Why is there such a large jump and ionization energy between the second and third ionization energy‘s for magnesium?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Romashka [77]3 years ago
5 0
The second ionization energy of Mg is larger than the first because it always takes more energy to remove an electron from a positively charged ion than from a neutral atom. The third ionization energy of magnesium is enormous, however, because the Mg2+ ion has a filled-shell electron configuration.

Soloha48 [4]

White phosphorus melts and then vaporizes at high temperatures. The gas effuses at a rate that is 0.404 times that of neon in the same apparatus under the same conditions-There are 4 atoms of P in the molecule

Explanation:

Ar=30,97g/mol

R_{Px/R_Ne}=\sqrt{Mr(Ne)/Mr(Px)}=0,404

0,404=\sqrt{20,18/30,97*x}

0,404^{2}=20,18/30,97*x

X=20,18/30,97*0,163

X=4

There are 4 atoms of P in the molecule

Doss [256]
K + I - > KI 
Potassium (needs to lose 1 electron) responds with Iodine (needs to pick up 1 electron) to fulfill both component's octet, shaping a salt, potassium iodide 
This is a similar case for NaCl, simply unique components. Trust this made a difference.

ioda

Answer:

t = 7.58 * 10¹⁹ seconds

Explanation:

First order rate constant is given as,

k =  (2.303 /t) log  [A₀] /[Aₙ]

where  [A₀]  is the initial concentraion of the reactant; [Aₙ] is the concentration of the reactant at time, <em>t</em>

[A₀]  = 615 calories;

[Aₙ] = 615 - 480 = 135 calories

k = 2.00 * 10⁻²⁰ sec⁻¹

substituting the values in the equation of the rate constant;

2.00 * 10⁻²⁰ sec⁻¹ = (2.303/t) log (615/135)

(2.00 * 10⁻²⁰ sec⁻¹) / log (615/135) = (2.303/t)

t = 2.303 / 3.037 * 10⁻²⁰

t = 7.58 * 10¹⁹ seconds
