Using principles of atomic structure, explain why the atomic radius of Te is less than the ionic radius of Te2− . Photoelectron

spectroscopy data for the 1s sublevel of Te and the 1s sublevel of O are represented below. In terms of Coulomb's law and atomic structure, explain why the peak for O is positioned so far to the right of the peak for Te .

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Let us recall that a negative ion is formed by addition of electrons to an atom. When electrons are added to the atom, greater interelectronic repulsion increases the size of the Te^2− hence it is greater in size than Te atom. Therefore, the ionic radius of Te^2− is greater than the atomic radius of Te.

In the second question, oxygen is positioned so far to the right because it has a far smaller nuclear charge compared to Te. Hence in the PES spectrum, the 1s sublevel of oxygen lies far to the right of that of Te.

Consider the following thermochemical reaction for kerosene:
ch4aika [34]

We have to solve this question using the stoichiometry of the reaction:

The equation of the reaction is;

2 C12H26(l) + 37 O2(g) -----> 24 CO2(g) + 26 H2O(l) + 15,026 kJ

According to the question;

Number of moles of CO2 released = 21.3 g/44 g/mol = 0.48 moles

From the  stoichiometry of the reaction:

Since;

24 moles of CO2 released 15,026 KJ

0.48 moles of CO2 will release 0.48 * 15,026/24

= 301 KJ of heat.

There is water on the pan of the scale as you measure the mass of an object. If you were to ignore the water, what would be the
mihalych1998 [28]
Remember that density refers to the "mass per unit volume" of an object.

So, if an object had a mass of 100 grams and a volume of 100 milliliters, the density would be 100 grams / 100 ml.

In the question, water on the surface of the scale would add weight, so the mass of the object that you're weighing would appear to be heavier than it really is. If that happens, you'll incorrectly assume that the density is GREATER than it really is

As an example, suppose that there was 5 ml of water on the surface of the scale. Water has a density of 1 gram per milliliter (1 g/ml) so the water would add 5 grams to the object's weight. If we use the example above, the mass of the object would seem to be 105 grams, rather than 100 grams. So, you would calculate:

density = mass / volume
density = 105 grams / 100 ml
density = 1.05 g/ml

The effect on density would be that it would erroneously appear to be greater

Hope this helps!

Good luck

Carbon diselenide (CSe2) is a liquid at room temperature. The normal boiling point is 125°C, and the melting point is –45.5°C. C
Tema [17]

Answer:

Explanation:  The strengths of the inter molecular forces varies as follows -

        CO_{2}< CS_{2} < CSe_{2}

The normal boiling point of CSe2 is 125°C and that of CS2 is 116°C, which explains the trend that as we move down the group, the boiling point of e compound increases as the size increases.

This usually happens because larger and heavier atoms have a tendency to exhibit greater inter molecular strengths due to the increase in size . As the size increases, the valence shell electrons move far away from the nucleus, thus has a greater tendency to attract the temporary dipoles.

And larger the inter molecular forces, more tightly the electrons will be held to each other and thus more thermal energy would be required to break the bonds between them.

When the following equation is balanced with the lowest whole number coefficients possible, what is the coefficient in front of
Anastaziya [24]
Given: C3H8(g) + O2(g) ----> CO2 (g) + H2O (g)

Step : Put a 3 in front of CO2 (g) to balance C

=> C3H8(g) + O2(g) ----> 3CO2 + H2O to balance H

Step 2: Put a 4 in front of H2O

=> C3H8 (g) + O2(g) -----> 3CO2 (g) + 4H2O (g)

Step 3: Given that there are 3*2 + 4 = 10 O to the right side, put a 5 in front of O2 to balance O:

=> C3H8(g) + 5O2(g) -----> 3CO2(g) + 4H2O(g)

You can verify that the equation is balanced.

So, the answer is that the coefficient in front of O2 is 5.
