Answer:

Bromine atom would have smallest radius.

Explanation:

<h3>Comparison between Bromine and Iodine</h3>

As we know that on ascending down the group the size of atom increases as a new shell is added on ascending by one step... so Iodine has a greater size than Bromine.

<h3>Comparison between Bromine and Bromine ion</h3>

As bromine is a halogen atom, so it's ionisation enthalpy is the most in it's period.. so it cannot loose an electron to form a Br+ cation.. so it forms a Br- anion.. by accepting a. electron, so as 1 electron is added to the shell.. the electrons have increased than the no. of protons, so the size would increase as the protons now have to hold more electrons than before, so attraction would decrease. A second reason can also be mentioned as when an electron is added to an atom, it experiences some repulsion from other electrons in same energy shell, so the size would increase. Screening effect of the mid shell electrons also contribute in increasing the size of atom. So Bromine ion would have a greater size than Bromine atom.

By the same analogy the iodine ion would also have grater size than the iodine atom, it also becomes greater in size than the bromine atom..

THUS THE BROMINE ATOM HAS THE LEAST RANKING WHEN ARRANGED IN DECREASING SIZE OF GIVEN SPECIES!!!

Name the two possible products in the precipitation reaction of copper (II) chloride and sodium phosphate. Use the charges on th

satela [25.4K]

Answer:

General equation for a double-displacement reaction:

AB + CD --> AC + BD

• sodium chloride – NaCl copper sulfate – CuSO₄

NaCl + CuSO₄ --> Na₂SO₄ + CuCl₂

The products formed are sodium sulfate and copper (II) chloride.

Copper (II) chloride forms a blue colored solution.

• sodium hydroxide – NaOH copper sulfate – CuSO₄

NaOH + CuSO₄ --> Na₂SO₄ + Cu(OH)₂

The products formed are sodium sulfate and copper (II) hydroxide.

Copper (II) hydroxide forms a blue colored solution.

• sodium phosphate – Na₂HPO₂ copper sulfate – CuSO₄

Na₂HPO₄ + CuSO₄ --> Na₂SO₄ + CuHPO₄

The products formed are sodium sulfate and copper (II) hydrogen phosphate.

Copper (II) hydrogen phosphate forms a blue colored solution.

• sodium chloride – NaCl silver nitrate – AgNO₃

NaCl + AgNO₃--> AgCl + NaNO₃

The products formed are silver chloride and sodium nitrate.

Silver chloride forms a white precipitate.

• sodium hydroxide – NaOH silver nitrate – AgNO₃

NaOH + AgNO₃ --> NaNO₃ + AgOH

The products formed are silver hydroxide and sodium nitrate.

Silver hydroxide forms a white precipitate.

• sodium phosphate – Na₂HPO₄ silver nitrate – AgNO₃

Na₂HPO₄ + AgNO₃ --> NaNO₃ + Ag₂HPO₄

The products formed are sodium nitrate and silver hydrogen phosphate.

Silver hydrogen phosphate forms a colorless solution.

Calculate the energy of one photon of yellow light that has a wavelength of 5.89x10^-7m.

Viktor [21]

Answer:

E = energy = ? ,

λ = Wavelength = 5.89 × 10^-7 m —> = 589 ×10 ^-9 m ,

h =Planck constant = 6.63 × 10^-34 J.s ,

f = frequency of photo/ electromagnetic radiation = c/λ ,

c = Speed of light in a vacuum = 3 × 10^8 m/s

___o___o____

$E = hf \\ \\ E = h \frac{c}{λ} \\ \\ E = 6.63 \times {10}^{ - 34} \frac{3 \times {10}^{8} }{5.89 \times {10}^{ - 7} } \\ \\E = \frac{6.63 \times {10}^{ - 34} \times 3 \times {10}^{8} }{5.89 \times {10}^{ - 7} } \\ \\ E = \frac{663 \times {10}^{ - 36} \times 3 \times {10}^{8} }{589 \times {10}^{ - 9} } \\ \\ E = \frac{1989 \times {10}^{ - 28} }{589 \times {10}^{ - 9} } \\ \\ E = 3.37691 \times {10}^{ - 19} J$
