Why is oxygen heavier than air?

Chemistry
2 answers:
navik [9.2K]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Oxygen is denser

Explanation:

Oxygen is denser than both air and nitrogen, at all temperatures and pressures, but only slightly. Since they don't separate from each other, we generally don't worry which is lighter or heavier. The difference in the density of nitrogen and oxygen gas comes from their molecular weight, which is small (4 g/mol)

Answer:

Oxygen is denser than air.

Explanation:

This is because oxygen gas comes from its molecular weight. Also air is mainly made up of nitrogen and nitrogen is lighter than oxygen.

Typically, water runs through the baseboard copper tubing and, therefore, fresh hot water is constantly running through the pipi
Ugo [173]

Answer:

-3.617 °C

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Mass of water (m): 210.0 g

Energy released in the form of heat (Q): -3178 J (the minus sign corresponds to energy being released)

Specific heat of water (c): 4.184 J/g.°C

Temperature change (ΔT): ?

Step 2: Calculate the temperature change

We will use the following expression.

Q = c × m × ΔT

-3178 J = 4.184 J/g.°C × 210.0 g × ΔT

ΔT = -3.617 °C

As you move down a column what happens to the ionic radius?
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

The ionic radius increases.  

Each time you move down to the next Period, you are adding an extra shell of electrons.

Each shell is further from the nucleus than the one before it, so the .

The image below illustrates the increase in ionic radius as you go down a Group.

Calculate the molar solubility of silver(i) bromate with ksp = 5. 5×10-5. also, convert the molar solubility to the solubility.
Sindrei [870]

The molar solubility is 7.4×10^{-3} M and the solubility is  7.4×10^{-3} g/L .

Calculation ,

The dissociation of silver bromide is given as ,

AgBr → Ag ^{+} + Br^{-}

S  

 -          S        S        

Ksp =  [Ag ^{+} ] [ Br^{-} ]  =  [S] [ S ] = S^{2}

S = √ Ksp = √ 5. 5×10^{-5} = 7.4×10^{-3}

The solubility =7.4×10^{-3} g/L

The molar solubility is the solubility of one mole of the substance.

Since ,  one mole of AgBr is dissociates and form one mole of each  Ag ^{+} and Br^{-} ion . So, solubility is equal to molar solubility but unit is different.

Molar solubility = 7.4×10^{-3} mol/L = 7.4×10^{-3} M

Looking at the periodic table how can you tell how many valence electrons an atom will have?
jeka57 [31]

The Group number of a non-transition metal can be used to find the number of valence electrons in an atom of that element. The ones place of the group number is the number of valence electrons in an atom of these elements
