State, in terms of electrons, why the radius of Na+ ion in the table salt is smaller than the radius of a Na atom.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Anastaziya [24]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

• The Na atom is formed when the Na+ ion gains an electron.

• A Na+ ion has 10 electrons and a Na atom has 11 electrons.

• A sodium atom has one more electron shell than a sodium ion.

• A Na+ ion is formed when a Na atom loses an electron

Penicillinase, also known as β‑lactamase, is a bacterial enzyme that hydrolyzes and inactivates the antibiotic penicillin. Penic
sergeinik [125]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

        V_{max} = 6.8 \times 10^{-10} \mu mol/min

          K_{m} = 5.2 \times 10^{-6} M

Now, according to Michaelis-Menten kinetics,

              V_{o} = V_{max} \times [\frac{S}{(S + Km)}]

where, S = substrate concentration = 10.4 \times 10^{-6} M

Now, putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

        V_{o} = V_{max} \times [\frac{S}{(S + Km)}]

        V_{o} = 6.8 \times 10^{-10} \mu mol/min \times [\frac{10.4 \times 10^{-6} M}{(10.4 \times 10^{-6}M + 5.2 \times 10^{-6} M)}]

            V_{o} = 6.8 \times 10^{-10} \mu mol/min \times 0.667

                              = 4.5 \times 10^{-10} \mu mol/min

This means that V_{o} would approache V_{max}.

when 48 .0g of carbon reacts with oxygen gas to form carbon dioxide, no carbon or oxygen is left over. How much oxygen is reacte
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

128g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of carbon  = 48g

Mass of carbon dioxide  = 176g

Unknown:

Mass of oxygen that reacted  = ?

Solution:

Every chemical reaction must obey the law of conservation of mass. It states that "in a chemical reaction, matter is neither created nor destroyed" .

So;

     Mass of carbon + Mass of oxygen  = Mass of carbon dioxide

Mass of oxygen  = Mass of carbon dioxide  - Mass of carbon

Mass of oxygen  = 176  - 48  = 128g

Why do electrons transition between energy levels within the atom, and how do we detect these transitions?
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Electrons transition between energy levels in an atom due to gain or loss of energy. An electron may gain energy and move from its ground state to one of the accessible excited states. The electron quickly returns to ground state, emitting the energy previously absorbed as a photon of light. The wavelength of light emitted is measured using powerful spectrometers.

Atoms can be excited thermally or by irradiation with light of appropriate frequency.
