Answer:
Explanation:
The atomic radius of elements are used to estimate the sizes of elements. The atomic radius is taken as half of the inter-nuclear distance between two covalently bonded atoms of non-metallic elements or half of the distance between two nuclei in the solid state of metals.
To solve this problem we will obtain the atomic radius values of the given elements from a standard atomic radius table;
Si 111 pm
P 98 pm
Cl 79 pm
S 87pm
pm = picometer
We see that chlorine has the least atomic radius
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
The boiling point of a substance is affected by the nature of bonding in the molecule as well as the nature of intermolecular forces between molecules of the substance.
2-methylpropane has only pure covalent and nonpolar C-C and C-H bonds. As a result of this, the molecule is nonpolar and the only intermolecular forces present are weak dispersion forces. Therefore, 2-methylpropane has a very low boiling point.
As for 2-iodo-2-methylpropane, there is a polar C-I bond. This now implies that the intermolecular forces present are both dispersion forces and dipole interaction. As a result of the presence of stronger dipole interaction between 2-iodo-2-methylpropane molecules, the compound has a higher boiling point than 2-methylpropane.
Answer: D) The effect of gravity on an object
Explanation: We're not talking about mass, we're talking about weight. Weight is measured by the force of gravity on a object. For examples, you might be 100 pounds on Earth but 12 pounds on the moon.
For an non spontaneous reaction between silver (Ag) and copper (Cu) and their ions, Cu is the oxidizing agent while Ag+ is the reducing agent,
The following reactions will take place;
Anode Cu = Cu+2 + 2e- E= +0.34 volts
Cathode; Ag+ + e = Ag E = +0.80 volts
The net reaction will be Cu + 2Ag+ = Cu+2 + 2Ag
Thus, the voltage will be
= +0.80 - (+0.34)
Answer:
4 g OF IODINE-131 WILL REMAIN AFTER 32 DAYS.
Explanation:
Half life (t1/2) = 8 days
Original mass (No) = 64 g
Elapsed time (t) = 32 days
Mass remaining (Nt) = ?
Using the half life equation we can obtain the mass remaining (Nt)
Nt = No (1/2) ^t/t1/2
Substituting the values, we have;
Nt = 64 * ( 1/2 ) ^32/8
Nt = 64 * (1/2) ^4
Nt = 64 * 0.0625
Nt = 4 g
So therefore, 4 g of the iodine-131 sample will remain after 32 days with its half life of 8 days.
