanation:

1. Write the chemical equation

$\rm 4HCl + O$_{2} \longrightarrow \,$ 2Cl$_{2}$ + 2H$_{2}$O$

Assume that we start with 4 L of HCl

2. Calculate the theoretical volume of oxygen

$\text{V}_{\text{O}_{2}}= \text{4 L HCl} \times \dfrac{\text{1 L O}_{2}}{\text{4 L HCl}} = \text{1 L O}_{2}}$

3. Add 35% excess

$\text{V}_{\text{O}_{2}}= \text{1 L O}_{2}} \times 1.35 = \text{1.35 L O}_{2}}$

4. Calculate the theoretical volume of nitrogen

$\text{V}_{\text{N}_{2}} = \text{1.35 L O}_{2}} \times \dfrac{\text{79 L N}_{2}}{\text{21 L O}_{2}}} = \text{5.08 L N}_{2}}$

4. Calculate volumes of reactant used up

Only 85 % of the HCl is converted.

We can summarize the volumes in an ICE table

4HCl + O₂ + N₂ → 2Cl₂ + 2H₂O

I/L: 4 1.35 5.08 0 0

C/L: -0.85(4) -0.85(1) 0 +0.85(2) +0.85(2)

E/L: 0.60 0.50 5.08 1.70 1.70

5. Calculate the mole fractions of each gas in the product stream

Total volume = (0.60 + 0.50 + 5.08 + 1.70 + 1.70) L = 9.58 L

$\chi = \dfrac{\text{V}_{\text{component}}}{\text{V}_\text{total}} = \dfrac{\text{ V}_{\text{component}}}{\text{9.58}} = \text{0.1044V}_{\text{component}}\\\\\chi_{\text{HCl}} = 0.1044\times 0.60 = 0.063\\\\\chi_{\text{O}_{2}} = 0.1044\times 0.50 = 0.052\\\\\chi_{\text{N}_{2}} = 0.1044\times 5.08 = 0.530\\\\\chi_{\text{Cl}_{2}} = 0.1044\times 1.70 = 0.177\\\\\chi_{\text{H$_{2}${O}}} = 0.1044\times 1.70 = 0.177\\\\$
