Answer:

Francium (Fr)

Explanation:

From the given choices, francium will have the lowest ionization energy.

Ionization energy is the energy required to remove the most loosely held electron within an atom.

The magnitude of the ionization energy depends on the characteristics of the atom in relation to its nuclear charge, atomic radius, stability etc.

Generally on the periodic table, ionization energy increases from left to right on the table
As you go from metals to non-metals and to gases, the value of the ionization energy increases steadily.
Down the group, the value reduces.
Since Francium is the most metallic of all the given choices, it has the highest ionization energy.

What is the volume of 8.45 grams of carbon dioxide at a pressure of 589 mmHg and a temperature of 10 c

frez [133]

This is a PV=nRT problem, commonly known as ideal gas. For this, we simply need to take what we know and plug it into the equation

Pressure x Volume = moles x ideal gas constant x tempature.

We know our pressure is 589mmHg so we can plug that in. The volume is unknown.

Then, we need to convert 8.45g of CO2 to moles. That is the grams to moles stoichiometry problem. I will not solve the problem for you, however I can set it up for you:

8.45gCO2 1 mole CO2
-------------- x --------------
1 44.01g CO2

At this point, we now have 589 x X= moles.
The ideal gas constant for mmHg should have been given to you, it is 62.4.

Then, we need to convert from celcius to kelvin. To do this, we simply add 273 to 10, since 273 is the standard unit for kelvin.

Now that we have all of our units, we can plug them into the PV=nRT formula, and solve. We are finding the V, so therefore to find it, the P (pressure) needs to equal the nRT. We would multiple nRT together to get an answer, and divide by the pressure to get the missing unit. To make sure you got the right answer, multiply P and V together to see if it equals nRT. And don't forget to round to the least number of sig figs! Hope I could be of help!

The average density of a carbon-fiber-epoxy composite is 1.615 g/cm3. the density of the epoxy resin is 1.21 g/cm3 and that of t

ra1l [238]

The composite material is composed of carbon fiber and epoxy resins. Now, density is an intensive unit. So, to approach this problem, let's assume there is 1 gram of composite material. Thus, mass carbon + mass epoxy = 1 g.

Volume of composite material = 1 g / 1.615 g/cm³ = 0.619 cm³
Volume of carbon fibers = x g / 1.74 g/cm³
Volume of epoxy resin = (1 - x) g / 1.21 g/cm³

a.) V of composite = V of carbon fibers + V of epoxy resin
0.619 = x/1.74 + (1-x)/1.21
Solve for x,
x = 0.824 g carbon fibers
1-x = 0.176 g epoxy resins

Vol % of carbon fibers = [(0.824/1.74) ÷ 0.619]*100 = 76.5%

b.) Weight % of epoxy = 0.176 g epoxy/1 g composite * 100 = 17.6%
Weight % of carbon fibers = 0.824 g carbon/1 g composite * 100 = 82.4%
