Which of the following atoms has the weakest attraction for electrons in a bond with a calcium (Ca) atom?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Paladinen [302]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

B- Iodine

Explanation:

Using the periodic trends, electronegativity (electron affinity) goes down as you go down a period. This is due to the atom gaining new shells when going down each period, resulting in a weakened attraction force between the nucleus and the electrons in the cloud. In other words. as more shells are added, the weaker the atom's affinity for electrons are and the less electronegative it is. As a result, Iodine would have the weakest attraction for electrons in a bond with Calcium as it is the furthest down in the periodic table.

If 65.39 g of zinc are mixed with some unknown mass of hydrochloride acid, 136.29 g of zncl2 are formed along with 2.00 g of hyd
zepelin [54]

How much hydrogen chloride acid was used?

72.916 g of hydrochloric acid was used.

Given:

Mass of Zn = 65.39 g

Mass of ZnCl_{2} =136.29 g

Mass of H_{2} = 2 g

Equation:

The chemical equation for the reaction of zinc with hydrochloric acid:

Zn + 2HCl → Zn Cl_{2} + H_{2}

Hydrogen gas is created when zinc combines with hydrochloric acid, which causes the process to bubble ferociously. Another sign that a chemical reaction is taking place is the generation of a gas.

Calculation:

A number of equivalents equate:

Number of equivalents = \frac{given mass}{Molecular Mass} x 1000 x equivalent factor

\frac{x}{36.458} x 1000 x 1 = \frac{136.29}{136.286} x 1000 x 2

x = 36.458 x 2

x = 72.916

When a ketone and its enol are in equilibrium, under most conditions the concentration of the enol is __________ the concentrati
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

D). Much lower than  

Explanation:

When a ketone and its enol are in equilibrium, under most conditions the concentration of the enol is <u>Much lower than</u> the concentration of the ketone

because :

Carbon- oxygen bond is more stable(stronger) than Carbon-Carbon Bond

Keto - enol tautomerism is :

H -C-C=O \rightleftharpoons C=C-O-H

Ketone has C=O and enol has C=C

C=O bond energy is 745 kJ/mol

C=C bond energy is 614 kJ/mol

How many protons and neutrons are in the nucleus of isotope with mass of 68.926 amu?
Sidana [21]
There are 30 protons and 39 neutrons in the nucleus.

This must me the isotope of an element with an atomic mass close to 69 u.
The only candidates are Zn and Ga.
Zn has a zinc-69 isotope with mass 68.926 u.
Ga has a gallium -69 isotope with mass 68.925 u.
The isotope is probably _{30} ^{69}Zn.
It has 30 protons and 39 neutrons.
