State and explain the trend in electron affinity shown by halogens

Chemistry
1 answer:
velikii [3]2 years ago
6 0
<h3>As fluorine sits atop chlorine in the periodic table, most people expect it to have the highest electron affinity, but this is not the case. ... Therefore, chlorine has a higher electron affinity than fluorine, and this orbital structure causes it to have the highest electron affinity of all of the elements.</h3>

Which of the following chemical formulas show three molecules of a compound that has one
mr_godi [17]

The chemical formula : 3HgBr₂(Mercury(II) bromide)

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

The chemical formulas of Mercury and Bromine

Required

The appropriate chemical formula

Solution

A molecular formula is a formula that shows the number of atomic elements that make up a compound.  

The number of molecules is determined by the coefficient in front of the compound

the number of atoms is determined by the subscript after the atom and the coefficient

Three molecules⇒ coefficient = 3

one atom of Mercury ⇒Hg

two atoms of Bromine ⇒ Br₂

The chemical formula : 3HgBr₂

explain the relationship between the rate of effusion of a gas and its molar mass. methane gas (ch4) effuses 3.4 times faster th
Musya8 [376]

The molar mass of the unknown gas is 184.96 g/mol

<h3>Graham's law of diffusion </h3>

This states that the rate of diffusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of the molar mass i.e

R ∝ 1/ √M

R₁/R₂ = √(M₂/M₁)

<h3>How to determine the molar mass of the unknown gas </h3>

The following data were obtained from the question:

  • Rate of unknown gas (R₁) = R
  • Rate of CH₄ (R₂) = 3.4R
  • Molar mass of CH₄ (M₂) = 16 g/mol
  • Molar mass of unknown gas (M₁) =?

The molar mass of the unknown gas can be obtained as follow:

R₁/R₂ = √(M₂/M₁)

R / 3.4R = √(16 / M₁)

1 / 3.4 = √(16 / M₁)

Square both side

(1 / 3.4)² = 16 / M₁

Cross multiply

(1 / 3.4)² × M₁ = 16

Divide both side by (1 / 3.4)²

M₁ = 16 / (1 / 3.4)²

M₁ = 184.96 g/mol
