Answer:

neon

Explanation:

The octet rule states that atoms of elements are stable when they possess 8 electrons on their outermost shell.

Hence, atoms of elements participate in chemical reactions in order to attain this octet structure (eight electrons in the outermost shell).

Neon is a noble gas and already has eight electrons in its outermost shell. Hence, neon is least likely to obey the octet rule.

Determine the pressure in atm exerted by 1 mole of methane placed into a bulb with a volume of 244.6 mL at 25°C. Carry out two c
Nuetrik [128]

The pressure in atm exerted by 1 mole of methane placed into a bulb with a volume of 244.6 mL at 25°C is 101.94atm.

<h3>How to calculate pressure?</h3>

The pressure of an ideal gas can be calculated using the following formula:

PV = nRT

Where;

  • P = pressure
  • V = volume
  • n = number of moles
  • R = gas law constant
  • T = temperature

According to information in this question;

  • T = 25°C = 25 + 273 = 298K
  • V = 244.6mL = 0.24L
  • R = 0.0821 Latm/Kmol

P × 0.24 = 1 × 0.0821 × 298

0.24P = 24.47

P = 24.47/0.24

P = 101.94atm

Therefore, the pressure in atm exerted by 1 mole of methane placed into a bulb with a volume of 244.6 mL at 25°C is 101.94atm.

2.22 (a) Briefly cite the main differences between ionic, covalent, and metallic bonding. (b) State the Pauli exclusion principl
Alja [10]

Answer: Ioniç bond is also called electrovalent bond. It involves the transfer of electrons from positively charged ions to negatively charged ions. covalent bond is a type of chemical bond that involves electrons sharing by atoms of a molecule in order to achieve a stable electronic configuration.. Metallic bond is a type of chemical bond that forms between metal atoms and it occurs when positive metal ions are attracted to a negatively charged electron that are not associated with a single atom. The differences can be seen in the definitions above.

Pauli exclusion principle states that electrons which are identical cannot have the same quantum state.

Zn-64 = 48.63%
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

A = 65.46 u

Explanation:

Given that,

The composition of zinc is as follows :

Zn-64 = 48.63%

Zn-66 = 27.90%

Zn-67 = 4.10%

Zn-68 = 18.75%

Zn-70 = .62%

We need to find the  average atomic mass of the given element. It can be solved as follows :

A=\dfrac{48.63\times 64+27.90\times 66+4.1\times 67+18.75\times 68+0.62\times 70}{100}\\A=65.46\ u

So, the average atomic mass of zinc is 65.46 u.

The temperature program for a separation starts at a temperature of 50 °C and ramps the temperature up to 270 °C at a rate of 10
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

The correct answer to the question is Option E (Strongly retained analytes will give broad peaks).

Explanation:

The other options are true because:

A. Initial temp = 50 °C

   Final temp =  270 °C

Differences in temp = 270 - 50 = 220°C

Rate =  10 °C/minute.

So, at 10 °C/minute,

total of 220°C /10 °C = number of minutes required to reach the final temp.

220/10 = 22 minutes

B. A column has a minimum and maximum use temperature. Solutes that are already retained would remain stationary while temperatures are low. This would only change if there is an increase in temperature. Heat transfers more energy to the liquid which would make the solute interact with the column phase.

C. Weakly retained solutes may contain larger molecules, will separate by absorbing into the solvent early in separation making the mobile phase separates out into its components on the stationary phase.

D. Retained solute's vapor pressure is higher at higher temperatures making it possible for particle to escape more from the solute when the temperature is high than when it is low.
