An extra shell, which means further distance between those electrons in the valence shell and the nucleus. Ionisation energy refers to the energy required to remove valence electrons. There will be more energy required if the valence electrons are closer to the nucleus that have a positive charge, because of more attraction. If there is an extra shell, there is further distance, less attraction and hence less energy required.

How many moles of ethylene (C2H4) can react with 12.9 liters of oxygen gas at 1.2 atmospheres and 297 Kelvin? C2H4(g) + 3O2(g) y
7nadin3 [17]
1) Convert 12.9 liters of Oxygen to mol at the given conditions:

PV = nRT ⇒ n = PV/RT

n = [1.2atm*12.9 l] / [0.082 atm l /K mol * 297K]

n = 0.636 mol of O2

2) use the stoichiometry derived from the balanced chemical equation

 1mol C2H4 / 3  mol O2 =  x mol C2H4 / 0.636 mol O2

x = 0.636 / 3 mol O2 = 0.212 mol O2.

Answer: 0.212 mol O2

Nitrous acid, hno2, has a ka of 7. 1 ✕ 10-4. what are [h3o ], [no2-], and [oh -] in 0. 40 m hno2?
romanna [79]

Nitrous acid, hno2, has an acid dissociation constant - ka of 7. 1 ✕ 10-4. what are [h3o ], [no2-], and [oh -] in 0. 40 m hno2 - 4829 M [OH^-] = 1.439 x 10^-14 M

The acid dissociation constant (Ka) is used to differentiate between strong and weak acids. Strong acids have very high Ka values. The Ka value is determined by examining the equilibrium constant for acid dissociation. The acid dissociates more readily as the Ka increases.

The original molecular definition of an acid, according to Arrhenius, is a molecule that dissociates in an aqueous solution, releasing the hydrogen ion H+ (a proton): HA A + H+. acid dissociation constant is an equilibrium constant for this dissociation reaction.

A reaction occurs when one compound reacts and is broken down into different elements or simpler compounds.
Inessa [10]

Answer:

Decomposition Reaction

Explanation:

If you are referring to what type of reaction that occurred then the answer would be decomposition reaction.

This is a chemical reaction where one reactant is broken down into two or more products.

REACTANT → PRODUCT

       AB       →      A + B

The products can be two or more elements or two or more compounds, depending on what was decomposed.
