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!

How may a substance be tested to determine whether or not it is an element
yaroslaw [1]

Always remember that a compound can be separated into simpler substances by chemical methods/reactions. While elements cannot be broken down into simpler substances by chemical reactions. You can do a flame test and spectrum analysis to determine whether a solid material is an element or a compound. Check the boiling and/or melting point, color or density. Also check the solid material’s reaction with oxygen, hydrogen, calcium, or various acids. Examine and study its physical chemistry. The element(s) that may be present may be identified by checking the absorption edges from an x-ray spectrum.

Calculate the equilibrium constant K for the following reaction: H2(g) +
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

192.9

Explanation:

From the question,

Ke = [HCL]²/[H₂][CL₂].......................... Equation 1

Where Ke = Equilibrium constant.

Given: [HCL] = 0.0625 M, [H₂] = 0.0045 M, [CL₂] = 0.0045 M

Substitute these values into equation 1

Ke = (0.0625)²/(0.0045)(0.0045)

ke = (3.90625×10⁻³)/(2.025×10⁻⁵)

ke = 1.929×10²

ke = 192.9

Hence the equilibrium constant of the system = 192.9
