Contrast ionization energy from electron affinity.

1 answer:

inessss [21]3 years ago

8 0

Answer:

Ionization energy : energy required to take out an electron from the valance orbital of an atom.

Electron affinity: electron affinity of an atom measures the amount of energy released when an electron is forcibly entered or pushed into the valence orbital of an atom.

Ionization energy is the energy required to make an atom into a positive ion. Electron affinity is the energy released when an atom becomes a negative ion.

ionization energy is what is required to remove one electron from a normal gaseous atom to produce a +1 anion of that atom.

electron affinity is the energy required to remove one electron from a gaseous -1 anion of an atom to produce a normal gaseous atom.

How many moles are in 5.0 x 10 *23 atoms of iron?

tamaranim1 [39]

1 mole ------------ 6.02 x 10²³ atoms
? moles ----------- 5.0 x 10²³ atoms

moles = 5.0 x 10²³ / 6.02 x 10²³

= 0.830 moles

Determine the mole fractions and partial pressures of CO2, CH4, and He in a sample of gas that contains 1.20 moles of CO2, 1.79

BARSIC [14]

Answer : The mole fraction and partial pressure of $CH_4,CO_2$ and $He$ gases are, 0.267, 0.179, 0.554 and 1.54, 1.03 and 3.20 atm respectively.

Explanation : Given,

Moles of $CH_4$ = 1.79 mole

Moles of $CO_2$ = 1.20 mole

Moles of $He$ = 3.71 mole

Now we have to calculate the mole fraction of $CH_4,CO_2$ and $He$ gases.

$\text{Mole fraction of }CH_4=\frac{\text{Moles of }CH_4}{\text{Moles of }CH_4+\text{Moles of }CO_2+\text{Moles of }He}$

$\text{Mole fraction of }CH_4=\frac{1.79}{1.79+1.20+3.71}=0.267$

and,

$\text{Mole fraction of }CO_2=\frac{\text{Moles of }CO_2}{\text{Moles of }CH_4+\text{Moles of }CO_2+\text{Moles of }He}$

$\text{Mole fraction of }CO_2=\frac{1.20}{1.79+1.20+3.71}=0.179$

and,

$\text{Mole fraction of }He=\frac{\text{Moles of }He}{\text{Moles of }CH_4+\text{Moles of }CO_2+\text{Moles of }He}$

$\text{Mole fraction of }He=\frac{3.71}{1.79+1.20+3.71}=0.554$

Thus, the mole fraction of $CH_4,CO_2$ and $He$ gases are, 0.267, 0.179 and 0.554 respectively.

Now we have to calculate the partial pressure of $CH_4,CO_2$ and $He$ gases.

According to the Raoult's law,

$p_i=X_i\times p_T$

where,

$p_i$ = partial pressure of gas

$p_T$ = total pressure of gas = 5.78 atm

$X_i$ = mole fraction of gas

$p_{CH_4}=X_{CH_4}\times p_T$

$p_{CH_4}=0.267\times 5.78atm=1.54atm$

and,

$p_{CO_2}=X_{CO_2}\times p_T$

$p_{CO_2}=0.179\times 5.78atm=1.03atm$

and,

$p_{He}=X_{He}\times p_T$

$p_{He}=0.554\times 5.78atm=3.20atm$

Thus, the partial pressure of $CH_4,CO_2$ and $He$ gases are, 1.54, 1.03 and 3.20 atm respectively.
