Answer:

1. light is made up of energy

2. light travels in a straight line

3. the speed of light is exactly 299 792 km per second

4. this is the speed when light is traveling in a vacuum and not obstructed by the atmosphere 5. traveling at the speed of light you could go around the earth seven and a half times in a second

6. light can move super fast super slow and not at all

7. we can use light to weigh Stars

The iodine "clock reaction" involves the following sequence of reactions occurring in a reaction mixture in a single beaker. 1.

Mars2501 [29]

C: 0.012 mol.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Start with 0.0020 moles of iodate ions ${\text{IO}_{3}}^{-}$ .

How many moles of iodine $\text{I}_2$ will be produced?

${\text{IO}_{3}}^{-}$ converts to $\text{I}_2$ in the first reaction. The coefficient in front of $\text{I}_2$ is three times the coefficient in front of ${\text{IO}_{3}}^{-}$ . In other words, each mole of ${\text{IO}_{3}}^{-}$ will produce three moles of $\text{I}_2$ . 0.0020 moles of ${\text{IO}_{3}}^{-}$ will convert to 0.0060 moles of $\text{I}_2$ .

How many moles of thiosulfate ions ${\text{S}_2\text{O}_3}^{2-}$ are required?

$\text{I}_2$ reacts with ${\text{S}_2\text{O}_3}^{2-}$ in the second reaction. The coefficient in front of $\text{I}_2$ is twice the coefficient in front of ${\text{S}_2\text{O}_3}^{2-}$ . How many moles of ${\text{S}_2\text{O}_3}^{2-}$ does each mole of $\text{I}_2$ consume? Two. 0.0060 moles of $\text{I}_2$ will be produced. As a result, $2 \times 0.0060 = 0.0120$ moles of ${\text{S}_2\text{O}_3}^{2-}$ will be needed.

Calculate the solubility at 25°C of CuBr in pure water and in a 0.0120M CoBr2 solution. You'll find Ksp data in the ALEKS Data t

iragen [17]

Answer:

S = 7.9 × 10⁻⁵ M

S' = 2.6 × 10⁻⁷ M

Explanation:

To calculate the solubility of CuBr in pure water (S) we will use an ICE Chart. We identify 3 stages (Initial-Change-Equilibrium) and complete each row with the concentration or change in concentration. Let's consider the solution of CuBr.

CuBr(s) ⇄ Cu⁺(aq) + Br⁻(aq)

I 0 0

C +S +S

E S S

The solubility product (Ksp) is:

Ksp = 6.27 × 10⁻⁹ = [Cu⁺].[Br⁻] = S²

S = 7.9 × 10⁻⁵ M

Solubility in 0.0120 M CoBr₂ (S')

First, we will consider the ionization of CoBr₂, a strong electrolyte.

CoBr₂(aq) → Co²⁺(aq) + 2 Br⁻(aq)

1 mole of CoBr₂ produces 2 moles of Br⁻. Then, the concentration of Br⁻ will be 2 × 0.0120 M = 0.0240 M.

Then,

CuBr(s) ⇄ Cu⁺(aq) + Br⁻(aq)

I 0 0.0240

C +S' +S'

E S' 0.0240 + S'

Ksp = 6.27 × 10⁻⁹ = [Cu⁺].[Br⁻] = S' . (0.0240 + S')

In the term (0.0240 + S'), S' is very small so we can neglect it to simplify the calculations.

S' = 2.6 × 10⁻⁷ M

How many atoms are there in 5.00 mol of sulphur (S)?

Mumz [18]

Answer:

3.01 × 10²⁴ atoms S

General Formulas and Concepts:

Chemistry - Atomic Structure

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

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

5.00 mol S

Step 2: Identify Conversions

Avogadro's Number

Step 3: Convert

$5.00 \ mol \ S(\frac{6.022 \cdot 10^{23} \ atoms \ S}{1 \ mol \ S} )$ = 3.011 × 10²⁴ atoms S

Step 4: Check

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

3.011 × 10²⁴ atoms S ≈ 3.01 × 10²⁴ atoms S

Given any two elements within a group, is the element with the larger atomic number likely to have a larger or smaller atomic ra

zhenek [66]

Answer:

Atomic radius of sodium = 227 pm

Atomic radius of potassium = 280 pm

Explanation:

Atomic radii trend along group:

As we move down the group atomic radii increased with increase of atomic number. The addition of electron in next level cause the atomic radii to increased. The hold of nucleus on valance shell become weaker because of shielding of electrons thus size of atom increased.

Consider the example of sodium and potassium.

Sodium is present above the potassium with in same group i.e, group one.

The atomic number of sodium is 11 and potassium 19.

So potassium will have larger atomic radius as compared to sodium.

Atomic radius of sodium = 227 pm

Atomic radius of potassium = 280 pm
