The given question is incomplete. The complete question is :

Which of the following Group 17 elements is the least reactive

a) Flourine

b) Chlorine

c) Astatine

d) Iodine

Answer: c) Astatine

Explanation:

Halogen is the name given to Group 17 family with general electronic configuration of ns^2np^5 which have 7 valence electrons and thus easily gain one electron to attain stable configuration.

As we move down the group from flourine to chlorine to bromine to iodine to astatine , the valence shell moves farther from nucleus and thus tendency to accept the electron decreases and thus reactivity also decreases.

Thus Astatine is the least reactive of all.

A mixture of gases contains 4.46 moles of neon (Ne), 0.74 mole of argon (Ar), and 2.15 moles of xenon (Xe). Calculate the partia
viva [34]

Explanation:

The partial pressure of an individual gas is equal to the total pressure of the mixture multiplied by the mole fraction of the gas.

Total pressure = 2atm

Mole Fraction = number of moles / total number of moles

Neon

Mole Fraction = 4.46 / 7.35 = 0.607

Partial Pressure = 0.607 * 2 = 1.214 atm

Argon

Mole Fraction = 0.74 / 7.35 = 0.101

Partial Pressure = 0.101 * 2 = 0.202 atm

Xenon

Mole Fraction = 2.15 / 7.35 = 0.293

Partial Pressure = 0.293 * 2 = 0.586 atm

An organic solvent has a density of 1.31g/ml. What volume is occupied by 50.0g of the liquid?
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

             38.16 mL

Solution:

Data Given;

                   Density  =  1.31 g/mL

                   Mass  =  50 g  

                   Volume  =  ?

Formula Used;

                   Density  =  Mass ÷ Volume

Solving for Volume,

                   Volume  =  Mass ÷ Density  

Putting values,

                   Volume  =  50 g ÷ 1.31 g.mL⁻¹

                   Volume =  38.16 mL

13. What is the symbol for Enthalpy change?
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

Explanation:

13 ) symbol of enthalpy change = Δ H .

14 ) enthalpy change is nothing but heat absorbed or evolved .

During fusion enthalpy change

Δ H .= m Lf , m is mass and Ls is latent heat of fusion

During evaporation, enthalpy change

Δ H .= m Lv , m is mass and Lv is latent heat of evaporation

during temperature rise , enthalpy  change

Δ H = m c Δ T

In case of gas , enthalpy change can be calculated by the following relation

Δ H = Δ E + W , Δ E is change in internal energy , W is work done by gas.

15 ) When enthalpy change is negative , that means heat is released to the environment .So reaction is called exothermic .

when heat is absorbed enthalpy change is positive . Reaction is endothermic.
