What has the lowest ionization erergy?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Svetach [21]3 years ago
3 0

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.

When the potential difference across a lamp is 3.3V the current is 0.15 calculate the resistance of the lamp and give the unit
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

22Ω

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Potential difference  = 3.3V

Current  = 0.15A

Unknown:

Resistance  = ?

Solution:

According to ohm's law, potential difference, current and resistance are related by the expression below;

             V = I R

where V is the voltage

           I is the current

          R is the resistance

          3.3 = 0.15 x R

             R = \frac{3.3}{0.15}   = 22Ω

_Li + __F2 → _LIF<br> How do I balance this?
Semmy [17]

Answer:

 2Li   +   F₂    →    2LiF

Explanation:

The reaction expression is given as:

          Li   +   F₂    →     LiF

We are to balance the expression. In that case, the number of atoms on both sides of the expression must be the same.

 Let use a mathematical approach to solve this problem;

  Assign variables a,b and c as the coefficients that will balance the expression:

             aLi   +  bF₂    →     cLiF

Conserving Li: a  = c

                   F:  2b  = c

          let a = 1, c  = 1 and b  = \frac{1}{2}  

  Multiply through by 2;

        a  = 2, b = 1 and c  = 2

               2Li   +   F₂    →    2LiF

How the proton H gradient is used to make ATP
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

The proton gradient produced by proton pumping during the electron transport chain is used to synthesize ATP. Protons flow down their concentration gradient into the matrix through the membrane protein ATP synthase, causing it to spin (like a water wheel) and catalyze conversion of ADP to ATP.

How many molecules of hypothetical substance b are produced when 29.9g of hypothetical substance a reacts? the molar mass of sub
Andrej [43]
<span>1.15x10^24 molecules of hypothetical substance b Making the assumption that each molecule in hypothetical substance a reacts to produce a single molecule of hypothetical substance b, then the number of molecules of substance b will be the number of moles of substance a multiplied by avogadro's number. So Moles hypothetical substance a = 29.9 g / 15.7 g/mol = 1.904458599 moles This means that we should also have 1.904458599 moles of hypothetical substance b. And to get the number of atoms, multiply by 6.0221409x10^23, so: 1.904458599 * 6.0221409x10^23 = 1.146892x10^24 molecules. Rounding to 3 significant figures gives 1.15x10^24</span>
