Unfortunately you did not specify the electronic configuration in the question, however since one of the answers must be a halogen, i took the liberty to attach an image with the configuration (both the simple numeric and spdf form) for all the halogen and all you have to do is match the electronic configuration you have in your question to the one in the table attached and you can then deduce the answer.
Hope this helps.
Answer:
e) The activation energy of the reverse reaction is greater than that of the forward reaction.
Explanation:
- Activation energy is the minimum amount of energy that is required by the reactants to start a reaction.
- An exothermic reaction is a reaction that releases heat energy to the surrounding while an endothermic reactions is a reaction that absorbs heat from the surrounding.
- <em><u>In reversible reactions, when the forward reaction is exothermic it means the reverse reaction will be endothermic, therefore the reverse reaction will have a higher activation energy than the forward reaction.</u></em> The activation energy of the reverse reaction will be the sum of the enthalpy and the activation energy of the forward reaction.
Hey there!
We Know that:
2 Ag⁺(aq) + Zn(s) <-> Zn²⁺(aq)+2 Ag(s)
The equilibrium expression for the reaction is:
Kc = [ Zn⁺² ] / [Ag⁺ ]²
Hope that helps!
Answer:
2,2,4-Trimethyl-pentane
Explanation:
Structural characteristics of the compound is as follows:
- Has five methyl group
- Has one quaternary carbon
- No. double bond
- Gives four monochloro substitution products
Compound must have straight chain of 5 carbons.
Three methyl substituents are attached to 2 and 4 carbons.
Therefore, IUPAC name of the compound will be 2,2,4-Trimethyl-pentane.
Answer:
Other substances that give a positive test with AgNO3 are other chlorides present, iodides and bromide. However iodides and bromides have different colours hence they will not give a false positive test for KCl. Other chlorides present may lead to a false positive test for KCl.
Explanation:
In the qualitative determination of halogen ions, silver nitrate solution is used. Various halide ions give various colours of precipitate with silver nitrate. Chlorides yield a white precipitate, bromides yield a cream precipitate while iodides yield a yellow precipitate. All these ions or some of them may be present in the system.
However, if other chlorides are present, they will also yield a white precipitate just as KCl leading to a false positive test for KCl. Since other halogen ions yield precipitates of different colours, they don't lead to a false test for KCl. We can exclude other halides from the tendency to lead us to a false positive test for KCl but not other chlorides.
