Which of the following best defines valence electrons?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Anon25 [30]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Electrons in the outermost energy level

Explanation:

Electrons fill up levels or rings around the nucleus of the atom. The valance electrons are the electrons on the outermost energy ring or level that is the farthest from the nucleus. Also, all electrons repel each other because they have similar charges and are both negative.

Hope this helps!  :)

Determine the volume, in liters, occupied by 0.015 molecules of oxygen at STp?
Arlecino [84]

5.58 X 10^{-25} Litres is the volume, in liters, occupied by 0.015 molecules of oxygen at STP.

Explanation:

Data given:

molecules of oxygen = 0.015

number of moles of oxygen =?

temperature at STP = 273  K

Pressure at STP = 1 atm

volume = ?

R (gas constant) = 0.08201 L atm/mole K

to convert molecules to moles,

number of moles = \frac{molecules}{Avagadro's number}

number of moles = 2.49 x 10^{-26}

Applying the ideal gas law since the oxygen is at STP,

PV = nRT

rearranging the equation:

V = \frac{nRT}{P}

putting the values in the rearranged equation:

V = \frac{2.49 X10^{-26}   X 0.08201 X 273}{1}

V = 5.58 X 10^{-25} Litres.

An object has balanced forces acting on it. Which of the following describes the result these balanced forces have on the object
dexar [7]

Answer:

C.It remains at rest or moves at constant speed in the same direction.

Explanation:

First, remember the Newton's 1st law of motion which states that the object at rest will remain at rest and that in motion will stay in motion with the same speed and same direction unless acted by unbalance forces.

Balanced forces on an object occur when two forces at act on an object are equal in size and act in opposite direction. In this case, a stationary object will stay at  rest while an object moving will continue to move at the same speed and same direction.

An object acted by balanced forces is said to be at equilibrium, thus the state of motion will be maintained.The object will not accelerate. A good example of an object acted by balanced forces is an object at rest or in constant motion such as a car that stopped at red-light signal or a car travelling at a constant speed.

At 20 ∘C the vapor pressure of benzene C6H6 is 75 torr and that of toluene C7H8 is 22 torr. Assume that benzene and toluene fo
Olegator [25]

Answer:

a) Xbenzene = 0.283

b) Xtoluene = 0.717

Explanation:

At T = 20°C:

⇒ vapor pressure of benzene (P*b) = 75 torr

⇒ vapor pressure toluene (P*t) = 22 torr

Raoult's law:

  • Pi = Xi.P*i

∴ Pi: partial pressure of i

∴ Xi: mole fraction

∴ P*i: vapor pressure at T

a) solution: benzene (b) + toluene (t)

∴ Psln = 37 torr;   at T=20°C

⇒ Psln = Pb + Pt

∴ Pb = (Xb)*(P*b)

∴ Pt = (Xt)*(P*t)

∴ Xb + Xt = 1

⇒ Psln = 37 torr = (Xb)(75 torr) + (1 - Xb)(22 torr)

⇒ 37 torr - 22 torr = (75 torr)Xb - (22 torr)Xb

⇒ 15 torr = 53 torrXb

⇒ Xb = 15 torr / 53 torr

⇒ Xb = 0.283

b) Xb + Xt = 1

⇒ Xt = 1 - Xb

⇒ Xt = 1 - 0.283

⇒ Xt = 0.717

Find the percent composition of each element in KMnO4
VARVARA [1.3K]
The way you want to find the percent composition would be by breaking down the problem like so:

K= atomic mass of K which is 39.098
Mn = atomic mass of Mn which is 54.938
O= atomic mass of o which is 15.999

Then you want to add 39.098+ 54.938+ 15.999 and you get 110.035 which is the molar mass for KMnO

Then you want to take each molar mass and then divide it 110.035 and multiply by 100

Ex. K = 39.098/ 110.035 and the multiply what you get by a 100

You do this for the other elements as well good luck!

Which of the following is NOT a variable property for a gas?
Alex_Xolod [135]
Mass, air has that. Since what fills up a balloon? A gas
Shape, it has no definite shape. This one is accurate, it has no definite shape, it takes the shape of the object it's in.
Volume, does air take up space? If it does then yep. Balloon example/
Density, yes it does, because it's tightly wounded up.
