-Dominant- [34]3 years ago

5 0

Answer:

The energy absorbed in the first move is greater than the energy released in the second move

Explanation:

Electrons require (absorb) energy to move to a higher energy level when there is a large external heat source, the presence of an electric field or by colliding with other electrons

And the amount of energy absorbed by the electron is exactly equal to the change in the energy state between the initial energy level of the electron and the destination energy level

Therefore, given that the energy level of the electron at level 2 is higher than the energy level of the electron when at level 1, we have;

The difference in the energy level between level 4 and level 1 is greater than the difference in the energy level between level 4 and level 2 and more energy is absorbed and therefore, released when the electron moves from level 1 to level 4 than when the electron drops from level 4 to level 2.

The most likely result is that 'the energy absorbed in the first move is greater than the energy released in the second move'.

Based on the octet rule, nitrogen most likely forms a __ion.

Greeley [361]

Answer:

b) N3-

Explanation:

The octet rule stipulates that a chemical specie is stable if it has eight electrons in its outermost shell.

Nitrogen belongs to group 15. This means that it has five electrons in its outermost shell. The formation N3- means that it accepted three electrons.

This brings the total number of outermost electrons to eight in accordance with the octet rule.

What volume of methane gas at 237 K and 101.33 kPa do you have when the volume is decreased to 0.50 L, with a temperature of 300

Alexxandr [17]

Answer: A volume of 0.592 L of methane gas is required at 237 K and 101.33 kPa when the volume is decreased to 0.50 L, with a temperature of 300 K and a pressure of 151.99 kPa.

Explanation:

Given: $T_{1}$ = 237 K, $P_{1}$ = 101.33 kPa, $V_{1}$ = ?

$T_{2}$ = 300 K, $P_{2}$ = 151.99 kPa, $V_{2}$ = 0.50 L

Formula used is as follows.

$\frac{P_{1}V_{1}}{T_{1}} = \frac{P_{2}V_{2}}{T_{2}}$

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

$\frac{P_{1}V_{1}}{T_{1}} = \frac{P_{2}V_{2}}{T_{2}}\\\frac{101.33 kPa \times V_{1}}{237 K} = \frac{151.99 kPa \times 0.50 L}{300 K}\\V_{1} = 0.592 L$

Thus, we can conclude that a volume of 0.592 L of methane gas is required at 237 K and 101.33 kPa when the volume is decreased to 0.50 L, with a temperature of 300 K and a pressure of 151.99 kPa.

What do the elements in each column of the periodic table have in common?

Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

Valency - Number of outermost electrons

Explanation:

Periodic table are generally divided into rows and columns.

Each columns in the periodic table is referred to as groups. Each groups represent the valency of the element. That is, the total number of outermost electrons. Due to the same number of valency, elements in the same group show similar chemical properties.

This means that group 1 elements have a valency of 1 , group 2 elements have a valency of 2.

WILL GIVE BRANLIEST TO FIRST ANSWER!!! I know the correct answer is either a or d. Can anyone explain which one it is and why? C

oee [108]

Answer: The IUPAC name of $CH_3C\equiv CCH_2CH_2Cl$ is 5-chloro-2-pentyne

Explanation:

1. First select the longest possible carbon chain. For the number of carbon atom, we add prefix as 'meth' for 1, 'eth' for 2, 'prop' for 3, 'but' for 4, 'pent' for 5, 'hex' for 6, 'sept' for 7, 'oct' for 8, 'nona' for 9 and 'deca' for 10.

2. The longest possible carbon chain should contain all the bonds and functional groups.

3. The numbering is done in such a way that the carbon containing the functional group or substituent gets the lowest number. Triple bond is given priority over substituent halogen.

4. The naming of alkane is done by adding the suffix -ane, alkene by adding the suffix -ene, alkyne.

Thus the IUPAC name of $CH_3C\equiv CCH_2CH_2Cl$ is 5-chloro-2-pentyne

Two students were in Chemistry Class completing an assigned lab experiment. The two students were to mix 5.34g CaCl2 with CuSO4

skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

CaCl₂ + CuSO₄ → CaSO₄ + CuCl₂.

Explanation:

It is a replacement reaction, that cations and anions are replaced with each other.

So, it gives CaSO₄ and CuCl₂.

To balance the reaction, we apply the law of conversation of mass, that the no. of atoms in the reactants side is equal to that in the products side.

So, the balanced reaction is:
