Determine the number of valence electrons for following (Ne) 3s2 3p4

Valentin [98]

The phrase which best describes nuclear fusion is: A. the process by which small nuclei combine into a larger nucleus.

A nuclear reaction can be defined as a type of chemical reaction in which the nucleus of an atom of a radioactive chemical element is transformed by either being joined (fusion) or split (fission) with the nucleus of another atom of a radioactive chemical element and accompanied by a release of energy.

Generally, there are two (2) main types of nuclear reaction and these include:

<u>Nuclear fission:</u> it involves the collision of a heavy atomic nucleus with a neutron, thereby causing a split and release of energy.

<u>Nuclear fusion:</u> it involves the joining of two smaller nuclei of atoms to form a single massive or heavier (larger) nucleus with the release of energy.

In conclusion, nuclear fusion is best described as the process by which small nuclei combine into a larger nucleus, accompanied by a release of energy.

If we mix 25 grans if sodium oxide with a large amount of potassium chloride, how many grams of sodium chloride should be produc

amid [387]

Answer:

47.2 g

Explanation:

Data given:

mass of Sodium oxide (Na₂O) = 25 grams

mass of potassium chloride (KCl) = excess

amount of sodium chloride (NaCl) = ?

Solution:

First we look for reaction of sodium oxide with potassium chloride.

Na₂O + 2 KCl -----------> 2 NaCl + K₂O

As we know that potassium chloride is in excess amount and sodium oxide is 25 g so it means sodium oxide is a limiting reactant and amount of sodium chloride depends on the amount of sodium oxide.

So, now we will look for mole mole ration of Na₂O to NaCl.

Na₂O + 2 KCl -----------> 2 NaCl + K₂O

1 mol 2 mol

from above equation we come to know that 1 mole of Na₂O gives 2 moles of NaCl.

Now convert moles to mass

As we Know

Molar mass of Na₂O = 2(23) + 16 = 62 g/mol

Molar mass of NaCl = 23 + 35.5 = 58.5 g/mol

So

Na₂O + 2 KCl -----------> 2 NaCl + K₂O

1 mol (62 g/mol) 2 mol (58.5 g/mol)

62 g 117 g

So, it means that 62 g of Na₂O produce 117 g of NaCl then how many grams of NaCl will be produce by 25 g of Na₂O

Apply unity formula

62 g of Na₂O ≅ 117 g of NaCl

25 g of Na₂O ≅ X g of NaCl

Do cross multiplication

X g of NaCl = 117 g x 25 g / 62 g

X g of NaCl = 47.2 g

So,

25 g of Na₂O gives 47.2 grams of NaCl.

How are Kelvin scale and celcius scale similar <br>

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer: The Kelvin scale is related to the Celsius scale. The difference between the freezing and boiling points of water is 100 degrees in each, so that the kelvin has the same magnitude as the degree Celsius.

Explanation:

Celsius is, or relates to, the Celsius temperature scale (previously known as the centigrade scale). The degree Celsius (symbol: °C) can refer to a specific temperature on the Celsius scale as well as serve as a unit increment to indicate a temperature interval(a difference between two temperatures or an uncertainty). “Celsius” is named after the Swedish astronomer Anders Celsius (1701-1744), who developed a similar temperature scale two years before his death.

K = °C + 273.15

°C = K − 273.15

Until 1954, 0 °C on the Celsius scale was defined as the melting point of ice and 100 °C was defined as the boiling point of water under a pressure of one standard atmosphere; this close equivalence is taught in schools today. However, the unit “degree Celsius” and the Celsius scale are currently, by international agreement, defined by two different points: absolute zero, and the triple point of specially prepared water. This definition also precisely relates the Celsius scale to the Kelvin scale, which is the SI base unit of temperature (symbol: K). Absolute zero—the temperature at which nothing could be colder and no heat energy remains in a substance—is defined as being precisely 0 K and −273.15 °C. The triple point of water is defined as being precisely 273.16 K and 0.01 °C.

Toxicants generally follow the laws of ________, moving from areas of high concentration to areas of lower concentration

zloy xaker [14]

Toxicants generally follow the Law of Diffusion , moving from areas of high concentration to areas of lower concentration.

<h3><u>What are Toxicants ?</u></h3>

Any hazardous chemical is a toxicant. Both naturally occurring and artificial toxicants have the potential to be harmful. A toxin, in contrast, is a poison created spontaneously by an organism (e.g. plant, animal, insect). The many toxicant categories may be present in the air, land, water, or food.

A substance is toxic if it has the potential to be harmful or have negative effects on health. Chemicals like polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and dioxin, which are present at some hazardous waste sites, often cause people to worry.

<h3><u>What is the Law of Diffusion ?</u></h3>

Graham's law of diffusion states that the ratio of the diffusion rate of two gases is the same as the ratio of the square root of the molar mass of the gases.
