Answer:

cesium

In particular, cesium (Cs) can give up its valence electron more easily than can lithium (Li). In fact, for the alkali metals (the elements in Group 1), the ease of giving up an electron varies as follows: Cs > Rb > K > Na > Li with Cs the most likely, and Li the least likely, to lose an electron

Use the balanced equation given below to solve the following problem; Calculate the volume in liters of CO produced by the react

Elan Coil [88]

Answer: 40.3 L

Explanation:

To calculate the moles :

$\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}$

$\text{Moles of} Sb_2O_3=\frac{175g}{291.5g/mol}=0.600moles$

$Sb_2O_3+3C\rightarrow 2Sb+3CO$

According to stoichiometry :

1 moles of $Sb_2O_3$ produces = 3 moles of $CO$

Thus 0.600 moles of $Sb_2O_3$ will produce= $\frac{3}{1}\times 0.600=1.80moles$ of $CO$

Volume of $CO=moles\times {\text {Molar volume}}=1.80moles\times 22.4L/mol=40.3L$

Thus 40.3 L of CO is produced.

Needed help plzzz on this chemistry homework.

mrs_skeptik [129]

Hertz is units for frequency. (waves per second)
wavelength = speed/frequency

if you're given the speed use that to calculate, if not then you can probably assume it's a wave of light and use the speed of light (3x10^8 m/s) to calculate.

wavelength = (3x10^8)/(1.28x10^17)
= 0.000000002 m
= 2.34 nm

*WILL MARK BRAINLIEST! Why is it difficult for us to use fusion reactions to produce energy?

kolbaska11 [484]

Fusion occurs constantly on our sun, which produces most of its energy via the nuclear fusion of hydrogen into helium. Neither do fusion reactions produce the large amounts of dangerous radioactive waste that fission reactions do. That's why it's such a dreamy source of energy.
