By there pH . a pH below 7 is acidic . Above 7 is basic. If it’s right at 7 it’s neutral.

2) Which liberates the most energy?

evablogger [386]

Answer: $F(g)+e^-\rightarrow F^-(g)$

Explanation:

Electron gain enthalpy is defined as energy released on addition of electron to an isolated gaseous atom.

The amount of energy released will be maximum when the tendency to attract electrons is maximum. As flourine has atomic number of 9 and has electronic configuration of 2,7. It can readily gain 1 electron to attain stable noble gas configuration and hence liberates maximum energy.

$F(g)+e^-\rightarrow F^-(g)$

PLEASE ANSWER CORRECTLY PLEASE

The answer is 7. Valence electrons are the electrons in the very last shell, so we need to look at the outer “circle” and count the electrons, or the little black dots. There are 7 in the last shell.

Answer: Th enthalpy of combustion for the given reaction is 594.244 kJ/mol

Explanation: Enthalpy of combustion is defined as the decomposition of a substance in the presence of oxygen gas.

W are given a chemical reaction:

$Mg(s)+\frac{1}{2}O_2(g)\rightarrow MgO(s)$

$c=5760J/^oC$

$\Delta T=0.570^oC$

To calculate the enthalpy change, we use the formula:

$\Delta H=c\Delta T\\\\\Delta H=5760J/^oC\times 0.570^oC=3283.2J$

This is the amount of energy released when 0.1326 grams of sample was burned.

So, energy released when 1 gram of sample was burned is = $\frac{3283.2J}{0.1326g}=24760.181J/g$

Energy 1 mole of magnesium is being combusted, so to calculate the energy released when 1 mole of magnesium ( that is 24 g/mol of magnesium) is being combusted will be:

$\Delta H=24760.181J/g\times 24g/mol\\\\\Delta H=594244.3J/mol\\\\\Delta H=594.244kJ/mol$
