Among the elements listed, which would show the largest increase between the second and third ionization energies and why?

Yuri [45]

Ionization energy increases from left to right in the row and from bottom to top in a column. Also as we get closer to the nucleus it would be harder to take electrons out. B (atomic #5) has 2 layers of electron 2 and 3 atom in each layer. P has 15 so it would be 2,8 and 5 respectively. Ca is 20 so 2,8,8,2 and Zn is 30 and it would be 2,18,8,2.
For energy between second and third ionization we are looking at taking out the 3rd electron. B already has 3 electron in the first layer so its easy to take them all. P has 5 in the last layer so again easy. But when we look at Ca and Zn after the 2nd electron (in the last layer) we should change the layer go one layer inside. So this needs more energy. To pick between Zn and Ca (they are in the same row) I mentioned earlier that in one row as we go to the right ionization energy increases so the answer is Zn.

Gaseous methane (CH₄) reacts with gaseous oxygen gas (O₂) to produce gaseous carbon dioxide (CO₂) and gaseous water (H₂O) If 0.3

AveGali [126]

Answer : The percent yield of $CO_2$ is, 68.4 %

Solution : Given,

Mass of $CH_4$ = 0.16 g

Mass of $O_2$ = 0.84 g

Molar mass of $CH_4$ = 16 g/mole

Molar mass of $O_2$ = 32 g/mole

Molar mass of $CO_2$ = 44 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of $CH_4$ and $O_2$ .

$\text{ Moles of }CH_4=\frac{\text{ Mass of }CH_4}{\text{ Molar mass of }CH_4}=\frac{0.16g}{16g/mole}=0.01moles$

$\text{ Moles of }O_2=\frac{\text{ Mass of }O_2}{\text{ Molar mass of }O_2}=\frac{0.84g}{32g/mole}=0.026moles$

Now we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.

The balanced chemical reaction is,

$CH_4+2O_2\rightarrow CO_2+2H_2O$

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 2 mole of $O_2$ react with 1 mole of $CH_4$

So, 0.026 moles of $O_2$ react with $\frac{0.026}{2}=0.013$ moles of $CH_4$

From this we conclude that, $CH_4$ is an excess reagent because the given moles are greater than the required moles and $O_2$ is a limiting reagent and it limits the formation of product.

Now we have to calculate the moles of $CO_2$

From the reaction, we conclude that

As, 2 mole of $O_2$ react to give 1 mole of $CO_2$

So, 0.026 moles of $O_2$ react to give $\frac{0.026}{2}=0.013$ moles of $CO_2$

Now we have to calculate the mass of $CO_2$

$\text{ Mass of }CO_2=\text{ Moles of }CO_2\times \text{ Molar mass of }CO_2$

$\text{ Mass of }CO_2=(0.013moles)\times (44g/mole)=0.572g$

Theoretical yield of $CO_2$ = 0.572 g

Experimental yield of $CO_2$ = 0.391 g

Now we have to calculate the percent yield of $CO_2$

$\% \text{ yield of }CO_2=\frac{\text{ Experimental yield of }CO_2}{\text{ Theretical yield of }CO_2}\times 100$

$\% \text{ yield of }CO_2=\frac{0.391g}{0.572g}\times 100=68.4\%$

Therefore, the percent yield of $CO_2$ is, 68.4 %

How to tell if a compound is ionic or molecular?

zhenek [66]

<span>When naming compounds, the first thing you need to do is decide if the compound is ionic or molecular. *Ionic compounds will contain both metals and non-metals, or at least one polyatomic ion. *Acids will always include the (aq) symbol beside the formula, and the name will include the word acid.</span>
