What's different about the valence electrons of Carbon and Silicon?

Chemistry
1 answer:
STatiana [176]2 years ago
3 0

Carbon is smaller in size than Silicon. ... Carbon has high ionization enthalpy than silicon and lower electron gain enthalpy than Si! Explanation: It is placed in the periodic table before Silicon and lack a d-orbital smaller size due to which effective nuclear force on the valence shell is much higher than in Si!

A solution was prepared by mixing 50.0 g
frez [133]

Answer:

4.78 %.

Explanation:

<em>mass percent is the ratio of the mass of the solute to the mass of the solution multiplied by 100.</em>

<em></em>

<em>mass % = (mass of solute/mass of solution) x 100.</em>

<em></em>

mass of MgSO₄ = 50.0 g,

mass of water = d.V = (0.997 g/mL)(1000.0 mL) = 997.0 g.

mass of the solution = mass of water + mass of MgSO₄ = 997.0 g + 50.0 g = 1047.0 g.

<em>∴ mass % = (mass of solute/mass of solution) x 100</em> = (50.0 g/1047.0 g) x 100 = <em>4.776 % ≅ 4.78 %.</em>

The painkiller, Advil® contains the active ingredient ibuprofen (IB), which has a pKb of
denis23 [38]

This problem is providing the basic dissociation constant of ibuprofen (IB) as 5.20, its pH as 8.20 and is requiring the equilibrium concentration of the aforementioned drug by giving the chemical equation at equilibrium it takes place. The obtained result turned out to be D) 4.0 × 10−7 M, according to the following work:

First of all, we set up an equilibrium expression for the given chemical equation at equilibrium, in which water is omitted for it is liquid and just aqueous species are allowed to be included:

Kb=\frac{[IBH^+][OH^-]}{[IB]}

Next, we calculate the concentration of hydroxide ions and the Kb due to the fact that both the pH and pKb were given:

pOH=14-8.20=5.80

[OH^-]=10^{-5.8}=1.585x10^{-6}M

Kb=10^{-5.20}=6.31x10^{-6}

Then, since the concentration of these ions equal that of the conjugated acid of the ibuprofen (IBH⁺), we can plug in these and the Kb to obtain:

6.31x10^{-6}=\frac{(1.585x10^{-6})(1.585x10^{-6})}{[IB]}

Finally, we solve for the equilibrium concentration of ibuprofen:

[IB]=\frac{(1.585x10^{-6})(1.585x10^{-6})}{6.31x10^{-6}}=4.0x10^{-7}

The Chandra X ray Observatory
AlladinOne [14]

The statement that describes NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory is a space telescope.

Explanation:

Usually telescopes are used by the astronomer's to find objects which are placed in far places.

But Chandra X-ray observatory is the NASA's space telescope.

This telescope is used to find and discover advanced X-rays which are produced in the space due to explosion of stars, clusters and the matter around black hole in the hot regions.

Therefore, this NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory is a space telescope.
