Answer:

Lowest ionization energy: Cs

Most favorable electron affinity: Cl

Most energy required to remove an electron: Cu2+

Explanation:

Ionization energy decreases down the group. That means that as we move down the group, the ionization energy of elements decreases due to greater distance of the outermost electron from the nucleus and greater screening effect of inner electrons on this outermost electron. Hence Cs has the lowest ionization energy.

Electron affinity of halogens decreases down the group. Hence, Cl possess the most favorable electron affinity.

When an electron has been removed from an atom, the removal of the next electron is usually harder. Thus, the second ionization energy is always greater than the first ionization energy and so on. Thus, it is most difficult to remove an electron from Cu^2+ from which two electrons have already been removed.

If body fats has a density of 0.94 g/mL and 3.0 liters of fat are removed, how many pounds of fat were removed from the patient?
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

6.217 pounds

Explanation:

We are given;

  • Density of body fats 0.94 g/mL
  • Volume of fats removed = 3.0 L

We are required to determine the mass of fats removed in pounds.

We need to know that;

Density = Mass ÷ volume

1 L = 1000 mL, thus, volume is 3000 mL

Rearranging the formula;

Mass = Density × Volume

         = 0.94 g/mL × 3000 mL

         = 2,820 g

but, 1 pound = 453.592 g

Therefore;

Mass = 2,820 g ÷ 453.592 g per pound

         = 6.217 pounds

Thus, the amount of fats removed is 6.217 pounds

What kind of chemical bonds are represented by the product in the following diagram?
katovenus [111]
The chemical bonds in CH4 are all single bonds. C only can bond 4 times because it needs 8 electrons in it's outer shell and only has four right now. The bonds represented are all single bonds because there are two electrons present on each side of the carbon. Two electrons, in this case, equals one bond.
