Option (i) would have the highest 2nd Ionization Energy.

Option (i) is Sodium.

Can be Written as 2, 8 , 1

For its 1st Ionization energy... It'd be extremely easy to remove that Electron cos its on the outermost shell.

Now After Removing that Electron...

Sodium's Electronic Configuration Reduces to that of Neon Which is 2, 8.

Neon has a very stable Octet.

It would take an ENORMOUS amount of energy to break its Octet stability... that is... Remove 1 electron from its Octet.

So

Option (i) [Sodium] has the highest 2nd Ionization Energy

Caffeine (C8H10N4O2) is a stimulant found in coffees and teas. When dissolved in water, it can accept a proton from a water mole
Olenka [21]

Answer:

See figure 1

Explanation:

If we want to find the acid and the Brønsted-Lowry base, we must remember the definition for each of these molecules:

-) Acid: hydrogen donor

-) Base: hydrogen acceptor

In the <u>caffeine structure,</u> we have several atoms of nitrogen. These nitrogen atoms have the ability to <u>accept</u> hydronium ions (H^+). Therefore the caffeine molecule will be the base since it can accept

If caffeine is the base, the water must be the acid. So, the water in this reaction donated a hydronium ion.

<u>Thus, caffeine is the base and water the acid. (See figure 1)</u>

In a science lab, a student heats up a chemical from 10 °C to 25 °C which requires thermal energy of 30000 J. If mass of the obj
olganol [36]

Answer:

The specific heat capacity of the object is 50 J/g°C ( option 4 is correct)

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Initial temperature = 10.0 °C

Final temperature = 25.0 °C

Energy required = 30000 J

Mass of the object = 40.0 grams

Step 2: Calculate the specific heat capacity of the object

Q = m* c * ΔT

⇒With Q = the heat required = 30000 J

⇒with m = the mass of the object = 40.0 grams

⇒with c = the specific heat capacity of the object = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒with ΔT = The change in temperature = T2 - T2 = 25.0 °C - 10.0°C = 15.0 °C

30000 J = 40.0 g * c * 15.0 °C

c = 30000 J / (40.0 g * 15.0 °C)

c = 50 J/g°C

The specific heat capacity of the object is 50 J/g°C ( option 4 is correct)

Which of the following are correct for zero-order reactions?
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

The answer is "Choice A and Choice B"

Explanation:

The Zero-Order reactions are usually found if a substrate, like a surface or even a catalyst, is penetrated also by reactants. Its success rate doesn't depend mostly on the amounts of the various reaction in this reaction.

Let the Rate = k

As \frac{dx}{dt} \ rate\ \  K_0 doesn't depend on reaction rate, a higher reaction rate does not intensify the reaction.

By the rate k_0 =\frac{dx}{dt}, the created based and the reaction rate is about the same.
