Consider this reaction involving an unknown element X. F2+2XBr⟶Br2+2XF When 1.300 g of XBr reacts, 0.7241 g of Br2 is produced.

Calculate the molar mass of X, and then identify its element symbol.

The molar mass of X would be 63.55 g/mol and the chemical symbol of X would be Cu (copper).

From the equation of the reaction: F2+2XBr⟶Br2+2XF

The mole ratio of XBr to Br2 is 2:1

Mole of Br2 = mass/molar mass

                      = 0.7241/159.808

                       = 0.004531 mole

Mole of XBr = 2 x mole of Br2

                      = 2 x 0.004531

                        = 0.009062 mole

Molar mass of XBr = mass/mole

                            = 1.300/0.009062

                                 = 143.456 g/mol

Since the molar mass of Br is 79.904, the molar of X would be:

                             143.456 - 79.904

                                   = 63.55 g/mol

Hence, X would be Cu.

What trend does the first ionization energy follow, going down the periodic
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

C. The first ionization energy decreases because the outermost

electron is farther from the nucleus.

Explanation:

Ionization energy trend along group:

As we move down the group atomic radii increased with increase of atomic number. The addition of electron in next level cause the atomic radii to increased. The hold of nucleus on valance shell become weaker because of shielding of electrons thus size of atom increased.

As the size of atom increases the ionization energy from top to bottom also  decreases because it becomes easier to remove the electron because of less nuclear attraction and as more electrons are added the outer electrons becomes more shielded and away from nucleus.

Ionization energy trend along period:

As we move from left to right across the periodic table the number of valance electrons in an atom increase. The atomic size tend to decrease in same period of periodic table because the electrons are added with in the same shell. When the electron are added, at the same time protons are also added in the nucleus. The positive charge is going to increase and this charge is greater in effect than the charge of electrons. This effect lead to the greater nuclear attraction. The electrons are pull towards the nucleus and valance shell get closer to the nucleus. As a result of this greater nuclear attraction atomic radius decreases and ionization energy increases because it is very difficult to remove the electron from atom and more energy is required.
