What is the reasoning for the location of sodium in the periodic table

2 answers:

8 0

It is where it is because it goes in that group see reason that hydrogen is the first element grouped with some other gases because they are all related.

Due to it's electronic configuration w/c is 1s2 2s2 2ps 3s1 considering the last w/c is 3s1, sodium should be in row 3 period a1.

You wish to prepare a buffer consisting of acetic acid and sodium acetate with a total acetic acetate plus acetate concentration

vovangra [49]

Ans: Acetic acid = 90.3 mM and Sodium acetate = 160 mM

Given:

Acetic Acid/Sodium Acetate buffer of pH = 5.0

Let HA = acetic acid

A- = sodium acetate

Total concentration [HA] + [A-] = 250 mM ------(1)

pKa(acetic acid) = 4.75

Based on Henderson-Hasselbalch equation

pH = pKa + log[A-]/[HA]

[A-]/[HA] = 10^(pH-pKa) = 10^(5-4.75) = 10^0.25 = 1.77

[A-] = 1.77[HA] -----(2)

From (1) and (2)

[HA] + 1.77[HA] = 250 mM

[HA] = 250/2.77 = 90.25 mM

[A-] = 1.77(90.25) = 159.74 mM

Determine how much energy is needed to change 50 g of liquid water at 100°C to steam.

marin [14]

Answer:

$Q=113,000J$

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since the vaporization process is carried out in order to turn a liquid into a gas due to the addition of heat, we can use the following heat equation involving the heat of vaporization of water or any other substance:

$Q=m*\Delta _{vap}H$

Thus, since this heat of vaporization for water is 2259.36 J/g, we plug in this amount to obtain the total energy for this process.

$Q=50*2259.36 J/g\\\\Q=113,000J$

Which is positive due to the necessity of heat.

Regards!

Be sure to answer all parts. Nitric oxide, NO·, is a radical thought to cause ozone destruction by a mechanism similar to that o

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

See image attached and explanation

Explanation:

The stratospheric ozone layer is very important in absorbing high-energy ultraviolet radiation that is harmful to living systems on earth. The concentration of ozone in the stratosphere is determined by both thermal and photochemical pathways for its decomposition. Nitric oxide, NO, is a trace constituent in the stratosphere that reacts with ozone to form nitrogen dioxide, NO2, and the diatomic oxygen molecule. The nitrogen-oxygen bond in NO2 is relatively weak. When an NO2 molecule encounters an oxygen atom, it transfers an oxygen, forming O2 and NO. The chemical reactions involved are formations of NO2 following by reaction of NO2 with atomic oxygen for form NO and O2. The sum of both reactions show that the overall reaction is simply the reaction of ozone with atomic oxygen to form two molecules of molecular oxygen. Hence, NO only serves as a catalyst, it does not undergo a permanent change itself.

How many particles are in 47.7 g of Magnesium? (Round the average

Lynna [10]

Answer:

1.18 × 10²⁴ particles Mg

General Formulas and Concepts:

Chemistry - Atomic Structure

Reading a Periodic Table
Using Dimensional Analysis
Avogadro's Number - 6.022 × 10²³ atoms, molecules, formula units, etc.

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

47.7 g Mg

Step 2: Identify Conversions

Avogadro's Number

Molar Mass of Mg - 24.31 g/mol

Step 3: Convert

$47.7 \ g \ Mg(\frac{1 \ mol \ Mg}{24.31 \ g \ Mg} )(\frac{6.022 \cdot 10^{23} \ particles \ Mg}{1 \ mol \ Mg} )$ = 1.18161 × 10²⁴ particles Mg

Step 4: Check

We are given 3 sig figs. Follow sig fig rules and round.

1.18161 × 10²⁴ particles Mg ≈ 1.18 × 10²⁴ particles Mg
