what is the octet rule? ​

Answers

Answer 1
The octet rule states that atoms tend to form compounds in ways that give them eight valence electrons and thus the electron configuration of a noble gas
Answer 2

Answer:

the octet rule is a chemical rule of thumb that reflects the observation that main group elements and bonds and such a way that each has a electrons in its valence shell giving the same electronic configuration as noble gas

Which two reactions are slower than the others?
A. Silver tarnishes in air that contains hydrogen sulfide.
B. Lead nitrate and potassium iodide react to form a yellow
precipitate.
C. Black powder in fireworks burns explosively to produce white
light
D. Iron metal reacts with oxygen in air to form rust.

Answers

Answer:

A and D takes much slower

Explanation:

Here, we want to select, out of the four given reactions, the one that is slower than the other two

The answers in these case are reactions 1 and 4 ( A and D)

The two reactions show what is called rust (as directly seen in reaction 4)

When we speak of rust, we simply mean a reaction that occurs over time

For example, non coated roofings of houses doesn’t get to change color at an instant

The color degradation that occurs is something that takes some time from the initial time they were used to roof the house

Hence, from these analogy, we can see that these reactions need an an external support to thrive or to come into existence

These external supports are natural forces and they contributing efforts occur over time and cannot be seen immediately

These reactions are thus ones that take much slower time than conventional laboratory reactions in the case of the formation of the precipitate or a reaction that requires a low flash point temperature such as that of black powder to produce such explosive effects

So in conclusion, what we are saying is that the two selected reactions are subjected to the availability of some conditions and may take time to manifest and these absolutely differentiates them from reactions that are spontaneous such as the one having an explosive effect or the other one leading to the formation of a precipitate which takes far less times

Is the chemical reaction between magnesium metal and hydrochloric acid solution an acid base reaction?

Answers

Answer:

No

Explanation:

The chemical reaction between magnesium metal and hydrochloric acid solution is not an acid - base reaction.

An acid - base reaction involves an acid and base to produce salt and water.

This reaction is called a neutralization reaction. An acid is a substance that produces excess hydroxonium ions in solutions. A base produces excess hydroxyl ions in solution. When acids and base combines, the main product is a salt in water solution.

In a molecule of calcium sulfide, calcium has two valence electron bonds, and a sulfur atom has six valence electrons. How many lone pairs of electrons are present in the Lewis structure of calcium sulfide?
A. one
B. two
C. three
D. four
E. none
Also, state why.

Answers

There are none

Further explanation

Given

a molecule of calcium sulfide

two valence electron of Calcium(Ca)

six valence electrons of Sulfur(S)

Required

number of lone pairs of electrons

Solution

Lewis structure shows the form of bonds that occur in the valence electrons of an element or compound

Valence electrons are electrons used in a chemical bond

To achieve stability, the element S needs 2 more electrons which are obtained from 2 electrons from the Ca element,

A lone pair electron means refers to an unshared pair of electrons(not bonding to the other atoms)

This condition usually occurs in covalent bonds

As we know, the bond between Ca, which is a group 2 (metal) with Sulfur in group 16, is an ionic bond because it occurs between metal and non-metal ions, so there is no sharing of electrons, but there is a release of electrons from Ca ions to S ions to form an octet. , so all the valence electrons in S are paired

Two moles of aluminum chloride are dissolved in two liters of water.
How does the vapor pressure of the water change?

It increases because aluminum and chloride ions displace water molecules, which escape into the gas phase.

It first decreases as aluminum chloride attracts the water molecules, but it then increases as dissolving completes and starts to push water molecules out.

It decreases because nonvolatile aluminum and chloride ions now occupy some of the volume of the system.

Answers

Answer: It decreases because nonvolatile aluminum and chloride ions now occupy some of the volume of the system.

Explanation:

Vapor pressure of a liquid  is defined as the pressure exerted by the vapors  in equilibrium with the liquid/solution at a particular temperature.

So, when a non-volatile solute is added to a solvent then its molecules align at the surface of liquid. As a result, less number of solvent molecules will escape from the solution. Thus, there will be decrease in vapors and thus the vapor pressure decrease.

The relative lowering of vapor pressure is directly proportional to the amount of dissolved solute.

You noticed that this metal was not a new metal. In fact, this metal was discovered years ago. You determined this when you saw the atomic emission spectrum. As you read the article, you remembered that each atomic emission spectrum is unique to each element and the atomic emission spectrum matched one that was already discovered. Using the techniques from Chemistry, you ran a Flame Test with a piece of the metal (the metal is safe to use) that you had shipped to you. You found the metal turned the flame yellow.

Use your knowledge of modern atomic theory and bonding to explain each of the following experimental observations. (Your explanations should be specific.) Refer to both substances when comparing. Within a family such as the alkaline earth metals, the ionic radius increases as the atomic number increases. The radius of the bromine atom is smaller than the radius of the bromide ion, Br-1. The first ionization energy of aluminum is lower than the first ionization energy of magnesium.

Answers

Answer:

(1) In the modern day periodic table the atomic size is increasing when we  move down the group and it decreases when we move along the period from left to right. that's why Within a family such as the alkaline earth metals, the ionic radius increases as the atomic number increases. Alkaline earth metals have loosely held electrons which results in its increased size.

(2) The radius of the bromine atom is smaller than the radius of the bromide ion, Br-1 this happens because bromine is a non metal, and it also has a high electronegativity among other group elements as halogen group has high electronegativity. when the bromine acquires one extra electron and forms [tex]Br^-[/tex] ion, the configuration of bromine earlier was [tex]1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d104p^5[/tex]  but on addition of the electron the p shell will now have 6 electrons resulting in [tex]1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d104p^6[/tex]the newly added electron repels the former neutral orientation and as a result of repulsion the size increases.

(3) The first ionization energy of Aluminum is lower than that of the first ionization energy of magnesium   because magnesium has fully filled [tex]3s^2[/tex] orbital whereas Aluminum has one electron in the 3p orbitals, fully filled 3s orbitals has strongly held by the nucleus in case of Mg whereas 3p orbitals is shielded from the nucleus therefore it becomes easy to take out 3p electron that 3s electron.

Answers

Answer:

3.97 x 10^-19 J

Explanation:

The energy E of a photon is given by:

       E = hf where h = Planck's constant = 4.14 × 10−15 eV · s and f = frequency

In this case, f = 6×10^14s−1, hence, the energy E of one photon of the light would be;

E = 4.14 × 10−15 eV · s x 6×10^14s−1

               =  2.484 eV

Note that:

1 eV = 1.60 × 10−19 J

Hence,

2.484 eV = 2.484 x 1.60 × 10−19 J

              = 3.97 x 10^-19 J
