Which atom, selenium (Se) or Arsenic (As), has the higher electron affinity and why?

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

5. Selenium, because it does not have a stable, half-filled p subshell and adding an electron does not decrease its stability.

Explanation:

Electron affinity is the amount of energy released when an isolated gaseous atom accepts electron to form the corresponding anion.

Selenium:-

The electronic configuration of the element is:-

$[Ar]3d^{10}4s^24p^4$

Arsenic:-

The electronic configuration of the element is:-

$[Ar]3d^{10}4s^24p^3$

The 4p orbital in case of arsenic is half filled which makes the element having more stability as compared to selenium.

Thus, selenium has higher electron affinity because adding electron does not decrease the stability as in case of arsenic.

A 3.4 g sample of an unknown monoprotic organic acid composed of C,H, and O is burned in air to produce 8.58 grams of carbon dio

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

$C_7H_6O_2$

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, we can divide the problem in three stages: (1) determine the empirical formula with the combustion analysis, (2) compute the molar mass of acid via the moles of the acid in the neutralization and (3) determine the molecular formula.

(1) In this case, since 8.58 g of carbon dioxide are released, we can first compute the moles of carbon in the compound:

$n_C=8.58gCO_2*\frac{1molCO_2}{44.01gCO_2}*\frac{1molC}{1molCO_2}=0.195molC$

And the moles of hydrogen due to the produced 1.50 grams of water:

$n_H=1.50gH_2O*\frac{1molH_2O}{18.02gH_2O}*\frac{2molH}{1molH_2O} =0.166molH$

Next, to compute the mass and moles of oxygen, we need to use the initial 3.4 g of the acid:

$m_O=3.4g-0.195molC*\frac{12.01gC}{1molC}-0.166molH*\frac{1.01gH}{1molH} =0.89gO\\\\n_O=0.89gO*\frac{1molO}{16.0gO}=0.0556molO$

Thus, the subscripts in the empirical formula are:

$C=\frac{0.195}{0.0556}=3.5 \\\\H=\frac{0.166}{0.0556}=3\\\\O=\frac{0.0556}{0.0556}=1\\\\C_7H_6O_2$

As they cannot be fractions.

(2) In this case, since the acid is monoprotic, we can compute the moles by multiplying the concentration and volume of KOH:

$n_{KOH}=0.279L*0.1mol/L\\\\n_{KOH}=0.0279mol$

Which are equal to the moles of the acid:

$n_{acid}=0.0279mol$

And the molar mass:

$MM_{acid}=\frac{3.4g}{0.0279mol} =121.86g/mol$

(3) Finally, since the molar mass of the empirical formula is:

7*12.01 + 6*1.01 + 2*16.00 = 122.13 g/mol

Thus, since the ratio of molar masses is 122.86/122.13 = 1, we infer that the empirical formula equals the molecular one:

$C_7H_6O_2$

Best regards!

HELP PLEASE !!!!

love history [14]

Answers are:
-4 for C in CH4, because carbon has greater electronegativity than hydrogen and he attracts shared electrons.
+4 for C in CO2, because carbon has smaller electronegativity than oxygen.
+1 for H in both CH4 and H2O, because hydrogen has amaller electronegativity than both carbon and oxygen.
