Why Mg ion +2 is smaller than Mg ion ​+1 ?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Bezzdna [24]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Rise in charge reduced the size due to rise in attraction between electron and nucleus.

Explanation:

Ion of magnesium is smaller than the atom of magnesium. As the nuclear charge increases, the attraction of electron to the nucleus increases in charged ions form of any element. Due to this increase in charge of magnesium ion,  the size of ion reduces

No. of electrons in Mg = 12

No. of proton in Mg = 12

Where as

No. of electrons in Mg2+ = 12

No. of proton in Mg2+ = 10

Calculate the concentration of hydroxide ions (OH-) in a solution with a pOH of 2.52?
vodomira [7]

Answer:

The concentration of hydroxide ions is 3.02*10⁻³ M

Explanation:

The pOH (or OH potential) is a measure of the basicity or alkalinity of a contamination and is defined as the negative logarithm of the activity of the hydroxide ions. That is, the concentration of OH- ions:

pOH= -log [OH-]

The pOH has a value between 0 and 14 in aqueous solution, the solutions with pOH being greater than 7 being acidic, and those with pOH less than 7 being basic.

If pOH= 2.52 then

2.52= -log [OH-]

[OH-]= 3.02*10⁻³ M

<u><em>The concentration of hydroxide ions is 3.02*10⁻³ M</em></u>

<u><em></em></u>

Acetylene C2H2 gas is often used in welding torches because of the very high heat produced when it reacts with oxygen O2 gas, pr
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

The correct answer is 0.11 mol O₂

Explanation:

The chemical equation for the reaction of acetylene (C₂H₂) with O₂ to produce carbon dioxide (CO₂) and water (H₂O) is the following:

2 C₂H₂(g) + 5 O₂(g) → 4 CO₂(g) + 2 H₂O(g)

The chemical equation is balanced : with the proper estequiometrical coefficients. According to this, 2 moles of C₂H₂ reacts with 5 moles of O₂ to give 4 moles of CO₂ and 2 moles of H₂O.

In order to calculate how many moles of O₂ are needed to produce 0.085 moles of CO₂, we multiply the 0.085 moles of CO₂ by the factor 5 moles O₂/4 moles CO₂ (because 4 moles of CO₂ are produced by 5 moles of O₂ according to the chemical equation):

0.085 moles CO₂ x (5 moles O₂/4 moles CO₂) = 0.10625 moles O₂ = 0.11 moles O₂
