Answer:

K

Explanation:

Ionization energy refers to the energy required to remove an electron from an atom. It usually increases across the period due to the increase in the size of the nuclear charge and decreases down the group due to increase in the number of shells.

If we look at the element, K, it has only one electron in its outermost shell. This implies that after this one electron is removed, the second ionization energy involves the removal of an electron from a filled shell.

This usually requires a lot of energy. Hence, the element having the highest difference in energy between first and second ionization energy is K.

Propane gas reacts with oxygen according to this balanced equation: C subscript 3 H subscript 8 space (g )space plus space 5 spa
Misha Larkins [42]

Explanation:

The balanced chemical equation of the reaction is:

C_3H_8(g)+ 5O_2 (g)->3CO_2(g)+4H_2O(g)

From the balanced chemical equation,

1 mole of propane forms ------ 3 mol. of CO_2 gas.

The molar mass of propane is 44.1 g/mol.

One mole of any gas at STP occupies --- 22.4 L.

Hence, 44 g of propane forms (3x22.4 L=) 67.2 L of CO2 gas at STP.

Answer:

Thus, 67.2 L of CO2 is formed at STP.
