why is it important to know the number of valence electrons in an atom?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost energy level of an atom — in the energy level that is farthest away from the nucleus. Being able to determine the number of valence electrons in a particular atom gives you a big clue as to how that atom will react.

Example of market structures of monopoly

Answers

Answer: A monopoly is the absence of competition in the market.

Explanation:

In such circumstances, the market creates a monopoly of one producer who takes huge capital and dictates prices. An example of a monopoly on the market is the existence of only one company that makes up the entire economic branch. In such circumstances, the monopolist can increase the product's price without losing the entire sale, i.e., operating successfully. In that situation, the monopolist remains the only one on the market, and the competition has no access to the market.

Which of the following shows correctly an ion pair and the correct formula for the ionic compound the two ions form?

A) Cu1+, O2–; CuO

B) Cr3+, I–; CrI

C) Sn4+, N3–; Sn4N3

D) Fe3+, O2–; Fe2O3

Answers

Answer:

D) Fe³⁺, O²⁻; Fe₂O₃

Explanation:

Option D shows correctly an ion pair and the correct formula for the ionic compound the two ions form.

Ion pairs of iron and oxygen react to form iron (III) oxide. The iron (III) oxide is one of the oxides of iron. The compound is usually attacked by acids and it is often called rust. It is used in the feedstock of the steel and iron industries. This means that the compound is used in the production of iron, steel, and many alloys.

Below are some equations:

4 Fe + 3 O₂→ 2 Fe₂O₃

Fe⁰ + 3O₂⁰ →  Fe³⁺O₃²⁻

it is made by breaking glucose down

Answer:

Once the last phosphate group is removed from the ATP molecule by hydrolysis, it will form ADP plus inorganic phosphate. ADP is a lower energy molecule. The release of energy during hydrolysis of ATP can be harnessed by the cell to do work. Living things continuously use ATP but it is renewable and can be recycled.

Density of molecules

The density of an object is the mass of the object compared to its volume. The equation for density is: Density = mass/volume or D = m/v. Each substance has its own characteristic density because of the size, mass, and arrangement of its atoms or molecules.

A current of 5.29 A is passed through a Sn(NO3)2 solution for 1.30 h . How much tin is plated out of the solution?

Answers

Answer:

15.26 g of tin

Explanation:

Given that the equation of the process is;

Sn^2+(aq) + 2e ------> Sn(s)

Since 1e = 1F= 96500 C

but q =It

t is in hours so it must be converted to seconds, the SI unit of time

Hence;

119g of tin is deposited by 2 * 96500 C

xg of tin is deposited by 5.29 * 1.30 * 60 * 60

x = 119 * 5.29 * 1.30 * 60 * 60/ 2 * 96500

x = 2946106.8/193000

x= 15.26 g of tin

A current of 5.29 A is passed through a Sn(NO₃)₂ solution for 1.30 hour, the amount of tin plated is 15.26 grams.

How do we calculate mass?

Mass of any deposited susbatnce that is obtained by the passing of current will be calculated by using the Faraday's Law as:

W = ECT/F, where

W = required mass of deposited tin

C = current = 5.29 A

T = time period = 1.30hr = 4,680sec

F = faradays constant = 96500C

E = equivalent mass

Equivalent mass will be calculated as:

E = molar mass/charge on atom = 119/2 = 59.5 g/equ

On putting all these values in the above equation, we get

W = (59.5)(5.29)(4680) / 96500

W = 15.26 g

Hence mass of tin is 15.26 g.

If 2.68 g of benzaldehyde are involved with the mixed aldol condensation reaction, how many moles of benzaldehyde are present? Round your answer to the correct number of significant figures. (reaction has 2:1 mole ratio) 1 acetone is reacted with 2 benzaldehyde

Answers

Answer:

The number of moles of benzaldehyde = 0.0253 moles

Explanation:

The molecular formula of benzaldehyde is C₇H₆O

Its molecular mass is calculated from the atomic masses of the constituent atoms.

C = 12.0 g: H = 1.0 g; O = 16.0 g

Molecular mass = ( 12 * 7) + (1 * 6) + (16 * 1) = 106.0 g/mol

Number of moles of  substance = mass of substance/ molar mass of the substance

mass of benzaldehyde = 2.68; molar mass = 106.0 g/mol

Number of moles of benzaldehyde = 2.68 g/ 106 g/mol = 0.0253 moles

Therefore, the number of moles of benzaldehyde = 0.0253 moles

what substance has a mass of 9.5 grams and a volume of 2.1 cm^3?
SUBSTANCE.

Answers

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass  = 9.5g

Volume  = 2.1cm³

Unknown:

What kind of substance is this = ?

Solution:

To determine the kind of substance given, we need to find its density from the given parameters.

The density of a substance can tell us about such body.

Density is an intensive property and it is the mass per unit volume.

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

Now insert the parameters and solve;

    Density  = [tex]\frac{9.5}{2.1}[/tex]  = 4.52g/cm³

The substance will most likely be a solid.

Answers

Answer:

the answer is pH of 7 I don't no Hydrochloric hijinx work

The equation pH = -log [H+], the pH of a solution with a hydrogen ion concentration is 5. Hence option c is correct.

What is solution?

Solution is defined as a continuous variation of two or more substances in their relative proportions up to what is known as the limit of solubility. Light beams do not disperse in the presence of a solution. In contrast, a suspension of particles might result in Tyndall or Rayleigh scattering. The amount of heat that is released or absorbed during the dissolving process is known as the enthalpy change of solution.

pH is defined as a measurement of how basic or acidic aqueous or other liquid solutions are. A solution's pH is a significant indicator of its chemical composition. The pH can affect how readily available nutrients are, how biological processes work, how bacteria behave, and how chemicals behave.

pH = -log[H+]

pH = -log[1.0 x 10⁻⁵]

pH = 5

Thus, the equation pH = -log [H+], the pH of a solution with a hydrogen ion concentration is 5. Hence option c is correct.

A 0.98 gram sample of a volatile liquid was heated to 348 k. the gas occupied 265 ml of space at a pressure of 0.95 atm. what is the molecular weight of this gas?

Answers

Answer:

The molecular weight is [tex]Z = 111.2 \ g/mol[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The mass of the sample is  [tex]m = 0.98 \ g[/tex]

    The temperature is  [tex]T = 348 K[/tex]

    The volume which the gas occupied is  [tex]V = 265 \ ml = 265 *10^{-3} L[/tex]

     The pressure is  [tex]P = 0.95 \ atm[/tex]

Generally from the ideal gas equation we have that

       [tex]PV = n RT[/tex]

Here n is the number of moles of the gas while the R is the gas constant with value  [tex]R = 0.0821 \ atm \cdot L \cdot mol^{-1} \cdot K^{-1}[/tex]

        [tex]n = \frac{PV}{ RT}[/tex]

=>      [tex]n = \frac{ 0.95 * 265 *10^{-3} }{ 0.0821 * 348}[/tex]

=>      [tex]n = 0.00881 \ mol[/tex]

Generally the molecular weight is mathematically represented as

          [tex]Z = \frac{m}{n}[/tex]

=>      [tex]Z = \frac{0.98 }{0.00881}[/tex]

=>      [tex]Z = 111.2 \ g/mol[/tex]

A. What is the formula of the substance that precipitates first?
B. What is the concentration of carbonate ion when this precipitation first begins?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Concentration of Cu⁺² = 9.25 x 10³ M

Concentration of Mn⁺² = 1.4 x 10² M

solubility product of copper carbonate = 7.08 x 10⁻⁹

solubility product of manganese  carbonate = 2.24 x 10⁻¹¹

solubility product of later is less so carbonate of manganese will come out first .

B )

[ Mn⁺² ] [ CO₃⁻² ] = 2.24 x 10⁻¹¹

1.4 x 10²  [ CO₃⁻² ] = 2.24 x 10⁻¹¹

[ CO₃⁻² ] = 1.6 x 10⁻¹³ .

the concentration of carbonate ion when this precipitation first begins
