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

Chemistry
2 answers:
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>.

How do I determine the number of a particle in a compound?
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

The mathematical equation, N = n × NA, can be used to find the number of atoms, ions or molecules in any amount (in moles) of atoms, ions or molecules: 10 moles of helium atoms = 10 × (6.022 × 1023) = 6.022 × 1024 helium atoms.

What mass of each solute is present in 294 g of a solution that contains 4.86% by mass NaCl and 7.54% by mass Na2CO3
Angelina_Jolie [31]
In order to compute the mass of each solute in the sample, we simply multiply the percentage mass of each solute with the total mass of the solution. This is ad such:
Mass (NaCl) = 0.0486 x 294
Mass (NaCl) = 14.29 grams

Mass(Na₂CO₃) = 0.0754 x 294
Mass(Na₂CO₃) = 22.17 grams

How many grams of calcium chloride are needed to produce 10. 0 g of potassium chloride?
ozzi

Answer:

<u>7.44 grams CaCl2 will produce 10.0 grams KCl.</u>

Explanation:

The equation is balanced:

I've repeated it here, with the elements corrected for their initial capital letter.

CaCl2( aq) K2CO3( aq) → 2KCl( aq) CaCO3( aq)

This equation tells us that 1 mole of CaCl2 will produce 2 moles of KCl.

If we want 10.0g of KCl, we need to convert that mass into moles KCl by dividing by the molar mass of KCl, which is 74.55 grams/mole.

 (10.0 grams KCl)/(74.55 grams/mole) = 0.1341 moles of KCl.

We know that we'll need half that amount of moles CaCl2, since the balanced equation says we'll get twice the moles KCl for every one mole CaCl2.

So we'll need (0.1341 moles KCl)*(1 mole CaCl2/2moles KCl) = 0.0671 moles CaCl2.

The molar mass of CaCl2 is 110.98 grams/mole.

(0.0671 moles CaCl2)*(110.98 grams/mole) = 7.44 grams CaCl2

<u>7.44 grams CaCl2 will produce 10.0 grams KCl.</u>
