Answer:

Most pure metals, like aluminium, silver and copper, come from the Earth's crust.
They are found in ores – solid materials called minerals, usually occurring in rock, from which the pure metal has to be extracted.
The properties of pure metals can be improved by mixing them with other metals to make alloys.

Answer:

Se detailed explanation.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since both magnesium and calcium ions are in group IIA, we can review the following similar properties:

- Since both calcium and magnesium are in group IIA they have two valence electrons, it means that the both of them have two electrons at their outer shells.

- They are highly soluble in water when forming ionic bonds with nonmetals such as those belonging to halogens and oxygen's family.

- Calcium has 18 electrons and magnesium 10 which are two less than the total protons (20 and 12 respectively) since the both of them have lost two electrons due their ionized form.

- Their electron configurations are:

$Ca^{20}=1s^2,2s^2,2p^6,3s^3,3p^6,4s^2\\\\Mg^{12}=1s^2,2s^2,2p^6,3s^2$

It means that the both of them are at the $s$ region since it is the last subshell at which their electrons are.

Best regards.

How many Grams of NO is produced if 12g of O2 is combined with excess ammonia?

stich3 [128]

Answer:

Explanation:

moles O2 = mass / Mr = 12 / 2(16.0) = 0.375

ratio O2 : NO = 5:4

moles NO produced = 0.375 * 4/5 = 0.3

mass NO = Mr * mol = (14.0+16.0) * 0.3 = 9g

The free energy change for the following reaction at 25 °C, when [Cr3+] = 1.32×10-3 M and [Fe3+] = 1.14 M, is 131 kJ: Cr3+(1.32×

larisa [96]

Answer:

E°cell = - 1.3575 V

This reaction is spontaneous in the reverse direction

Explanation:

The given cell reaction:

Cr³⁺(1.32 × 10⁻³ M) + Fe²⁺(aq) → Cr²⁺(aq) + Fe³⁺(1.14 M)

The given Gibbs free energy: ΔG = 131 kJ = 131 × 10³ J (∵ 1 kJ = 10³ J)

As we know,

ΔG = - n F E°cell

Here, n - the number of moles of electrons transferred = 1

F - Faraday constant = 96500

E°cell - cell potential = ?

$\therefore E^{\circ }_{cell} = -\frac{\Delta G}{n \: F} = -\frac{131\times 10^{3}\, J}{1\, mol\times96500 \, C.mol^{-1}}$

$\Rightarrow E^{\circ }_{cell} = -1.3575\, V$

For a given chemical reaction if-

1. ΔG = negative and E°cell = positive

⇒ The reaction is spontaneous and proceeds spontaneously in the forward direction.

2. ΔG = positive and E°cell = negative

⇒ The reaction is non-spontaneous and proceeds spontaneously in the reverse direction.

Since, for this chemical reaction: 

Cr³⁺(1.32 × 10⁻³ M) + Fe²⁺(aq) → Cr²⁺(aq) + Fe³⁺(1.14 M)

ΔG = + 131 × 10³ J ⇒ positive

and, E°cell = - 1.3575 V ⇒ negative

Therefore, this reaction is spontaneous in the reverse direction.
