Answer:

The information that can be used to determine which mixture has the higher proportion of KCl IS INFORMATION ABOUT THE MASS OF CHLORINE IN EACH MIXTURE, THIS INFORMATION CAN BE OBTAINED BY USING THE LAW OF DEFINITE PROPORTION.

Explanation:

The law of definite proportion states that the chemical composition by mass of a chemical compound is always constant. For instance, a chemical compound that is made up of two elements will always contain the same proportions of the constituent elements regardless of the quantity of chemical that was used.

Using the law of definite proportion, we can determine the proportion of sodium and chlorine in NaCl and the proportion of potassium and chlorine in KCl if the mass of chlorine that was used is known. Based on the results obtained, one can easily determine the mixtures that has higher proportion of KCl.

Answer:

The mass of  Cl  in each mixture

Explanation:

With the amount of Chlorine in the mixture, you can figure out the amount of Potassium and Souium to see which is more.

Polonium- 210 , Po210 , decays to lead- 206 , Pb206 , by alpha emission according to the equation Po84210⟶Pb82206+He24 If the ha
elixir [45]

Answer:

0.269 g

Explanation:

Po_{210} ^{84}  ⟶  Pb_{206} ^{82}+  + He_{4} ^{2}

Data:

Half-life of  Po_{210} ^{84}  (T(1/2)) = 138.4 days

Mass of PoCl4 = 561 mg (0,561 g) and molecular weight of PoCl4 = 350. 79 g/mol  

Time = 338.8 days  

Isotopic masses  

Po_{210} ^{84} = 209.98 g/mol  

Pb_{206} ^{82} = 205.97 g/mol  

Concepts  

Avogadro’s number: This is the number of constituent particles that are contained in a mol of any substance. These constituted particles can be atoms, molecules or ions). Its value is 6.023*10^23.  

The radioactive decay law is  

N=Noe^(-λt)

Where:  

No = number of atoms in t=0

N = number of atoms in t=t (now) in this case t=338.8 days  

λ= radioactive decay constant  

The radioactive constant is related to the half-life by the next equation  

λ= \frac{ln 2}{t(1/2)}

so  

λ= \frac{ln2}{138.4 days}  =0,005008 days^(-1)

No (Atoms of  Po_{210} ^{84}  in t=0)

To get No we need to calculate the number of atoms of  Po_{210} ^{84}   in the initial sample. We have a sample of 0,561 g of PoCl4. If we get the number of moles of PoCl4 in the sample, this will be the number of moles of  Po_{210} ^{84}  in the initial sample.  

This is:

\frac{0,561 g of PoCl4}{350. 79 g of PoCl4 /mol} = 0,001599 mol of  PoCl4

This is the number of mol of  Po_{210} ^{84} in the initial sample.

To get the number of atoms in the initial sample we use the Avogadro’s number = 6.023*10^23  

0,001599 mol of  Po_{210} ^{84} * 6.023*10^23 atoms/ mol of  Po_{210} ^{84} = 9.632 *10^20 atoms of  Po_{210} ^{84}

Atoms after 338.8 days

We use the radioactive decay law to get this value  

N=Noe^(-λt)

N=9.632*10^20 e^(-0,005008 days^(-1) * 338.8 days) =1.765*10^20

This is the number of atoms of  Po_{210} ^{84} in the sample after 338.8 days has passed  

The number of atoms  Po_{210} ^{84} transformed is equal to the number of atoms of Pb_{206} ^{82}  produced.  

The number of atoms of Po_{210} ^{84} transformed is No - N  

9.632 *10^20 – 1.765 *10^20 = 7.866*10^20

So, 7.866*10^20 is the number of atoms of Pb_{206} ^{82} produced  

We can get the mass with the Avogadro’s number

(7.866*10^20 atoms of Pb_{206} ^{82} ) / ( 6.023*10^23 atoms of Pb_{206} ^{82} / mol of Pb_{206} ^{82} =  0.001306 moles of Pb_{206} ^{82}

This number of moles have a mass of:

(0,001306 moles of Pb_{206} ^{82} )* (205.97 g of Pb_{206} ^{82} /mol of Pb_{206} ^{82} ) = 0.269 g

The electron configuration of an element is 1s22s22p63s1.
k0ka [10]

The element is Sodium with an atomic number of 11 and electrovalent bonding takes place when it comes near an atom having seven valence electrons.

<h3>What is Electrovalent bonding?</h3>

This is also referred to as ionic bonding and involves the transfer of atoms of an element to another.

In order for both of them to achieve a stable octet configuration, sodium donates one atom to the element seven valence electrons.
