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

1 answer:

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!

Phosphorus-32 is radioactive and has a half life of 14.3 days. What percentage of a sample would be left after 12.6 days

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

There is 54.29 % sample left after 12.6 days

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Half life time = 14.3 days

Time left = 12.6 days

Suppose the original amount is 100.00 grams

Step 2: Calculate the percentage left

X = 100 / 2^n

⇒ with X = The amount of sample after 12.6 days

⇒ with n = (time passed / half-life time) = (12.6/14.3)

X = 100 / 2^(12.6/14.3)

X = 54.29

There is 54.29 % sample left after 12.6 days

Answer:

3.14 grams of ammonium thiocyanate must be used to react completely with 6.5 g barium hydroxide octahydrate.

Explanation:

$Ba(OH)_2.8H_2O(s)+NH_4SCN(s)\rightarrow Ba(SCN)_2(s)+8H_2O(l)+NH_3(g)$

The balance chemical equation is :

$Ba(OH)_2.8H_2O(s)+2NH_4SCN(s)\rightarrow Ba(SCN)_2(s)+10H_2O(l)+2NH_3(g)$

Mass of barium hydroxide octahydrate = 6.5 g

Moles of barium hydroxide octahydrate = $\frac{6.5 g}{315 g/mol}=0.020635 mol$

According to reaction, 2 moles of ammonium thiocyanate reacts with1 mole of barium hydroxide octahydrate. The 0.020635 moles of barium hydroxide octahydrate will react with:

$\frac{2}{1}\times 0.020635 mol=0.04127 mol$

Mass of 0.04127 moles of ammonium thiocyanate;

$0.04127 mol\times 76 g/mol=3.136 g\approx 3.14 g$

3.14 grams of ammonium thiocyanate must be used to react completely with 6.5 g barium hydroxide octahydrate

As a real gas deviates from ideal gas behavior, the particles _____

Alik [6]

Answer:

Have some attraction towards each other

Explanation:

Gases deviate from the ideal gas behavior because their molecules have forces of attraction between them. At high pressure, the molecules of gases are very close to each other so the molecular interactions start operating and these molecules do not strike the walls of the container with full impact.

Hope this helps :-)
