Why does carbon dioxide not combust and is therefore a bad fuel compared to hydrogen gas?

Chemistry
1 answer:
erma4kov [3.2K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

But it is not used as domestic fuel, due to several reasons : Hydrogen is not easily available and cost of production is high Unlike other gases, hydrogen is not readily available in the atmosphere. It requires processes like electrolysis of water for its production. This is a very costly process and time consuming.

Explain how the effects of nuclear charge and the increasing number of core electrons in an atom oppose each other.
Kipish [7]
The nulear charge is the number of protons.

As the number of protons increases, the nuclear charge grows ant thhe pulling electrostatic force between them and electrons also grows, given that the electrostatic force is proportional to the magnitude of the charges.

As the number of electrons grows, they occupy outer shelss (farther from the nucleus). And the outer electrons will feel not only the atraction of the protons from the nucleus, but the repulsion of the inner electrons.

Then, we see that the increase of nuclear charge is opposed by the increase of core electrons, and the outer (valence) electrons are not so tied to the nucleus as the core electrons are.

This is called shielding effect. A way to quantify the shielding effect is through the effective nuclear charge which is the number of protons (Z) less the number of core electrons.

The more the number of core shells the greater the shielding effect experience by electros in the outermost shells.

The shielding effect, explains why the valence eletrons are more easily removed from the atom than core electrons, and also explains some  trends of the periodic table: variationof the size of the atoms in a row, the greater the shielding efect, the less the atraction force felt by the outermos electron, the farther they are and the larger the atom.

Strontium sulfate becomes less soluble in an aqueous solution when sodium sulfator is added because
horsena [70]

Answer:

The addition of sulfate ions shifts equilibrium to the left.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, according to the following ionization of strontium sulfate:

SrSO_3(s)\rightleftharpoons Sr^{2+}+SO_4^{2-}

It is evidenced that when sodium sulfate is added, sulfate, SO_4^{2+} is actually added in to the solution, which causes the equilibrium to shift leftwards according to the Le Ch athelier's principle. Thus, the answer in this case would be:

The addition of sulfate ions shifts equilibrium to the left.

Best regards!
