Which element has a greater electronegativity? fluorine (9) or radium (88)

Chemistry
2 answers:
emmainna [20.7K]3 years ago

Answer:

Fluorine

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Chemistry</u>

  • Reading a Periodic Table
  • Periodic Trends
  • Electronegativity - the tendency for an element to attract an electron to itself
  • Z-effective and Coulomb's Law, Forces of Attraction

Explanation:

The Periodic Trend for Electronegativity is up and to the right of the Periodic Table.

Fluorine is Element 9 and has 9 protons. Radium is Element 88 and has 88 protons. Therefore, Radium has a bigger Zeff than Flourine.

However, since Radium is in Period 7 while Fluorine is in Period 2, Radium has more core e⁻ than Fluorine does. This will create a much larger shielding effect, causing Radium's outermost e⁻ to have less FOA between them. Fluorine, since it has less core e⁻, the FOA between the nucleus and outershell e⁻ will be much stronger.

Therefore, Fluorine would attract an electron more than Radium, thus bringing us to the conclusion that Fluorine has a higher electronegativity.

Answer:

Fluorine

Explanation:

Electronegativity increases as you go from left to right across the periodic table and decreases as you go from top to bottom of the periodic table.

Fluorine is in period 3, group 17

Radium is in period 7, group 2

Radium is in period 7 and we know that electronegativity decreases as you move from top to bottom.

Explanation: As you move from top to bottom, you are in higher energy level, which means that your distance from the nucleus is further away.

A 25.0 ml sample of 0.723 m hclo4 is titrated with a 0.27303 m koh solution. the h3o+ concentration after the addition of 66.2 m
tia_tia [17]
This doesn't need an ICE chart. Both will fully dissociate in water.

Assume HClO4 and KOH reacts with one another. All you need to do is determine how much HClO4 will remain after the reaction. Calculate pH.

Step 1:

write out balanced equation for the reaction

HClO4+KOH ⇔ KClO4 + H2O

the ratio of HClO4 to KOH is going to be 1:1. Each mole of KOH we add will fully react with 1 mole of HClO4

Step 2:

Determining the number of moles present in HClO4 and KOH

Use the molar concentration and the volume for each:
25 mL of 0.723 M HClO4

Covert volume from mL into L:
25 mL * 1L/1000mL = 0.025 L

Remember:

M = moles/L so we have 0.025 L of 0.723 moles/L HClO4

Multiply the volume in L by the molar concentration to get:

0.025L x 0.723mol/L = 0.0181 moles HClO4.

Add 66.2 mL KOH with conc.=0.273M
66.2mL*1L/1000mL = .0662 L
.0662L x 0.273mol/L = 0.0181 moles KOH

Step 3:

Determine how much HClO4 remains after reacting with the KOH.

Since both reactants fully dissociate and are used in a 1:1 ratio, we just subtract the number of moles of KOH from the number of moles of HClO4:

moles HClO4 = 0.0181; moles KOH = 0.0181, so 0.0181-0.0181 = 0

This means all of the HClO4 is used up in the reaction.

If all of the acid is fully reacted with the base, the pH will be neutral = 7.

Determine the H3O+ concentration:

pH = -log[H3O+]; [H3O+] = 10-pH = 10-7

The correct answer is 1.0x10-7.

Is Solar energy a matter?
NikAS [45]

Answer:

Solar energy is a renewable free source of energy

Explanation:

It is sustainable and totally inexhaustible, unlike fossil fuels which are finite. It is also a non-polluting source of energy and it does not emit any greenhouse gases when producing electricity.

Ammonia can be produced via the chemicalreaction
otez555 [7]

Answer:

3)The reaction is not at equilibrium and willproceed to the right.

Explanation:

The reaction quotient of an equilibrium reaction measures relative amounts of the products and the reactants present during the course of the reaction at  particular point in the time.

It is the ratio of the concentration of the products and the reactants each raised to their stoichiometric coefficients. The concentration of the liquid and the gaseous species does not change and thus is not written in the expression.

Q < Kc , reaction will proceed in forward direction.

Q > Kc , reaction will proceed in backward direction.

Q = Kc , reaction at equilibrium.

Given that:

Q = 3.56\times 10^{-4}

K = 6.02\times 10^{-2}

Since, Q < K , reaction is not at equilibrium and will proceed to right, in forward direction.
