Lubov Fominskaja [6]3 years ago
8 0

Explanation:

Atomic size gradually decreases from left to right across the periodic table because within a period of elements, all electrons are added to the same shell. However, at the same time, protons are being added to the nucleus, making it more positively charged. The effect of increasing proton number is greater than that of the increasing electron number. Therefore, there is a stronger nuclear attraction. This means that the nucleus attracts the electrons more strongly, pulling the atom's electron shells closer to the nucleus. As a result, the atomic diameter of the atom decreases.

lana [24]

Answer:

This addition reaction yields 3-BromoPentane and 2-BromoPentane.

Explanation: The reaction is an addition reaction that follows the Markonikoff's principle engaging the electrophillic addition mechnism with electrophile having no lone pair so rearrangement of carbonation is possible. It yields two possible products.

Se tiene una solución acuosa 2M de carbonato de potasio. Expresar su concentración en %p/v y Normalidad.
zepelin [54]

Answer:

Normalidad = 4N

%p/V = 27.6%

Explanation:

La solución 2M de carbonato de potasio contiene 2moles de carbonato por litro de solución. La normalidad son los equivalente de carbonato de potasio (2eq/mol) por litro de solución:

2moles * (2eq/mol) = 4eq / 1L = 4N

El porcentaje peso volumen es el peso de carbonato en gramos dividido en el volumen en mL por 100:

%p/V:

Masa K2CO3 -Masa molar: 138.205g/mol-

2moles * (138.205g/mol) = 276g K2CO3

Volumen:

1L * (1000mL/1L) = 1000mL

%p/V:

276g K2CO3 / 1000mL * 100

<h3>%p/V = 27.6%</h3>
