Answer:

Atoms are the smallest particle that make up living both living and non living things, they are made up of subatomic particles; protons, neutrons and electrons. Of these the electrons protons and neutrons are in the nucleus and the protons electrons orbit around the nucleus. Of the subatomic particles, the electrons have the largest smallest mass and are negatively charged, the neutrons (negative charge) (no charge) and protons (positively charged) both have a relative mass of 1. Atoms contain an equal number of protons and neutrons electrons, so carry no overall charge. An element is a substance made up of only two one type of atom. Elements can be found in the Periodic table of elements, they usually have two numbers next to the chemical symbol, the larger number is generally the atomic mass number, which represents the number of neutrons and the number of protons. The smaller number is the relative atomic mass atomic number which represents the number of electrons or neutrons protons. In order to calculate the number of neutrons, you minus the atomic number from the relative atomic mass.

Describe in your own words, in terms of particle movement and energy, what occurs when a liquid is heated to its boiling point.

Evgen [1.6K]

Particulate movement and energy increases when a liquid is heated to its boiling point. Explanation: When a liquid is heated to its boiling point, the form of the liquid changes. ... The particles with cinematic energy begin to move more randomly. So we can say that the particle movement and the energy grow.

marin [14]

Answer:

[A]²

Explanation:

Since the formation is independent of D, D is 0 order.

Since a quadruples when it is doubled it can be written as

2A^X= 4

To find the unknown power we can assume A= 1 to make the math simple. So When a = 2 (Because you doubled it) raised to X power it will equal 4

so the unknown power is 2

Making the rate law

[a]²[b]⁰

or simply just

[A]²

In which of these diatomic molecules would you NOT find an octet of electrons

Semmy [17]

Answer:

The hydrogen molecule is the only one in which can not find an octet of electrons around each atom.

Explanation:

Let's evaluate each case.

1. Nitrogen (N₂):

With Z = 7, nitrogen has the following electronic configuration

1s²

2s² 2p³ → valence electrons

Since its valence electrons are 5, in the molecule one nitrogen atom shares 3 electrons with the other one, and each remains with an electron pair, so each atom has an octet of electrons.

2. Hydrogen (H₂):

With Z = 1, its electronic configuration is:

1s¹ → valence electron

In the molecule, the hydrogen atoms share the only electron they have, so they will have only 2 electrons around. In this diatomic molecule, we can not find an octet.

3. Oxygen (O₂):

Z = 8. Electronic configuration:

1s²

2s² 2p⁴ → valence electrons

In the diatomic molecule, each oxygen atom shares 2 electrons with the other one and remains with 2 pairs of electrons, therefore, each oxygen atom has an octet.

4. Fluorine (F₂)

Z = 9. Electronic configuration:

1s²

2s² 2p⁵ → valence electrons

In this molecule, each fluorine atom shares 1 electron with the other and remains with 3 pairs of electrons, hence, each fluorine atom has an octet of electrons around.

Finally, we can say that the hydrogen molecule is the only one in which can not find an octet of electrons around each atom.

I hope it helps you!

If 3 moles of a compound use 12 J of energy in a reaction, what is the Hreaction in kJ/mol

igomit [66]

Answer:

$\Delta _RH=4x10^{-3}\frac{kJ}{mol}$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the molar enthalpy of reaction is obtained by dividing the involved energy by the reacting moles:

$\Delta _RH=\frac{12J}{3mol} =4\frac{J}{mol}$

Thus, it is important to notice that the compound "uses" the energy, it means that it absorbs the energy, for that reason the sign is positive. Moreover, computing the result in kJ/mol we finally obtain:

$\Delta _RH=4\frac{J}{mol}*\frac{1kJ}{1000J} =4x10^{-3}\frac{kJ}{mol}$

Best regards.
