Answer : Electron affinity (Eea) of an atom or molecule can be defined as the amount of energy released or spent when an electron is being added to a neutral atom or molecule in the gaseous state to form a negative ion.

Chlorine is considered to be the element which has highest electron affinity in the modern periodic table.

The general formula is X + $e^{-}$ ----> $X^{-}$ + energy

It is found that nonmetals have more positive Eea than metals.

Electron affinity increases across the group from left to right in the modern periodic table. Elements with small nucleus have high electron affinity.

Difference between protons neutrons and electrons?

photoshop1234 [79]

Protons and neutrons are in the nucleus of an atom, whereas electrons are present in orbitals, or shells, outside an atom. Electrons are negatively charged, protons positive, and neutrons have no charge, or are neutral. Protons and neutrons have a relative mass of approx. 1 Atomic Mass Unit (amu), whereas electrons have a relative mass of approx 0.00055 amu.

The gas law for an ideal gas at absolute temperature T (in kelvins), pressure P (in atmospheres), and volume V (in liters) is PV

allsm [11]

Answer:

The rate of change of the temperature is 0.0365 Kelvin per minute.

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

ideal gas law: P*V = n*R*T

with P= pressure of the gas ( in atm) = 9.0 atm

with V= volume of the gass (in L) =12L

with n = number of moles = 10 moles

R = gas constant = 0.0821 L*atm* K^−1*mo^−1

T = temperature = TO BE DETERMINED

The volume decreases with a rate of 0.17L/min = dV/dT = -0.17

The pressure increases at a rate of 0.13atm/min = dP/dT

Step 2: The ideal gas law

P * [dV/dT] + V * [dP/dT] = nR * dT/dt

9 atm * (-0.17L/min) + 12L * 0.13atm/min = 10 moles * 0.0821 L*atm* K^−1*mo^−1 *dT/dt

0.03 = 0.821 * dT/dt

dT/dt = 0.03/0.821

dT/dt = 0.0365

Since the gas constant is expressed in Kelvin and not in °C, this means that the rate of chagnge of the temperature is 0.0365 Kelvin per 1 minute.
