Answer:
E²⁺
Explanation:
The group two contain alkaline earth metals.
There are six elements in group 2A.
Beryllium, Magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium and radium.
All members have two valance electrons.
They lose two valance electrons to complete the octet.
When they lose the two valance electrons they form cation X²⁺.
They react with halogens and form salt such as
MgCl₂, CaCl₂ etc.
Mg²⁺ Cl²⁻₂
The oxidation state of halogens are -1, while the elements of group two A shows +2 that's why two atoms of halogen are combine with one atom of alkaline earth metals and make the compound overall neutral.
All the alkaline earth metals have similar properties.
Electrons in an atom can be classified as core electrons and valence electrons. Valence electrons are those electrons which are present in valence shell and participates in bond formation. While, Core electrons are all remaining electrons which are not present in valence shell, hence not take part in bonding.
Atomic number of Selenium (Se) is 34 hence it has 34 electrons with following electronic configuration;
1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹⁰, 4p⁴
From electronic configuration it is found that the valence shell is 4, and the number of electrons present in valence shell are 6. So,
Core Electrons = Total Electrons - Valence Electrons
Core Electrons = 34 - 6
Core Electrons = 28
Result:
There are 28 core electrons in Selenium.
Answer:
Hydrogen: -141 kJ/g
Methane: -55kJ/g
The energy released per gram of hydrogen in its combustion is higher than the energy released per gram of methane in its combustion.
Explanation:
According to the law of conservation of the energy, the sum of the heat released by the combustion and the heat absorbed by the bomb calorimeter is zero.
Qc + Qb = 0
Qc = -Qb [1]
We can calculate the heat absorbed by the bomb calorimeter using the following expression.
Q = C . ΔT
where,
C is the heat capacity
ΔT is the change in the temperature
<h3>Hydrogen</h3>
Qc = -Qb = -C . ΔT = -(11.3 kJ/°C) . (14.3°C) = -162 kJ
The heat released per gram of hydrogen is:
<h3>Methane</h3>
Qc = -Qb = -C . ΔT = -(11.3 kJ/°C) . (7.3°C) = -82 kJ
The heat released per gram of methane is:
Answer:
Molar heat of solution of KBr is 20.0kJ/mol
Explanation:
Molar heat of solution is defined as the energy released (negative) or absorbed (Positive) per mole of solute being dissolved in solvent.
The dissolution of KBr is:
KBr → K⁺ + Br⁻
In the calorimeter, the temperature decreases 0.370K, that means the solution absorbes energy in this process. The energy is:
q = 1.36kJK⁻¹ × 0.370K
q = 0.5032kJ
Moles of KBr in 3.00g are:
3.00g × (1mol / 119g) = 0.0252moles
Thus, molar heat of solution of KBr is:
0.5032kJ / 0.0252moles = <em>20.0kJ/mol</em>
