I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is the first option. The element that would most likely have a positive electron affinity would be sodium, Na. Electron affinity is defined as the change in energy of a neutral atom when an electron is added to the atom.

Electron affinity has opposite sign than electron gain enthalpy

higher the negative value of electron affinity, more the tendency of an element to accept electron and more the positive value of electron affinity, lower the tendency to accept electrons

As we move from left to right the tendency to gain electrons increases

as we move from top to bottom the tendency to gain electrons decreases

so here Argon will have most negative electron affinity

Rb will have least negative electron affinity

Describe the nucleus of the atom. Include a description of its size relative to the rest of the atom.
faust18 [17]

Answer:

The nucleus is the most densely compacted part of the atom, it is in the center circled by the electron cloud or shells. It is filled with positively charged protons, and neutrons which have no charge. It is smaller than the electron cloud in size, but in quantity it has more subatomic particles since protons and electrons are equal and the nucleus has nuetrons

A 25.888 g sample of aqueous waste leaving a fertilizer manufacturer contains ammonia. The sample is diluted with 73.464 g of wa
brilliants [131]

Answer:

Weight % of NH₃ in the aqueous waste  = 2.001 %

Explanation:

The chemical equation for the reaction

\\\\NH_3} + HCl -----> NH_4Cl

Moles of HCl = Molarity × Volume

= 0.1039 × 31.89 mL × \frac{1 \  L}{1000 \ mL}

= 0.0033 mole

Total mass of original sample = 25.888 g + 73.464 g

= 99.352 g

Total HCl taken for assay = \frac{10.762 \ g}{99.352 \ g}

= 0.1083 g

Moles of NH₃ = \frac{0.0033 \  mol}{0.1083}

= 0.03047 moles

Mass of NH₃ = number of  moles × molar mass

Mass of NH₃ = 0.03047 moles × 17 g

Mass of NH₃  = 0.51799

Weight % of NH₃  = \frac{0.51799 \ g}{25.888 \ g} * 100%%

Weight % of NH₃ in the aqueous waste  = 2.001 %

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

The time recorded in the lab notebook is shorter than the true reaction time because the reaction starts the moment the two solutions were mixed

Explanation:

A chemical reaction is "a process that involves rearrangement of the molecular or ionic structure of a substance, as distinct from a change in physical form or a nuclear reaction" (Oxford dictionary).

A chemical reaction begins immediately the reactants are mixed together in a reaction vessel because the particles of the reactants immediately begin to collide with each other. There is no lost time before reactions begins!

This implies that, the time recorded in the lab notebook is shorter than the true reaction time because the reaction starts the moment the two solutions were mixed.
