How do the elements in each group differ? How are they similar?

Chemistry
2 answers:
Nana76 [90]3 years ago
6 0

Explanation:

All the elements in one group have the same number of valence electrons. The valence electrons are those on the energy level the most distant from the nucleus. These valence electrons are those involved in bonding with other atoms to form compounds.

Answer:

All the elements in one group have the same number of valence electrons. ... Since elements in a group have the same number of valence electrons, they behave similarly in chemistry. An example would be the alkali metals (excepting hydrogen. Hydrogen is in this group only because it has one valence electron.

The molar heat capacity of an unknown substance is 92.1 J/mol-K. If the unknown has a molar mass of 118 g/mol, what is the speci
dlinn [17]

Answer : The specific heat (J/g-K) of this substance is, 0.780 J/g.K

Explanation :

Molar heat capacity : It is defined as the amount of heat absorbed by one mole of a substance to raise its temperature by one degree Celsius.

1 mole of substance releases heat = 92.1 J/K

As we are given, molar mass of unknown substance is, 118 g/mol that means, the mass of 1 mole of substance is, 118 g.

As, 118 g of substance releases heat = 92.1 J/K

So, 1 g of substance releases heat = \frac{92.1}{118}=0.780J/g.K

Thus, the specific heat (J/g-K) of this substance is, 0.780 J/g.K

Problem Page Suppose 25.1g of barium nitrate is dissolved in 200.mL of a 0.50 M aqueous solution of ammonium sulfate. Calculate
melomori [17]

Answer:

1.26 M

Explanation:

The ion nitrate is NO₃⁻ and the Barium is from group 2 so it forms the ion Ba²⁺, so the barium nitrate has the formula: Ba(NO₃)₂. The molar masses are: Ba: 137 g/mol, N = 14 g/mol, O = 16 g/mol, so the molar mass of barium nitrate is:

137 + 2x(14 + 3x16) = 199 g/mol

The number of moles is the mass divided by the molar mass, so:

n = 25.1/199 = 0.126 mol of Ba(NO₃)₂

In 1 mol of the salt, there are 2 moles of NO₃⁻, so the number of moles of nitrate is 0.252 mol. Nitrates formed with ammonium (that can react when the solid dissolves) and with elements from group 1 and 2 are completely soluble in water. So, the moles of nitrate will remain 0.252 mol.

The molarity is the number of moles divided by the volume (0.2 L):

[NO₃⁻]= 0.252/0.2 = 1.26 M

Assume the recommended single dose of an antihistamine for a child weighing 36–47 lbs is 1.50 teaspoons (tsp) . If 1.00 tsp cont
Scilla [17]

Answer:

18.75 milligrams of active ingredient is the recommended dose for a child weighing 36–47 lbs .

Explanation:

Recommended dose of an antihistamine for a child weighing 36–47 lbs = 1.50 tsp

1 table spoon of antihistamine has 12.5 mg per 5 mL of dose.

Amount of dose in 1 teaspoon = \frac{12.5 mg}{5 mL}=2.5 mg/mL

Volume of 1 tsp = 5 ml

Volume of 1.50 teaspoon = 5 mL\times 1.50 =7.50 mL

Amount of antihistamine in 7.50 mL :

=2.5 mg/mL\times 7.50 mL=18.75 mg

18.75 milligrams of active ingredient is the recommended dose for a child weighing 36–47 lbs .

On a hot summer day you and some friends decide you want to cool down your pool. Determine the mass of ice you would need to add
sergeinik [125]

Answer: The mass of ice you would need to add to bring the equilibrium temperature of the system to 300 K is 16.14 \times 10^{4} kg.

Explanation:

We know that relation between heat energy and specific heat is as follows.

                 q = m \times S \times \Delta T

As density of water is 1 kg/L and volume is given as 400,000 L. Therefore, mass of water is as follows.

          Mass of water = Volume × Density

                                  = 400,000 L \times 1 kg/L

                                  = 400,000 kg

or,                              = 400,000 \times 10^{3} g    (as 1 kg = 1000 g)

Specific heat of water is 4.2 J/gm K. Therefore, change in temperature is as follows.

         \Delta T = 305 K - 273 K

                    = 32 K

Now, putting the given values into the above formula and calculate the heat energy as follows.

            q = m \times S \times \Delta T

                = 400,000 \times 10^{3} \times 4.2 \times 32 K

                = 5376 \times 10^{7} J

or,            = 5376 \times 10^{4} kJ

According to the enthalpy of melting of ice 333 kJ/Kg of energy absorbed by by 1 kg of ice. Hence, mass required to absorb energy of 5376 \times 10^{4} kJ  is calculated as follows.

            Mass = \frac{5376 \times 10^{4} kJ}{333 kJ/Kg} \times 1 kg

                      = 16.14 \times 10^{4} kg

Thus, we can conclude that the mass of ice you would need to add to bring the equilibrium temperature of the system to 300 K is 16.14 \times 10^{4} kg.
