d. electrophiles

Answer:

weak bases

Explanation:

Leaving groups accept electron pairs. A strong base donates an electron pair while a weak base accepts an electron pair.

Since good leaving groups must readily accept electrons, weak bases are very good leaving groups.

The order of usefulness of halogens as leaving groups is: I > Br > Cl > F

All elements have a AHf, of ___
stellarik [79]

All elements have a AHf, of <u>0</u>

kJ/mole at standard temperature and pressure.

<h3>What is an element?</h3>

An element can be defined as a substance which cannot be split into two or more simpler forms by an ordinary chemical process

Below are the list of the first twenty elements:

  • Hydrogen
  • Helium
  • Lithium
  • Berylium
  • Boron
  • Carbon
  • Nitrogen
  • Oxygen
  • Fluorine
  • Neon
  • Sodium
  • Magnesium
  • Aluminum
  • Silicon
  • Phosphorus
  • Sulphur
  • Chlorine
  • Argon
  • Potassium
  • Calcium

So therefore, all elements have a AHf, of <u>0</u>

kJ/mole at standard temperature and pressure.

The elements in Groups 1A(1) and 7A(17) are all quite reactive. What is a major difference between them?
matrenka [14]

The elements in Groups 1A(1) and 7A(17) are all quite reactive.

<h3>Major difference between Groups 1A(1) and 7A(17) : </h3>

Group 7's halogens, which are non-metal elements, become less reactive as you move down the group. In contrast to the alkali metals in Group 1 of the periodic table, this trend is the opposite. The most reactive element in Group 7 is fluorine.

Alkali metals are soft and reactive metals. They react vigorously with water and become more reactive. And other hand halogens are reactive non metals.

  • Elements of group 1A are known as alkali metals. Elements of this group are lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium.
  • Reactivity increase down group 1 but decrease up group 7 this is because group 7 elements react by gaining an electron. As one move down the group, the amount of electron shielding increases, meaning that the electron is less attracted to the nucleus.

Choose all of the following mole ratios that are correct for the reaction given below. Be sure to choose all that apply.
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

2 moles NH3 = 1 mole of N2

3 moles of H2 = 1 mole of N2

3 moles of H2 = 2 moles of NH3

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

N2 + 3H2 —> 2NH3

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of N2 reacted with 3 moles of H2 to produce 2 moles of NH3.

Thus, we can say that:

1 mole of N2 = 3 moles of H2

1 mole of N2 = 2 moles of NH3

3 moles of H2 = 2 moles of NH3

Thus, considering the options given above, the right answers to the question are:

2 moles NH3 = 1 mole of N2

3 moles of H2 = 1 mole of N2

3 moles of H2 = 2 moles of NH3

Calculate the hydroxide ion consentration of a solution with pH = 3.25. show all calculations leading to your answer.
lidiya [134]
First you calculate the pOH of the solution:

pH+ pOH = 14

3.25 + pOH = 14

pOH = 14 - 3.25

pOH = 10.75

<span>Concentration of [OH]</span>⁻<span> in solution:
</span>
[ OH⁻ ] = 10 ^{-pOH}

[ OH⁻ ]  = 10^ - 10.75

[OH⁻] = 1.778 x 10⁻¹¹ M

hope this helps !
