<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
Cations are much smaller than their corresponding parent
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
- Parent atom has more electrons and thus the effective nuclear charge on each electron is less.
- When a cation is formed electron(s) is/are lost. Thus the effective nuclear charge or simply put, the attraction of the nucleus towards the electrons increases. Therefore, due to greater pull, the nucleus pulls the shells towards it, there by reducing the size, which makes cations smaller than their corresponding parent.
Answer:
726 torr
Explanation:
Generally, atmospheric pressure can be measured using a manometer which is in form of a U-shaped tube. In addition, 1 mm Hg is equivalent to 1 torr. Therefore, 752 torr is equivalent to 752 mm Hg. Therefore, the total pressure will be equivalent to the atmospheric pressure (mm Hg) + the mercury height.
In this case, the mercury height = -26 mm
Thus:
The helium pressure = 752 - 26 = 726 mm Hg
This is also equivalent to 726 torr
Answer:
The molar mass of a compound is The mass in grams of 1 mole of the compound (Option A)
Explanation:
Let's take ammonia as an example (NH3)
Mass of N = 14 g
Mass of H = 1 g
Molar mass of ammonia is Mass of N + (Mass of H).3
14 + 3 = 17 g/m
Ammonia is a compound that has 1 mol of N, plus 3 moles of H (see the formula)
The number of atoms in 1 mole of the compound --> This is Avogadro
