Ventilator should be kept in our room give reasons of science ​
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

Ventilators are provided in the rooms at the top of the roofs because if the air inside the room gets hot, the hot air rises up and flows through these ventilators and thus cool air remains at bottom. Thus ventilators maintain conventional currents to keep the air fresh in the room.

In the reaction n2 + 3h2 ---&gt; 2nh3, how many grams of nh3 are produced if 25.0 g n2 reacts with excess h2? question 10 option
Lisa [10]
Molar mass of N2 = 28

Moles of N2 = 25 / 28 = 0.89

So, moles of NH3 produce = 2 x 0.89 = 1.78 

Note: H2 is in excess. so no need to care about it.

Compare which element would have larger first ionization energy: an alkali metal in Period 2 or an alkali metal in Period 4?
maria [59]

Answer:

An alkali metal present in period 2 have larger first ionization energy.

Explanation:

Ionization energy:

The amount of energy required to remove the electron from the atom is called ionization energy.

Trend along period:

As we move from left to right across the periodic table the number of valance electrons in an atom increase. The atomic size tend to decrease in same period of periodic table because the electrons are added with in the same shell. When the electron are added, at the same time protons are also added in the nucleus. The positive charge is going to increase and this charge is greater in effect than the charge of electrons. This effect lead to the greater nuclear attraction. The electrons are pull towards the nucleus and valance shell get closer to the nucleus. As a result of this greater nuclear attraction atomic radius decreases and ionization energy increases because it is very difficult to remove the electron from atom and more energy is required.

Trend along group:

As we move down the group atomic radii increased with increase of atomic number. The addition of electron in next level cause the atomic radii to increased. The hold of nucleus on valance shell become weaker because of shielding of electrons thus size of atom increased.

As the size of atom increases the ionization energy from top to bottom also  decreases because it becomes easier to remove the electron because of less nuclear attraction and as more electrons are added the outer electrons becomes more shielded and away from nucleus.  Thus alkali metal present in period 2 have larger ionization energy because of more nuclear attraction as compared to the alkali metal present in period 4.
