When are atoms considered stable?

Chemistry

Debora [2.8K]2 years ago

Answer:

<u>Atoms are at their most stable when their outermost energy level is either empty of electrons or filled with electrons. Sodium atoms have 11 electrons. Two of these are in the lowest energy level, eight are in the second energy level and then one electron is in the third energy level.</u>

Answer:

when they have satisfied the octet rule naturally or through bonding to obtain full valence shells

Explanation:

Generally, most atoms of an element are unstable because they have a void in their electron shell to fill, hence, they need to react with other elements to fulfil this task of octet.

Octet rule states that atoms of elements engage in reactions to form compounds so they can have eight (8) valence electrons in their shell. Noble gases e.g argon, neon etc. are elements that have naturally satisfied this octet rule by possession of 8 valence electrons in their shell. Other elements that do not have this naturally becomes reactive and enter bonding with other atoms to obtain full valence shells.

as 100 milliliters of 0.10 molar KOH is added to 100 milliliters of 0.10 molar HCL at 298 K, the pH of the res?A. decrease to 3B
Mila [183]

Answer:

C. increase to 7.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the undergoing chemical reaction is:

KOH+HCl\rightarrow KCl+H_2O

Thus, the molar relationship is 1 to 1, therefore, the moles are:

n_{HCl}=0.1mol/L*0.1L=0.01molHCl\\n_{KOH}=0.1mol/L*0.1L=0.01molKOH\\

Thus, since the entire hydrogen ions are neutralized, the pH C. increase to 7.

Best regards.

What’s a giant hunk of rock and metal
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer: “We live on a hunk of rock and metal that circles a humdrum star that is one of 400 billion other stars that make up the Milky Way Galaxy which is one of billions of other galaxies which make up a universe which may be one of a very large number, perhaps an infinite number, of other universes. That is a perspective on human life and our culture that is well worth pondering.”

The ionic radius for Na+ is 0.097 ηm and for Cl- is 0.181 ηm, the absolute value of the charge for each ion is 1.6x10-19 C, ε_o=
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

B = (2.953 × 10⁻⁹⁵) N.m⁹

Explanation:

At equilibrium, where the distance between the two ions (ro) is the sum of their ionic radii, the force between the two ions is zero.

That is,

Fa + Fr = 0

Fa = - Fr

Fa = (|q₁q₂|)/(4πε₀r²)

Fr = -B/(r^n) but n = 9

Fr = -B/r⁹

(|q₁q₂|)/(4πε₀r²) = (B/r⁹)

|q₁| = |q₂| = (1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹) C

(1/4πε₀) = k = (8.99 × 10⁹) Nm²/C²

r = 0.097 + 0.181 = 0.278 nm = (2.78 × 10⁻¹⁰) m

(k|q₁q₂|)/(r²) = (B/r⁹)

(k × |q₁q₂|) = (B/r⁷)

B = (k × |q₁q₂| × r⁷)

B = [8.99 × 10⁹ × 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ × 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ × (2.78 × 10⁻¹⁰)⁷]

B = (2.953 × 10⁻⁹⁵) N.m⁹

Consider the reaction of 19.0 g of zinc metal with excess silver nitrate to produce silver metal and zinc nitrate. The reaction
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

14.5 g silver

Explanation:

This is a problem using the stoichiometry of the reaction. First thing we need is the balanced equation:

   Zn + 2 AgNO3 ----------------------- 2 Ag + Zn(NO3)2

We know that 14.6 g of Zn did not reacted, then we can calculate the amount of Zn reacted and do the calculation given the above reaction.

amount Zn reacted: 19.0 -14.6 g Zn = 4.4 g Zn

atomic weight of Zn:  65.37 g/mol

mol Zn reacted: 4.4 g Zn x ( 1 mol Zn/ 65.37 g Zn) = 0.067 mol Zn

We know from the balanced equation that moles of Ag are produced from 1 mol Zn therefore the mol of Ag produced are:

0.067 mol Zn x 2 mol Ag/ 1mol Zn = 0.135 mol Ag

and the mass of silver then will be given by multiplying by the atomic weight of silver:

0.135 mol Ag x  107.9 g/mol = 14.5 g Ag
