Compare which element would have larger first ionization energy: an alkali metal in Period 2 or an alkali metal in Period 4?
maria [59]

Answer:

An alkali metal present in period 2 have larger first ionization energy.

Explanation:

Ionization energy:

The amount of energy required to remove the electron from the atom is called ionization energy.

Trend along period:

As we move from left to right across the periodic table the number of valance electrons in an atom increase. The atomic size tend to decrease in same period of periodic table because the electrons are added with in the same shell. When the electron are added, at the same time protons are also added in the nucleus. The positive charge is going to increase and this charge is greater in effect than the charge of electrons. This effect lead to the greater nuclear attraction. The electrons are pull towards the nucleus and valance shell get closer to the nucleus. As a result of this greater nuclear attraction atomic radius decreases and ionization energy increases because it is very difficult to remove the electron from atom and more energy is required.

Trend along group:

As we move down the group atomic radii increased with increase of atomic number. The addition of electron in next level cause the atomic radii to increased. The hold of nucleus on valance shell become weaker because of shielding of electrons thus size of atom increased.

As the size of atom increases the ionization energy from top to bottom also  decreases because it becomes easier to remove the electron because of less nuclear attraction and as more electrons are added the outer electrons becomes more shielded and away from nucleus.  Thus alkali metal present in period 2 have larger ionization energy because of more nuclear attraction as compared to the alkali metal present in period 4.

What type of particle has no mass or charge? <br> A) Alpha <br> B) Beta <br> C) Gamma <br> D) Proton
viva [34]

Answer:

Your answer would be C.

Explanation:

Gamma radiation, unlike alpha or beta, does not consist of any particles, instead consisting of a photon of energy being emitted from an unstable nucleus. Having no mass or charge, gamma radiation can travel much farther through air than alpha or beta, losing (on average) half its energy for every 500 feet.

If I initially have a gas at a pressure of 12 atm, a volume of 23 liters, and a temperature of 200 K and then I raise the pressu
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

The answer to your question is V2 = 29.6 l

Explanation:

Data

Pressure 1 = P1 = 12 atm

Volume 1 = V1 = 23 l

Temperature 1 = T1 = 200 °K

Pressure 2 = 14 atm

Volume 2 = V2 = =

Temperature 2 = T2 = 300°K

Process

1.- To solve this problem use the Combine gas law.

             P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

-Solve for V2

             V2 = P1V1T2 / T1P2

2.- Substitution

             V2 = (12)(23)(300) / (200)(14)

3.- Simplification

             V2 = 82800 / 2800

4.- Result

            V2 = 29.6 l
