Explain the following phenomena. why Fluorine has lower electron affinity than chlorine​

Chemistry

Radda [10]3 years ago

Electron affinity for fluorine is than chlorine most likely , due to the electron repulsion that occur between the electron where n= 2 . the elements in the second period have such small electron clouds that electron repulsion is greater than that of the rest of the family.

Answer:

Fluorine ,through higher than chlorine in the periodic table,has a very small atomic size.This makes the fluoride anion so formed unstable(Highley reactive) due to very high charge/mass/ratio. ...As a result,fluorine has an electron affinity less than that of <u>Chlorine</u>.

Which period is older than the Triassic period? Cambrian Cretaceous Jurassic Paleogene.
scoundrel [369]

The Triassic period is one of the geological periods and is the shortest of the Mesozoic era. Cambrian is the older era than the Triassic period.

<h3>What is Cambrian and triassic period?</h3>

The Triassic period existed 250 -200 million years ago and started after the vastest and most extreme devastation ever. It is the 1st period of the Mesozoic and is known for the movement of the Dinosaurs on the land, flying pterosaurs and swimming plesiosaurs and ichthyosaurs.

The Cambrian is the period of the Paleozoic era and is the most important period because of the appearance of many animals. In this period, the temperature raised on the planet and the ice sheets melted at a very dangerous rate leading to mass devastation.

Therefore, option A. <u>Cambrian</u> is older than the Triassic period.

krok68 [10]

Answer: The rate constant for the reaction is 3.96\times 10^{-3}min^{-1}

Explanation:

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}

where,

k = rate constant

t = age of sample = 559 min

a = let initial amount of the reactant = 2.83\times 10^{-3}

a - x = amount left after decay process  = 3.06\times 10^{-4}

559min=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{2.83\times 10^{-3}}{3.06\times 10^{-4}}

k=\frac{2.303}{559}\log\frac{2.83\times 10^{-3}}{3.06\times 10^{-4}}

k=3.96\times 10^{-3}min^{-1}

The rate constant for the reaction is 3.96\times 10^{-3}min^{-1}
