Which of the following best helps to explain why the electron affinity of Br has a greater magnitude than that of I?

Chemistry

tankabanditka [31]2 years ago

The reason why  Br has a greater magnitude of electron affinity than that of I is that there is a greater attraction between an added electron and the nucleus in Br than in I.

In the periodic table, there are trends that increase down the group and across the period. Electron affinity is a trend that increases across the period but decreases down the group.

Recall that the ability of an atom to accept an electron depends on the size of the atom. The smaller the atom, the greater the attraction between an added electron and the nucleus.

Since Br is smaller than I, there is a greater attraction between an added electron and the nucleus in Br than in I which explains why Br has a greater magnitude of electron affinity than  I.

An increase in temperature affects the reaction rate by >decreasing the velocities of particles that collide in the reaction.
Bond [772]

Answer:

increasing the number of molecules that have sufficient kinetic energy to react.

Explanation:

An increase in temperature affects the reaction rate by increasing the number of molecules that have sufficient kinetic energy to react.

or we say; temperature increase, leads to an increase in the amount of collisions between molecules.

If an atom has 11 protons and 13 neutrons what is it’s atomic number
Travka [436]

Answer:

the atomic number is 11 and element is Sodium (Na)

Explanation:

Number of Protons = Number of Electrons = 11

Number of Neutrons = 13

Here, the Number of Protons and Number of Electrons is 11

So,

the atomic number is <em><u>11</u></em> and element is <em><u>Sodium </u></em><em><u>(</u></em><em><u>Na) </u></em>

Complete combustion of 8.10 g of a hydrocarbon produced 25.9 g of CO2 and 9.27 g of H2O. What is the empirical formula for the h
balu736 [363]

CxHy     +  O2    -->    x CO2     +    y/2  H2O

 

Find the moles of CO2 :     18.9g  /  44 g/mol   =    .430 mol CO2   = .430 mol of C in compound

Find the moles of H2O:      5.79g / 18 g/mol     =     .322 mol H2O   = .166 mol of H in compound

 

Find the mass of C and H in the compound:

                             .430mol  x 12  =  5.16 g C

                              .166mol  x 1g   = .166g H   

 

When you add these up they indicate a mass of 5.33 g for the compound, not 5.80g as you stated in the problem.

Therefore it is likely that either the mass of the CO2 or the mass of H20 produced is incorrect (most likely a typo).

In any event, to find the formula, you would take the moles of C and H and convert to a whole number ratio (this is usually done by dividing both of them by the smaller value).
