Not exactly sure, but i think it might be b.

i say this because it says which best describes the FUNCTION of the large ears.

the other options just tell me about the structure of the ear.

A gas made up of atoms escapes through a pinhole times as fast as gas. Write the chemical formula of the gas.

Artemon [7]

A gas made up of atoms escapes through a pinhole 0.225times as fast as gas. Write the chemical formula of the gas.

Answer:

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we must apply Graham's law of diffusion. This law states that "the rate of diffusion or effusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its molecular mass at constant temperature and pressure".

Mathematically;

$\frac{r_{1} }{r_{2} } = \frac{\sqrt{m_{2} } }{\sqrt{m_{1} } }$

r₁ is the rate of diffusion of gas 1

r₂ is the rate of diffusion of gas 2

m₁ is the molar mass of gas 1

m₂ is the molar mass of gas 2

let gas 2 be the given H₂;

molar mass of H₂ = 2 x 1 = 2gmol⁻¹

rate of diffusion is 0.225;

i .e r1/r2 = 0.225

0.225 = √2 / √ m₁

0.225 = 1.414 / √ m₁

√ m₁ = 6.3

m₁ = 6.3² = 39.5g/mol

The gas is likely Argon since argon has similar molecular mass

For each of the following sets of elements, circle the element expected to be most electronegative and draw a box which is expec

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer: The element expected to be most electronegative is Ca.

The element expected to be least electronegative is K.

Explanation:

Electronegativity is defined as the property of an element to attract a shared pair of electron towards itself.

Down the group:

The size of an atom increases as we move down the group because a new shell is added and electron gets added up.

As, the size of an element increases, the valence electrons gets away from the nucleus. So, the attraction between the nucleus and the shared pair of electrons decreases

Hence, electronegativity decreases moving from top to bottom down a group

Across a period:

The size of an atom decreases as we move across the period because the electrons get added to the same shell and the nuclear charge keeps on increasing. Thus the electrons get more tightly held by the nucleus.

As, the size of an element decreases, the valence electrons come near to the nucleus. So, the attraction between the nucleus and the shared pair of electrons increases.

Hence, electronegativity increases moving across left to right in a period.

Thus as K, Sc and Ca are arranged across a period, the electronegativity order is K< Sc < Ca.
