The atomic number of the product decrease by one in the d) positron emission and the e) electron capture radioactive decay. These radioactive decays are two of three common forms of the Beta Decay which occurred when the proton released a positron and a neutron emitted an electron<span>. The Beta Decay can increase or decrease the atomic number.</span>
D. As more electrons are added to an element, the number of electron orbitals being filled increases
Answer:
kf = 1.16 x 10¹⁸
Explanation:
Step 1: [Ni(H₂O)₆]²⁺ + 1en → [Ni(H₂O)₄(en)]²⁺ ΔG°1 = -42.9 kJmol⁻¹
Step 2: [Ni(H₂O)₄(en)]²⁺ + 1en → [Ni(H₂O)₂(en)₂]²⁺ ΔG°2 = -35.8 kJmol⁻¹
Step 3: [Ni(H₂O)₂(en)₂]²⁺ + 1en → [Ni(en)₃]²⁺ ΔG°3 = -24.3 kJmol⁻¹
________________________________________________________
Overall reaction: [Ni(H₂O)₆]²⁺ + 3en → [Ni(en)₃]²⁺ ΔG°r
ΔG°r = ΔG°1 + ΔG°2 + ΔG°3
ΔG°r = -42.9 - 35.8 - 24.3
ΔG°r = -103.0 kJmol⁻¹
ΔG°r = -RTlnKf
-103,000 Jmol⁻¹ = - 8.31 J.K⁻¹mol⁻¹ x 298 K x lnKf
kf = e ^(-103,000/-8.31x298)
kf = e ^41.59
kf = 1.16 x 10¹⁸
Answer : The correct option is (A).
Explanation :
- Endothermic reaction : When two liquids are combine into a flask, then the flask feels cold when we touch it because the system absorbed heat from the surrounding.
In general, endothermic process absorbs heat and cool the surrounding.
- Exothermic reaction : When two liquids are combine into a flask, then the flask feels hot when we touch it because the system released heat into the surrounding.
In general, exothermic process releases heat and rise the temperature of surrounding.
