Suppose a new group 5A element is discovered. Photoelectron spectroscopy (PES) reveals that its last two peaks occur at 1370 kJ/
iren2701 [21]

Answer: The average valence electron energy (AVEE) of this element =

1014.2 KJ/ mol  or  1.0142mJ/mol.

Explanation:

The average valence electron energy =  (number of electrons in s subshell  x  Ionization energy of that subshell) + (number of electrons in p subshell  x  Ionization energy of that subshell) / total number of electrons in both subshells of the valence shells.

The 5A elements are non-metals like Nitrogen and Phosphorus with the metallic character increasing as you go down the group, So a new 5A element will have characteristics of its group with 5 valence electron in its outermost shell represented as ns2 np3

Therefore  the average valence electron energy (AVEE) of this element will be calculated as

The average valence electron energy = (2 x 1370  kJ/mol + 3 x 777 kJ/mol.) / 5

2740+2331/ 5 =5071/5

=1014.2 KJ/ mol  or  1.0142mJ/mol.

The reaction is not balanced

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Reaction

2Fe(s)+3O₂(g)⇒2Fe₂O₃(s)

Required

The number of atoms

Solution

In a balanced chemical equation, the number of atoms in the compound that reacts (the reactants and products) will have the same number

Reactants : Fe(s)+O₂(g)

Fe = 2 atoms

O = 3 x 2 = 6 atoms

Products : Fe₂O₃(s)

Fe = 2 x 2 = 4 atoms

O = 2 x 3 = 6 atoms

The reaction is not balanced because the number of Fe atoms is not the same

The balanced reaction should be:

4Fe(s)+3O₂(g)⇒2Fe₂O₃(s)

A sealed container holding 0.0255 L of an ideal gas at 0.991 atm and 69 ∘ C is placed into a refrigerator and cooled to 43 ∘ C w
ANEK [815]

Answer:

The final pressure of the gas is 0.915atm

Explanation:

We have to apply the Charles Gay Lussac Law, where the pressure changes directly proportional to absolute T°

- No change in volume

- The same moles in both situations

P1 / T1  =  P2 / T2

0.991 atm / 342K = P2 / 316k

(0.991 atm / 342K) . 316K = P2

0.915 atm = P2

What does the rate law tell you about a reaction?
natta225 [31]

Answer:

A. How the concentration of the reactants affects the rate of a reaction

Explanation:

Let's consider a generic reaction.

A + B ⇒ Products

The generic rate law is:

rate  = k × [A]ᵃ × [B]ᵇ

where,

  • rate: rate of the reaction
  • [A] and [B]: molar concentrations of the reactants
  • k: rate constant
  • a and b: reaction orders

As we can see, the rate law shows how the concentration of the reactants affects the rate of a reaction.
