Answer:
Fluorine is the most reactive halogen followed by chlorine, bromine and iodine
Explanation:
The reactivity of halogens decreases down the group, that is, fluorine is the most reactive halogen followed by chlorine and bromine. The least reactive halogen is iodine.
There are several reasons and viewpoints explaining this concept:
- Fluorine is the smallest atom of all halogens, since: (a) it has the lowest number of electron shells and (b) it has the greatest electronegativity, so that the electrons are attracted with the greatest force towards the nucleus. Therefore, it has the lowest radius. This means when the protons in the nucleus attract the electrons from another atom, the distance between the nucleus of fluorine and the electrons of another atom will be the smallest of all halogens. The lower the distance, the greater the attraction force, so that we obtain the strongest bond with fluorine and the weakest with iodine, as iodine has the greatest radius of all. From this standpoint, fluorine is the most reactive.
- Similarly, fluorine is least shielded atom, as it only has two valence shells. Going down the group, the number of shells increases, so iodine is the most shielded atom. Shielding increases the atomic radius, so that it's easier for fluorine to approach the electrons from the valence shell of another atom compared to more shielded chlorine, bromine and iodine.
Answer:
60 Miles per Hour
Explanation:
You included no scenario so I will develop a hypothetical that you can reference.
Assuming a car traveled a distance of 450 miles from one place to another in 9 hours with the car travelling 180 of those miles between 6 hours and 9 hours, what was the average speed between those 6 and 9 hours.
The car travelled 180 miles in 6hours - 9 hours. First find out how many hours this is:
= 9 - 6
= 3 hours
Speed = Distance / Time
= 180 / 3 hours
= 60 miles per hour
25 x 10.5 = 262.5
So the approx. is 260 g which is answer D.
To get the empirical formula of this compound, we take a basis of 100 grams which means each percentage is equivalent to 1 gram. Hence there is 32.39 grams sodium, 22. 53 grams sulfur and 45.07 grams oxygen. We convert each mass to their moles by dividing by their respective molar mass. Na: 1.408, S:0.704 and O:2.82. divide each with the lowest: Na: 2: S: 1 and O:4. Hence the formula is Na2SO4.
The answer to this is false.
