Answer:

Valence electrons are involved in Reaction B but not in Reaction A.

Explanation:

The description of reaction A in which protons are lost or gained by the atom of the element is a nuclear reaction. In nuclear reactions, the nucleons which are the protons and neutrons drives the reaction. No valence electrons in the orbiting shells are involved in this kind of reaction. During this type of reaction, an atom changes it identity to that of another.

Reaction B in which no identity change occurs is a chemical reaction. In chemical reactions bonds are formed by the atoms using the valence electrons that orbits round the central nucleus. The atoms remain the same but it chose to attain stability and an inert configuration by losing or gaining electrons.

A 0.652-g sample of a pure strontium halide reacts with excess sulfuric acid. the solid strontium sulfate formed is separated, d
seraphim [82]

Answer:

The formula of the original halide is SrCl₂.

Explanation:

  • The balanced equation of this reaction is:

SrX₂ + H₂SO₄ → SrSO₄ + 2 HX, where X is the halide.

  • From the equation stichiometry, 1.0 mole of strontium halide will result in 1.0 mole of SrSO₄.
  • The number of moles of SrSO₄ <em>(n = mass/molar mass) </em>= (0.755 g) / (183.68 g/mole) = 4.11 x 10⁻³ mole.
  • The number of moles of SrX are  4.11 x 10⁻³ moles from the stichiometry of the balanced equation.
  • n = mass / molar mass, n =  4.11 x 10⁻³ moles and mass = 0.652 g.
  • The molar mass of SrX₂ = mass / n = (0.652) / (4.11 x 10⁻³ moles) = 158.62 g/mole.
  • The molar mass of SrX₂ (158.62 g/mole) = Atomic mass of Sr (87.62 g/mole) + (2 x Atomic mass of halide X).
  • The atomic mass of halide X = (158.62 g/mole) - (87.62 g/mole) / 2 = 71 / 2  g/mole = 35.5 g/mole.
  • This is the atomic mass of Cl.
  • <em>So, the formula of the original halide is SrCl₂</em>.

A quantity of an ideal gas is compressed to half its initial volume. the process may be adiabatic, isothermal or isobaric. the g
JulsSmile [24]

the greatest amount of work is required if the process is adiabatic.The correct option is adiabatic.

The process in  which heat is constant is called adiabatic process.

The The process in  which temperature is constant is called isothermal process.

The process in  which pressure is constant is called isobaric process.

The P-V diagram for adiabatic , isothermal and isobaric process is given below.

Work done in process = area encloses by P-V diagram axis . Since area under the curve is maximum for adiabatic process which is shown in the above diagram. So, work done by the gas will be maximum for adiabatic process.

learn more about adiabatic process.

What was the purpose of putting distilled water in the blank cuvette? if your unknown used ethanol as the base solvent, what wou
Margaret [11]

The purpose of using distilled water in the cuvette of the spectrophotometer is to calibrate the instrument. It is generally considered that distilled water shows zero absorbance and 100 % transmittance. So, to zero out the absorbance of compounds other than the analyte being determined, distilled water is used as a blank.

If the unknown being determined is prepared using ethanol as the base solution, the blank used must be ethanol. This is because absorbance if any from the solvent, ethanol must be zeroed out as when the measurement of the actual unknown is being made, the absorbance of the solvent does not interfere.
