I would say you should use or test it once a week to ensure it is working properly in an active laboratory since it is a workplace with significant chemical hazards so it would give peace of mind to know on a quite regular basis that it can be relied on in case of an emergency like an eye flush for example.
To determine whether an element is paramagnetic or diamagnetic, you need to examine the electron configuration of the element. If it has unpaired electrons, then the substance is paramagnetic. If the electrons are paired, then it is diamagnetic.
Answer:
- <u>Cadmium has larger atomic radius than sulfur.</u>
Explanation:
Down a period, atomic radii decrease from left to right due to the increase in the number of protons and electrons across a period: when a proton is added the pull of the electrons towards the nucleus is larger, so the size of the atom decreases.
Hence, you can compare the elements that belong to a same period and predict that the atom with lower atomic number (number of protons) will haver larger atomic radius. With that:
- Oxygen and fluorine are in the period 3, being oxygen to the left of fluorine, so oxygen is larger than fluorine.
- Sulfur and chlorine are in the period 4, being sulfur to the left of chlorine, so sulfur is larger than chlorine.
Now see whan happens down a group. Atomic radius increases from top to bottom within a group due to electron shielding. That permits you to compare the size of the elements in a group:
- Fluorine and chlorine are in the same group (17), with chlorine directly below fluorine, so the atomic radius of chlorine is larger than the atomic radius of fluorine.
- Sulfur and oxygen are in the same group (16), with sulfur directlly below oxygen, so sulfur the atomic radius of sulfur is larger than the atocmi radius of oxygen.
So far, you can rank the atomic radius of sulfur, chlorine, fluorine, and oxygen, in increasing order as:
- O < F < Cl < S, concluding that O, F, and Cl have smaller atomic radius than S.
Cadmiun, Cd, is to the left and below sulfur, so both electron shielding (down a group) and increase of the number of protons (down a period) lead to predict the cadmium has a larger atomic radius than sulfur.
Answer:
The answer is 2.660 mol/l
Explanation:
Given: n= 0.0665, v= 25.00ml
Required: C
C (molarity)= n (of solute)/ v (of solvent) [ standard unit: mol/l]
First convert volume of solvent in its standard unit, i.e. litres(L)
v= 25.00ml/1000= 0.02500L
C = 0.0665 mol / 0.02500 L= 2.660 mL (In proper significant digits i.e. 4 sigdigs)
Therefore, The molarity of the sulfuric acid is 2.660 mol/L :)
