A sample of chlorine gas is at 300K and 1.00 atm. At what temperature and pressure would it behave more like an ideal gas?

Fofino [41]

In lower temperatures, the molecules of real gases tend to slow down enough that the attractive forces between the individual molecules are no longer negligible. In high pressures, the molecules are forced closer together- as opposed to the further distances between molecules at lower pressures. This closer the distance between the gas molecules, the more likely that attractive forces will develop between the molecules. As such, the ideal gas behavior occurs best in high temperatures and low pressures. (Answer to your question: C) This is because the attraction between molecules are assumed to be negligible in ideal gases, no interactions and transfer of energy between the molecules occur, and as temperature decreases and pressure increases, the more the gas will act like an real gas.

The isotope of an atom containing 31 protons and 39 neutrons suddenly has two neutrons added to it.

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

Gallium-72

Explanation:

The elements are identified by the number of protons of the atom, which is its atomic number.

In this case the number of protons 39 (atomic number 39) permit you to identify the element as gallium.

Now, to identify the isotope you tell the name of the element and add the mass number.

The mass number is the sum of the protons and the neutrons

In this case, the number of neutrons is the original 39 plus the 2 added suddenly, i.e. 39 + 2 = 41, so the mass number is 31 + 41 = 72

Therefore, the isotope is gallium - 72.

Consider the following system at equilibrium:

alexgriva [62]

Answer:

A - Increase (R), Decrease (P), Decrease(q), Triple both (Q) and (R)

B - Increase(P), Increase(q), Decrease (R)

C - Triple (P) and reduce (q) to one third

Explanation:

According to Le Chatelier principle, when a system is in equilibrium and one of the constraints that affect the rate of reaction is applied, the equilibrium will shift so as to annul the effects of the constraint.

P and Q are reactants, an increase in either or both without an equally measurable increase in R (a product) will shift the equilibrium to the right. Also, any decrease in R without a corresponding decrease in either or both of P and Q will shift the equilibrium to the right. Hence, Increase(P), Increase(q), and Decrease (R) will shift the equilibrium to the right.

In the same vein, any increase in R without a corresponding increase in P and Q will shift the equilibrium to the left. The same goes for any decrease in either or both of P and Q without a counter-decrease in R will shift the equilibrium to the left. Hence, Increase (R), Decrease (P), Decrease(q), and Triple both (Q) and (R) will shift the equilibrium to the left.

Any increase or decrease in P with a commensurable decrease or increase in Q (or vice versa) with R remaining constant will create no shift in the equilibrium. Hence, Triple (P) and reduce (q) to one third will create no shift in the equilibrium.

Identify each statement as true or false. Explain in every case.a.Ionization energies are always negative quantities.b.Oxygen ha

worty [1.4K]

Answer:

(a) FALSE

(b) FALSE

(c) TRUE

(d) FALSE

Explanation:

Ionization energy refers to the energy needed for removal of a valence electron present in valence shell of a gaseous atom.

(a) The value of ionization energy of an atom is always positive. This is because energy has to be always supplied or provided to a gaseous atom for the removal of the valence electron.

Therefore, the statement (A) is false

(b) The ionization energy of an atom increases across a period i.e. from left to right. This is because the effective nuclear charge that is experienced by the valence electron increases from left to right in the periodic table, as the atomic number increases.

So, more energy is required to remove the valence electron of fluorine as compared to oxygen.

Therefore, the ionization energy of fluorine is greater than oxygen.

Therefore, the statement (B) is false

(c) First ionization energy is energy needed for removal of first electron present in valence shell of a neutral atom. Whereas, second ionization energy is the energy needed for removal of second electron present in valence shell of a monovalent cation

The second ionization energy of an atom is always greater than the first ionization energy. This is because removing an electron from a positively charged species, requires more energy.

Therefore, the statement (C) is true

(d) The third ionization energy refers to the energy needed to remove the third electron from a divalent cation.

Therefore, the statement (D) is false
