Answer:
The hydrogen atom has just one electron, but many spectral lines. However it contains many shells and the movement of that electron from one shell to another causes the release of energy and also an emission of photons.
A spectral line are dark or bright lines formed within a specific frequency range which differ from other frequencies.Because of the difference of energy for the various shells, it produces different wavelengths and this is the reason for the many spectral line for hydrogen.
Answer:
Electrons get farther from the nucleus.
Explanation:
By going from the top to the bottom of a group, the atomic number increases. That would mean that:
- The number of orbitals increases, as there are more electrons.
- A higher atomic number implies an increasing number of neutrons.
- As there are more electrons, they get farther from the nucleus. The farther an electron is from the nucleus, the easier it is for the electron to be removed from the atom.
Answer:
Making oxygen
Oxygen can be made from hydrogen peroxide, which decomposes slowly to form water and oxygen:
hydrogen peroxide → water + oxygen
2H2O2(aq) → 2H2O(l) + O2(g)
The rate of reaction can be increased using a catalyst, manganese(IV) oxide. When manganese(IV) oxide is added to hydrogen peroxide, bubbles of oxygen are given off.
Apparatus arranged to measure the volume of gas in a reaction. Reaction mixture is in a flask and gas travels out through a pipe in the top and down into a trough of water. It then bubbles up through a beehive shelf into an upturned glass jar filled with water. The gas collects at the top of the jar, forcing water out into the trough below.
To make oxygen in the laboratory, hydrogen peroxide is poured into a conical flask containing some manganese(IV) oxide. The gas produced is collected in an upside-down gas jar filled with water. As the oxygen collects in the top of the gas jar, it pushes the water out.
Instead of the gas jar and water bath, a gas syringe could be used to collect the oxygen.
Answer:
is the oxidizing agent
Explanation:
An oxidizing agent is an element in a reaction that accepts the electrons of another element. It is typically hydrogen, oxide, or any halogen. In this case, it is oxygen. The answer is 02.
A covalent bond is a form of chemical bonding between two non-metals, whereas ionic bonding is a bond between a metal and a non-metal.
