What energy is required to remove the remaining electron from singly ionized helium?
skelet666 [1.2K]

To remove one electron from singly ionized helium, will require approximately 54.4 eV or 8.72 1020 J of energy.

The amount of energy required by an isolated, gaseous molecule in the electronic state of the ground to absorb in order to discharge an electron and produce a cation has been known as the ionization energy. The amount of energy required for every atom in a mole to drop one electron is most often given as kJ/mol.

Anything that causes electrically neutral atoms and molecules to gain or lose electrons in order to become electrically charged atoms as well as molecules .

Therefore, the "To remove one electron from singly ionized helium, will require approximately 54.4 eV or 8.72 1020 J of energy."

Pb(SO4)2 + 4 LiNO3 → Pb(NO3)4 + 2 Li2SO4
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

4.5 moles of lithium sulfate are produced.

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of lead sulfate = 2.25 mol

Number of moles of lithium nitrate = 9.62 mol

Number of moles of lithium sulfate = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

Pb(SO₄)₂ + 4LiNO₃      →     Pb(NO₃)₄ + 2Li₂SO₄

Now we will compare the moles of lithium sulfate with lead sulfate and lithium nitrate.

                       Pb(SO₄)₂        :         Li₂SO₄

                            1                :             2

                          2.25           :          2/1×2.25 = 4.5 mol

                       LiNO₃            :             Li₂SO₄

                           4                :                2

                           9.62           :             2/4×9.62 = 4.81 mol

Pb(SO₄)₂  produces less number of moles of Li₂SO₄ thus it will act as limiting reactant and limit the yield of  Li₂SO₄.

What do Potassium and Krypton have in common and what are their differences based on their location on the periodic table?
andreev551 [17]

Common based on their location in Periodic Table;

Potassium has an atomic number 19. Its electronic configuration is as follow;

                                       1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s¹

And Krypton has an atomic number of 36. Its electronic configuration is as follow;

                                1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹⁰, 4p⁶

It is concluded that both Potassium and Krypton has their valence electrons in 4rth shell or they have same Principle Quantum Number.

Difference based on their location in Periodic Table;

As observed in electronic configuration Potassium has one valence electron in its valence shell (i.e. 4s¹) while, Krypton has eight valence electrons in its valence shell (i.e. 4s², 4p⁶). Therefore, they are different in the number of valence electrons.

200g of solution of magnesium
diamong [38]

The mass of reacted magnesium chloride is 23.75g, percent by mass of solution magnesium chloride is 90.9%.

<h3>What is the relation between mass & moles?</h3>

Relation between the mass and moles of any substance will be represented as:

n = W/M, where

  • W = given mass
  • M = molar mass

Moles of MgCl₂ = 200g / 95g/mol = 2.1mol

Moles of NaOH = 20g / 0.5mol

Given chemical reaction is:

MgCl₂ + 2NaOH → 2NaCl + Mg(OH)₂

From the stoichiometry of the reaction it is clear that

  • 1 mole of MgCl₂ = reacts with 2 moles of NaOH
  • 0.5 mole of NaOH = reacts with (1/2)(0.5)=0.25 moles of MgCl₂

Mass of reacted MgCl₂ = (0.25mol)(95g/mol) = 23.75g

Percent by mass of MgCl₂ in the given solution mixture will be calculated as:

  • % by mass = (Mass of MgCl₂ / Total mass of mixture) × 100%
  • Percent by mass of MgCl₂ = (200/200+20)×100% = 90.0&

In the above reaction we obtain NaCl as a solid, and MgCl₂ is the limiting reagent in it, from which 2 moles of NaCl is produced means

  • 0.25 moles of MgCl₂ = produces 0.5 moles of NaCl

Mass of NaCl = (0.5mol)(58.5g/mol) = 29.25g

Hence, mass of reacted MgCl₂ is 23.75g, percent by mass of solution magnesium chloride is 90.9% and mass of the obtained solid is 29.25g.
