Hello there

the first three ionization energies of an element x are 590, 1145, and 4912 kj mol-1. what is the most likely formula of the com

joja [24]

<u>Answer:</u> The chemical formula is $XSO_3$

<u>Explanation:</u>

Ionization energy is defined as the amount of energy that is required to remove an electron from a chemical species.

The ionization energy equation for the given values follow:

$X(g)\rightarrow X^+(g)+e^-;E_I=590kJ/mol$

$X^+(g)\rightarrow X^{2+}(g)+e^-;E_I=1145kJ/mol$

$X^{2+}(g)\rightarrow X^{3+}(g)+e^-;E_I=4912kJ/mol$

From the values of ionization energy above, it can be seen that the ionization energy increases as every succeeding electron is removed.

Second ionization energy is a little higher than the first one but there is a huge amount of difference between the third and second ionization energy.

This implies that the ion formed during second ionization energy has a stable configuration and it requires a humongous amount of heat to release the third electron.

Hence, the ion formed will be $X^{2+}$

Sulfite ion is a polyatomic ion having a chemical formula of $SO_3^{2-}$

An ionic compound is formed between the two ions and the chemical compound formed between the two will have a formula of $XSO_3$

Hence, the chemical formula is $XSO_3$

For some hypothetical metal the equilibrium number of vacancies at 750°C is 2.8 × 1024 m−3. If the density and atomic weight of

mash [69]

Answer:

The correct answer is 5.447 × 10⁻⁵ vacancies per atom.

Explanation:

Based on the given question, the at 750 degree C the number of vacancies or Nv is 2.8 × 10²⁴ m⁻³. The density of the metal is 5.60 g/cm³ or 5.60 × 10⁶ g/m³. The atomic weight of the metal given is 65.6 gram per mole. In order to determine the fraction of vacancies, the formula to be used is,

Fv = Nv/N------ (i)

Here Nv is the number of vacancies and N is the number of atomic sites per unit volume. To find N, the formula to be used is,

N = NA×P/A, here NA is the Avogadro's number, which is equivalent to 6.022 × 10²³ atoms per mol, P is the density and A is the atomic weight. Now putting the values we get,

N = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms/mol × 5.60 × 10⁶ g/m³ / 65.6 g/mol

N = 5.14073 × 10²⁸ atoms/m³

Now putting the values of Nv and N in the equation (i) we get,

Fv = 2.8 × 10²⁴ m⁻³ / 5.14073 × 10²⁸ atoms/m^3

Fv = 5.44669 × 10⁻⁵ vacancies per atom or 5.447 × 10⁻⁵ vacancies/atom.

What does contact forces and non-contact forces mean?

Dmitrij [34]

A contact force is a force in which and object comes in contact with a another object. A non-contact force, is a force is an object applied by another body. (A good example of a non-contact force is gravity)

Oxygen and hydrogen are kept under the same temperature and pressure. Oxygen molecule is 16 times more massive than hydrogen one

lozanna [386]

Explanation:

When we increase the temperature of a substance then there will occur an increase in the kinetic energy of its molecules.

Also, K.E = $\frac{3}{2}kT$

So, kinetic energy is directly proportional to the temperature.

Hence, when temperature and pressure are kept the same for both oxygen and hydrogen gas then values of their kinetic energy will be the same irrespective of their masses.

Thus, we can conclude that kinetic energy of oxygen molecule is the same as compared to hydrogen molecule.
