For element radon, give the chemical symbol, atomic number, and group number.

Answer:

a. In the nickel-aluminum galvanic cell, the cathode is nickel electrode.

b. Therefore electrons flow from the aluminium electrode to the nickel electrode.

c. The aluminium electrode loses mass, while the nickel electrode electrode gains mass.

Explanation:

Voltaic or galvanic cells are electrochemical cells in which spontaneous oxidation-reduction reactions. The two halves of the redox reaction are separate and electron transfer is required to occur through an external circuit for the redox reaction to take place. That is, one of the metals in one of the half cells is oxidized while the metal of the other half cell is reduced, producing an exchange of electrons through an external circuit. This makes it possible to take advantage of the electric current.

Given:

E ⁰N i ⁺² = − 0.23 V   is the standard reduction potential for the nickel ion

E ⁰  A l ⁺³ =  − 1.66  V  is the standard reduction potential for the aluminum ion

The most negative potentials  correspond to more reducing substances. In this case, the aluminum ion is the reducing agent, where oxidation takes place. In the anodic half cell oxidations occur, while in the cathode half cell reductions occur. So the aluminum cell acts as the anode while the nickel cell acts as the cathode.

So a. In the nickel-aluminum galvanic cell, the cathode is nickel electrode.

The metal that is oxidized gives electrons to the metal that is reduced through the outer conductor. Then the electrons flow spontaneously from the anode to the cathode.

Then b. Therefore electrons flow from the aluminium electrode to the nickel electrode.

Ni⁺², being the cathode, accepts electrons, becoming Ni (s) and depositing on the Ni electrodes.

So, c. The aluminium electrode loses mass, while the nickel electrode electrode gains mass.

Answer:

[tex]r_A=-1\frac{M}{s}[/tex]

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, given the rate of production of C, we can compute the rate of consumption of A by using the rate relationships which include the stoichiometric coefficients at the denominators (-1 for A and 2 for C) as follows:

[tex]\frac{1}{-1} r_A=\frac{1}{2}r_C[/tex]

In such a way, solving the rate of consumption of A, we obtain:

[tex]r_A=-\frac{1}{2} r_C=-\frac{1}{2}*2\frac{M}{s}\\ \\r_A=-1\frac{M}{s}[/tex]

Clearly, such rate is negative which account for consumption process.

Regards.

CHECK COMPLETE QUESTION BELOW

At a given temperature the vapor pressures of benzene and toluene are 183 mm Hg and 59.2 mm Hg, respectively. Calculate the total vapor pressure over a solution of benzene and toluene with Xbenzene = 0.580.

Answer:

The total vapor pressure is [tex]81.3 mmHg[/tex]

Explanation:

We will be making use of Dalton and Raoults equation in order to calculate the total pressure,

Which is [tex]PT= (PA × XA) +(PB ×XB)[/tex]

PT= total vapor pressure

From the question

Benene's Mole fraction = 0.580

then to get Mole fraction of toluene we will substract the one of benzene from 1. because total mole fraction is always 1.

= (1 - 0.580) = 0.420

Vapor pressure of benzene given = 183 mmHg

Vapor pressure of toluene given= 59.2 mmHg

If we substitute those value into above equation, we have

PT=(183×0.580)+(59.2×0.420)

=81.3mmHg

Therefore,, the total vapor pressure of the solution is 81.3 mmHg

Answer:

Explanation:

[tex]H_3O^+[/tex] also known as hydronium ion is formed as a result of the reaction between an hydrogen proton and a water molecules.

i.e [tex]\mathtt{H^+ + H_2O \to H_3O^+}[/tex]

(molecular geometry for the hydronium ion shows that the lewis structure of hydronium ion possess a three hydrogen ion bonded to a central atom known as oxygen. The oxygen possess a lone pair with a positive ion. So we have three hydrogen atoms and a lone pair attached to the oxygen. We can now say that there are four groups as the steric number in which one of them is a lone pair. This give rise to the trigonal pyramidal shape of the [tex]H_3O^+[/tex] (hydronium ion) with a bond angle of about 109,5°

Similarly, [tex]NH_3[/tex] on the other hand also known as ammonia has a shape that can be also determined by the Lewis structure.

IN ammonia,  there are three hydrogen  and a lone pairs of electron spreading out as far away from each other  from the centre nitrogen. In essence, the valence shell electron pair around hydrogens tend to repel each other. Hence, giving it a trigonal pyramidal shape.

From above the similarities between H3O and NH3 is in their molecular geometry in which both  H3O and NH3 have the same shape.

These molecules are called isoelectronic. Why?

Isoelectronic molecules are molecules having the same number of electrons and same electronic configuration  structure. As a result H3O and NH3 possess the same  number of electrons in the same orbitals and they also posses the same structure.

Answer:

X₅Y₂Z₃

Explanation:

The formula of a compound is determined as the whole number ratio between moles of each element present in the molecule.

The molecule is made from X, Y and Z. To fin the ratio we will divide the given moles in the moles of Y (0.197 moles), because is the element with the low number of moles.

X = 0.492 moles / 0.197 moles = 2.5

Y = 0.197 moles / 0.197 moles = 1

Z = 0.295 moles / 0.197 moles = 1.5

But, as the formula is given just with whole numbers, if we multiply each number twice:

X = 2.5*2 = 5

Y = 1*2 = 2

Z = 1.5*2 = 3

The formula is:

Answer:

[tex]\mathbf {density \ d =4.4845 \ g/cm^3}[/tex]

Explanation:

Let recall the crystal structure of CsBr obtains a BCC structure. In a BCC structure, there exist only two atom per cell.

The density d of CsBr in g/cm³ can be calculated by using the formula:

[tex]\mathtt{ density \ d = \dfrac{z \times molar\ mass \ (M)}{ edge \ length \ (a) \ \times avogadro's \ number \ (N)}}[/tex]

where;

z = 1 mole of CsBr

edge length = 428.7 pm = (4.287 × 10⁻⁸)³ cm

molar mass of CsBr = 212.81 g/mol

avogadro's number = 6.023 × 10²³

[tex]\mathtt{ density \ d = \dfrac{1 \times 212.81}{(4.287 \times 10^{-8})^3 \times 6.023 \times 10^{23}}}[/tex]

Answer:

Each energy sublevel contains a different number of electrons. For example, sublevel D can contain up to 10 electrons

Explanation:

The atoms are surrounded by propellers that within each propeller there is a certain number of electrons, these electrons jump from orbit to orbit according to the amount of energy they have. The four levels that make up the electronic cloud that surrounds an atom are: s p d f.

When these electrons change orbit or level they release energy in the form of light, which is known as a photon.

Answer:

THE FINAL TEMPERATURE OF WATER IS -4.117 °C

Explanation:

Mass of the aluminium = 50 g

c = 0.88 J/g C

Initial temperature of aluminium = 225 °C

Volume of water = 100 ml

Density of water = 1 g/ml

Mass of water = density * volume of water

Mass of water = 1 * 100 = 100 g of water

Initial temperature of water = 20 C

It is worthy to note that the heat of a system is constant and conserved as no heat is lost or gained by a closed system,

So therefore,

heat lost by aluminium = heat gained by water

H = mass * specific heat capacity * temeprature change

So:

m c ( T2- T1) = m c (T2-T1)

50 * 0.88 * ( T2 - 225) = 100 * 4.18 *( T2 - 20)

44 ( T2 - 225 ) = 418 ( T2 - 20)

44 T2 - 9900 = 418 T2 - 8360

-9900 + 8360 = 418 T2 - 44 T2

-1540 = 374 T2

T2 = - 4.117

So therefore the final temperature of water is -4.117 °C

Explanation:

In this case, the first step, we have the attack of the nucleophile cyanide ([tex] CN^-[/tex] produced by sodium cyanide to the carbon on the carbonyl group (C=O) producing a negative charge in the oxygen.

Then HCl protonates the molecule to produce a cyanohydrin. This cyanohydrin can be reduced by the action of hydrogen gas ([tex]H_2[/tex]) in the presence of a catalyst ([tex]Pd[/tex]), producing an amino group. With this in mind, the final molecule is: 1-amino-2-methylpentan-2-ol.

Answer:

a. Cyclohexanone

Explanation:

The principle of IR technique is based on the vibration of the bonds by using the energy that is in this region of the electromagnetic spectrum. For each bond, there is a specific energy that generates a specific vibration. In this case, you want to study the vibration that is given in the carbonyl group C=O. Which is located around 1700 cm-1.

Now, we must remember that the lower the wavenumber we will have less energy. So, what we should look for in these molecules, is a carbonyl group in which less energy is needed to vibrate since we look for the molecule with a smaller wavenumber.

If we look at the structure of all the molecules we will find that in the last three we have heteroatoms (atoms different to carbon I hydrogen) on the right side of the carbonyl group. These atoms allow the production of resonance structures which makes the molecule more stable. If the molecule is more stable we will need more energy to make it vibrate and therefore greater wavenumbers.

The molecule that fulfills this condition is the cyclohexanone.

[tex]a^{2} + 3.0 \times 10^{-8}a - 4.5 \times 10^{-10} = 0[/tex]

Now Solves the quadratic equation i.e.

[tex]a = 2.120 \times 10^{-5}[/tex]

[tex][H+] = a = 2.120 \times 10^{-5} M[/tex]

= 0.14%

Hence, the percentage of hypochlorous ionization is 0.14%

Explanation:

To obtain the empirical and molecular formula of this compound from the percent composition of the elements, we follow the steps below;

Step 1: Divide the percentage composition by the atomic mass

Sulphur = 31.42 / 32 = 0.9819

Oxygen = 31.35 / 16 = 1.9594

Flourine = 37.23 / 19 = 1.9595

Step 2: Divide by the lowest number

Sulphur = 0.9819 / 0.9819 = 1

Oxygen = 1.9594 / 0.9819 ≈ 2

Flourine = 1.9595 / 0.9819 ≈ 2

This means the ratio of the elements is 1 : 2: 2

The empirical formular (simplest formular of a compound) of the compound is;

SO₂F₂

To obtain the molecular formular (Actual formular of a compound);

(SO₂F₂)n = 102.1

Inserting the atomic masses and solving for n;

(102)n = 102.1

n ≈ 1

The molecular formular is; (SO₂F₂)₁ = SO₂F₂

Answer:

n = 0.207 mole

Explanation:

We have,

P = 1 atm

V = 5 liter

R = 0.0821 L.atm/mol.K

T = 293 K

We need to find the value of n. The relation is as follows :

PV = nRT

Solving for n,

[tex]n=\dfrac{PV}{RT}\\\\n=\dfrac{1\times 5}{0.0821 \times 293}\\\\n=0.207\ \text{mol}[/tex]

So, the value of n is 0.207 mol.

Answer:

36.7 mg

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question.

Original amount (A₀) = 65.1 mg

Rate constant (K) = 2.47×10¯² years¯¹

Time (t) = 23.2 years

Amount of substance remaining (A) =?

Thus, we can obtain the amount of substance remaining after 23.2 years as follow

ln A = lnA₀ – Kt

lnA = ln(65.1) – (2.47×10¯² × 23.2)

lnA = 4.1759 – 0.57304

lnA = 3.60286

Take the inverse of ln

A = e^3.60286

A = 36.7 mg

Therefore, the amount remaining after 23.2 years is 36.7 mg.

Ka = 6.87x10⁻⁵

Explanation:

The equilibrium of benzoic acid in water is:

C₆H₅COOH(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ C₆H₅COO⁻(aq) + H₃O⁺(aq)

The equilibrium constant, Ka, is:

Ka = [C₆H₅COO⁻] [H₃O⁺] / [C₆H₅COOH]

The initial concentration of benzoic acid is 0.425M. In equilibrium its concentration is 0.425M - X and [C₆H₅COO⁻] [H₃O⁺] = X.

X is the reaction coordinate. How many acid produce C₆H₅COO⁻ and H₃O⁺ until reach equilibrium.

Concentrations in equilibrium are:

pH is defined as -log [H₃O⁺]. As pH = 2.270

2.270 = -log [H₃O⁺]

10^-2.270 = [H₃O⁺]

5.37x10⁻³M = [H₃O⁺] = X.

Replacing, concentrations in equilibrium are:

[C₆H₅COOH] = 0.425M - 5.37x10⁻³M = 0.4196M

[C₆H₅COO⁻] = 5.37x10⁻³M

[H₃O⁺] = 5.37x10⁻³M

Ka = [5.37x10⁻³M] [5.37x10⁻³M] / [0.4196M]

Answer:

D) 65.7%

Explanation:

Based on the reaction:

2H2(g)+O2(g)⟶2H2O(l)

2 moles of hydrogen produce 2 moles of water assuming an excess of oxygen.

To find percent yield of the reaction we need to find theoretical yield (The yield assuming all hydrogen reacts producing water). With theoretical yield and actual yield (32.8g H₂O) we can determine percent yield as 100 times the ratio between actual yield and theoretical yield.

Theoretical yield:

Moles of 5.58g H₂:

5.58g H₂ ₓ (1 mol / 2.016g) = 2.768 moles H₂

As 2 moles of H₂ produce 2 moles of H₂O, if all hydrogen reacts will produce 2.768 moles H₂O. In grams:

2.768 moles H₂O ₓ (18.015g / mol) =

49.86g H₂O is theoretical yield

Percent yield:

Percent yield = Actual yield / Theoretical yield ₓ 100

32.8g H₂O / 49.86g ₓ 100 =

65.7% is percent yield of the reaction

Answer:

5.90

Explanation:

Initial moles of CH3COO- = 10.0/1000 x 0.75 = 0.0075 mol

Moles of HCl added = 5.0/1000 x 0.10 = 0.0005 mol

CH3COO- + HCl => CH3COOH + Cl-

Moles of CH3COO- left = 0.0075 - 0.0005 = 0.007 mol

Moles of CH3COOH formed = moles of HCl added = 0.0005 mol

pH = pKa + log([CH3COO-]/[CH3COOH])

= -log Ka + log(moles of CH3COO-/moles of CH3COOH)

= -log(1.78 x 10^(-5)) + log(0.007/0.0005)

= 5.90

Answer:

The correct answer is 5.895.

Explanation:

The reaction will be,

CHCOO⁻ + H+ ⇔ CH₃COOH

Both the HCl and the acetate are having one n factor.

The millimoles of CH₃COO⁻ is,

= Volume in ml × molarity = 10 × 0.75 = 7.5

The millimoles of HCl = Volume in ml × molarity = 5 × 0.1 = 0.5

Therefore, 0.5 will be the millimoles of CH₃COOH formed, now the millimoles of the CH₃COO⁻ left will be, 7.5-0.5 = 7.0

The volume of the solution is, 10+5 = 15 ml

The molarity of CH₃COO⁻ is, millimoles / volume in ml = 7/15

The molarity of CH₃COOH is 0.5/15

pH = pKa + log[CH₃COO⁻]/[CH₃COOH]

= 4.74957 + 1.146

= 5.895
