Question 3 (1 point)
Which of the following elements is the most electronegative: arsenic, phosphorus,
sulfur, or selenium?
selenium
arsenic
phosphorus
sulfur

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

sulfur

Explanation:

From the given lists of elements, the one with the most electronegativity is Sulfur.

  Electronegativity is of an element is a property that combines the ability of its atom to lose and gain electrons.

It is a measure of the relative tendency with which the atoms of the element attract valence electrons in a chemical bond.

 

Using the Pauling's electronegative table of elements;

   Here are electronegativity values of the given elements;

selenium                 2.4

arsenic                    2.0

phosphorus            2.1

sulfur                      2.5

We see that the value of sulfur is the highest.

During evaporation, what causes certain liquid molecules to become vapor molecules? A. Decreased fluidity A. Increased viscosity A. Decreased kinetic energy A. Increased kinetic energy.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is A. Decreased Fluidity

Explanation:

Taking the test on preformance matters

In evaporation, particles of liquids take energy in the form of sunlight from the surrounding and then convert into vapor phase. Increased kinetic energy causes certain liquid molecules to become vapor molecules.

What is evaporation?

Evaporation is a physical process in which the water in liquid state converts to gaseous state at the temperature below its boiling point. Evaporation happens before the boiling process.

Evaporation causes cooling effect in the surrounding. During summer when water is kept in earthen pot water cools, this is because of the evaporation process.

Evaporation is affected by temperature. As the temperature increases, kinetic energy of liquid molecules also increases and hence the rate of evaporation increases.

Therefore, increased kinetic energy causes certain liquid molecules to become vapor molecules.

The transition metals (with the exception of Zn, Cd and Hg) are very much hard and have low volatility. Why Zn ,Cd and Hg has low melting points. (a) These have all their electrons paired. (b) These have maximum number of unpaired electrons. (c) These have very strong metallic bonding. (d) These have more metal-metal bonding.

Answers

Answer:

Zn ,Cd and Hg has low melting points because - These have all their electrons paired.

Explanation:

These have all their electrons paired -: All the electrons in the d-subshell are combined with Zn , Cd and Hg. The metallic bonds present in them are, therefore, weak. This is why they have low points of melting and bolting. therefore , this statement is true. These have maximum number of unpaired electrons. Since , these transition metals have all electrons paired , so this statement is incorrect.These have very strong metallic bonding -: Zn, Cd and Hg d-orbital are completely filled. They have poor metallic bonding and less compact packing due to their fully filled d-orbitals, so all of them are volatile in nature. Therefore, this statement is also not valid .These have more metal-metal bonding. -: Since , their metallic bond is weak , so this statement is not true .

Hence , the correct option is A (These have all their electrons paired).

2. In a well-known movie, Raiders of the Lost Ark, there is a famous scene in which the hero tries to outwit the designers of a trap by replacing a gold statue with a bag of sand of about the same volume.

a) Knowing that the density of gold is 19.3 g/mL and sand is 3.1 g/mL, does this seem like a scientifically reasonable plan? Why or why not?

b) In the movie, the hero grabs the gold statue with one hand and appears to handle it quite easily. Given that the volume of the statue appears to be about 1 L, find the mass of the statue.

Answers

Answer:

I cant answer B, but I can answer A, and I don't think it is  a scientifically reasonable plan.  

Explanation:

The bag of sand weighs less than the gold statue, and yes the bag of sand seems like it would keep the trap from activating, but you would scientifically have to put something that was the same weight as the gold statue on the pedestal that the statue is on.

The relative atomic mass of element A : 6.075 u

Further explanation

The elements in nature have several types of isotopes

Isotopes are atoms whose no-atom has the same number of protons while still having a different number of neutrons.

So Isotopes are elements that have the same Atomic Number (Proton)

Atomic mass is the average atomic mass of all its isotopes

Mass atom X = mass isotope 1 . % + mass isotope 2.% ...

Element A

mass number of isotope 1 = 6 , percent : 92.5%

mass number of isotope 2 = 7, percent : 7.5

Relative atomic mass of element A

Where exactly is an orbital? I understand they are a volume where we expect to find electrons 90% of the time but I don't understand where their shapes are and fit on an atom, and the different forms of orbitals confuse me a little. Can someone explain me where they are with the help of an image? Pardon me if my question isn't very clear

Answers

Answer:

95% of the time (or any other percentage you choose), the electron will be found within a fairly easily defined region of space quite close to the nucleus. Such a region of space is called an orbital. You can think of an orbital as being the region of space in which the electron lives

If an object has a mass of 180 g and a density of 6 g/cm^3, what is the volume of the object?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 30 cm³

Explanation:

The volume of a substance when given the density and mass can be found by using the formula

[tex]volume = \frac{mass}{density} \\[/tex]

From the question

mass = 180 g

density = 6 g/cm³

We have

[tex]volume = \frac{180}{6} \\ [/tex]

We have the final answer as

Which answer choice best explains why nuclear reactions release more energy than chemical reactions? Electrostatic forces of repulsion are thousands of times stronger than gravitational forces. Gravitational forces are thousands of times stronger than electrostatic forces of repulsion. The force that binds together protons and neutrons is stronger than the force that attracts and repels protons and electrons. The force that attracts and repels protons and electrons is stronger than the force that binds together protons and neutrons.

Answers

Answer:

The force that binds together protons and neutrons is stronger than the force that attracts and repels protons and electrons.

Explanation:

1. Protons are positively charged. Protons have a mass of 1.

2. Neutrons are uncharged. Neutrons have a mass of 1.

3. Electrons are negatively charged. Electrons have almost no mass.

Nuclear reactions release more energy than chemical reactions as the force that binds together protons and neutrons is stronger than the force that attracts and repels protons and electrons.

Answer:

C) The force that binds together protons and neutrons is stronger than the force that attracts and repels protons and electrons.

Considering the principles of KMT, which scenario would result in an increase of particles effective collisions at STP None of the above None of the above In a balloon In a balloon A container with large volume A container with large volume A container with small volume

Answers

Answer:

A container with small volume

Explanation:

The question is obviously incomplete because the image attachments are missing.

However, it is necessary to note that, the effective collisions depends on the volume of the gas.

The lesser the gas volume, the greater the effective collision between particles at STP.

Hence from the KMT, the scenario having the least volume of gas will have the greatest magnitude of effective collisions.

At 9°C a gas has a volume of 6.17 L. What is its volume when the gas is at standard temperature?

Answers

Answer:

V₂ = 5.97 L

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial temperature = 9°C (9+273 = 282 K)

Initial volume of gas  = 6.17 L

Final volume of gas = ?

Final temperature = standard = 273 K

Solution:

Formula:

The Charles Law will be apply to solve the given problem.

According to this law, 'the volume of given amount of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant number of moles and pressure'

Mathematical expression:

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

V₁ = Initial volume

T₁ = Initial temperature

V₂ = Final volume  

T₂ = Final temperature

Now we will put the values in formula.

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

V₂ = V₁T₂/T₁  

V₂ = 6.17 L ×  273K /  282  k

V₂ = 1684.41 L.K / 282 K

V₂ = 5.97 L
