Explain why calcium (Ca) has a greater atomic radius than magnesium (Mg).

Chemistry
1 answer:
g100num [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Magnesium nucleus will attract the electrons more toward it and therefore, shrinking the size of the atom. Magnesium atom is smaller than Calcium atom because Calcium has more electron ( 20e− ) which will occupy more energy levels ( n=4 for Calcium versus n=3 for Magnesium)

What is the mole fraction of acetic acid in a solution containing 2 moles of vinegar and 3 moles of water? A. 2 B. 3 C. 0.4 D. 0
9966 [12]

Answer:

C. 0.4.

Explanation:

<em>∵ mole fraction of acetic acid (X acetic acid) = (no. of moles acetic acid)/(total no. of moles) = (no. of moles acetic acid)/(no. of moles of acetic acid + no. of moles of water).</em>

<em></em>

- no. of moles of acetic acid = 2, no. of moles of water = 3.

- Total no. of moles = no. of moles of acetic acid + no. of moles of water = 2 + 3 = 5.

<em>∴ mole fraction of acetic acid (X acetic acid) = (no. of moles acetic acid)/(total no. of moles) =</em> (2)/(5)<em> = 0.4.</em>

What is the solution's freezing point: 15 g of CH4N2O (Molar mass = 60.055 g/mol) in 200. g of H2O? (Kf = 1.86 (°C·kg)/mol)
AURORKA [14]

Ok to answer this question we firsst need to fin the number of mol of Urea (CH4N2O). to do this we simply :

1 mol of urea =15/60.055 = 0.25mol

therefore 200g of water contain 0.25mol

the next step is to determine the malality of our solution in 200g of water, to do this we say:

200 g = 1Kg/1000g = 0.2kg

therefor 0.25mol/0.2Kg = 1.25mol/kg

and from the equation:

we know that i = 1

we are given Kf

b is the molality that we just calculated

therefore;

the solutions freezing point is -2.325°C
