Answer:

k

Explanation:

electron affinity (EA) depends on various factors like effective nuclear charge (enc) , size of the atom, ellipticity of sub-shell (ep) , nature of configuration.

more is the enc more will be the EA

more is the size less will be the EA

more valance shell ellipticity (closer to the nuclei) more will the EA ( all given element posses P orbital in the valance shell)

A student is asked to standardize a solution of barium hydroxide. He weighs out 0.978 g potassium hydrogen phthalate (KHC8H4O4,
Sav [38]

Answer:

(A) 0.129 M

(B) 0.237 M

Explanation:

(A) The reaction between potassium hydrogen phthalate and barium hydroxide is:

  • 2HA + Ba(OH)₂ → BaA₂ + 2H₂O

Where A⁻ is the respective anion of the monoprotic acid (KC₈H₄O₄⁻).

We <u>convert mass of phthalate to moles</u>, using its molar mass:

  • 0.978 g ÷ 156 g/mol = 9.27x10⁻³ mol = 9.27 mmol

Now we <u>convert mmol of HA to mmol of Ba(OH)₂</u>:

  • 9.27 mmol HA * \frac{1mmolBa(OH)_{2}}{2mmolHA} = 6.64 mmol Ba(OH)₂

Finally we calculate the molarity of the Ba(OH)₂ solution:

  • 6.64 mmol / 35.8 mL = 0.129 M

(B) The reaction between Ba(OH)₂ and HCl is:

  • 2HCl + Ba(OH)₂ → BaCl₂ + 2H₂O

So<u> the moles of HCl that reacted </u>are:

  • 17.1 mL * 0.129 M * \frac{2mmolHCl}{1mmolBa(OH)_2} = 4.41 mmol HCl

And the <u>molarity of the HCl solution is</u>:

  • 4.41 mmol / 18.6 mL = 0.237 M

What element does this model represent?
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

$\tex$ Option 2: Aluminum (Al)

Explanation:

When we are given Bohr models, we will be given a circle with rings surrounding it. The circle in the center of the model represents the nucleus, which contains the neutrons and the protons. The rings will have spherical structures that are attached to them in an orderly fashion - these model the electrons of an atom.

  • Protons are positively-charged subatomic particles that also identify the atom's chemical identity and atomic number. Using the number of protons, we are able to identify the element.
  • The neutrons are the neutrally-charged subatomic particles that give an atom its weight. When you look at a traditional periodic table, you'll see that the square that houses an element has its symbol, atomic number, and atomic mass. The atomic mass is equivalent to the sum of the protons and neutrons.
  • Electrons are negatively-charged subatomic particles that give an atom its overall charge. In order for an atom to be stable and neutral, the electrons <u>must</u> equal the protons. Otherwise, we have an unstable atom called an ion with either a positive or a negative charge. This is dependent on whether an atom has gained or lost electrons.

When we reference the model, we will see that there are 13 "p" and 14 "n" within the green circle. The "n" refers to <em>neutrons </em>and the "p" refers to <em>protons</em>. We can also count the red spheres and make quick observations about these: there are 2 red spheres on the innermost ring - for simplicity reasons, we will title this ring as r = 1. There are 8 red spheres on the middle ring - this ring will be titled r = 2. Finally, we can see that there are 2 more electrons in the outermost ring - this ring will be titled r = 3.

Now, because we have 13 protons, we know that the protons are equivalent to the atomic number.

  1. If we check the periodic table, we will see that Silicon (Si) has an atomic number of 14. This doesn't match the number of protons, so we can rule out that a silicon atom is not the element shown.
  2. When we use the same process and check aluminum, we discover that Aluminum (Al) has an atomic number of 13. Since the number of protons and the atomic number are equal, we can conclude that this is the element.
  3. If we check Helium (He), we see that it has an atomic number of 2, so this is definitely not our element in question.

Now that we have concluded that Aluminum is our element, we can check this to be sure. If we use the formula m = n + p (where m is the atomic mass, n is the neutrons, and p is the protons), we can check to be sure we have selected the right element.

The given mass of aluminum on the periodic table is 26.982 atomic mass units. We round to the nearest integer when it comes to this, so we round 26.982 up to 27 even.

Now that we have determined the atomic mass and we are given the number of both protons and neutrons, we can act as if we weren't given the amount of neutrons and only the mass and amount of protons. We can then use the equation to solve for the amount of neutrons and check that the selection we made is correct.

<u>Steps</u>

  1. Substitute 27 for <em>m</em> and 13 for <em>p</em>.
  2. Subtract 13 from both sides to isolate the <em>n</em> and place the constants on the same side of the equation.
  3. Combine like terms by taking the appropriate operations (in this case, this is subtracting 13 from 27).
  4. Finally, because we are solving for <em>n</em>, you can reverse the equation (place the constant on the right and place the variable on the left; i.e., 72 = x  →  x = 72).

27 = n + 13\\\\27 - 13 = n\\\\14 = n\\\\n = 14

The work we just performed will allow us to confirm that because we solved for <u>14 neutrons</u>, Aluminum (Al) is indeed the element represented by the model.

Hope this helps! :)

Distinguish between the terms "insoluble" and "unsaturated." Give an example to illustrate each term.
Serjik [45]
Insoluble means that a substance does not dissociate in another, like mixing water and oil.

In an unsaturated solution, the solute does dissociate into solution but there is more "room" in the solution to hold more. Say if you have an amount of water that can dissolve 20g of salt but you only have 15g dissolved in it, that solution is unsaturated.
