Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The energy necessary to remove an electron from a gaseous atom or ion is known as ionization energy.

This means that smaller is the size of an atom more amount of energy has to be supplied to it in order to remove the valence electron. This is because in small atom or element there will be strong force of attraction between the nucleus and electrons.

So, high amount of energy has to be supplied to remove the valence electrons.

As electronic configuration of helium is 1s^{2}. So, due to completely filled valence shell it is more stable in nature.

As a result, we need to provide very high amount of energy to remove an electron from a helium atom.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options helium element would the first ionization energy of the atom be higher than that of the diatomic molecule.

Give the number of significant figures in this number: 40.00
Tatiana [17]

A significant figure is every symbol that made the number itself.

In this case, the number 40.00 has four figures but only two of them are significant 40, this is because you haven't got any more decimals than the first zero.

If you have a case with zeros in front, you take to the first non zero digits.

For example, 0.071004 you wold express as 0.071 and those 7, and 1 are the significant ones.

A) How many moles of CO2 and H2O are formed from 3.85 mole of propane C3H8 (This calculation needs to be done twice-once fro CO2
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

a) 11.55 moles of carbon dioxide gas are formed from 3.85 mole of propane.

15.4 moles of water are formed from 3.85 mole of propane.

b)0.5176 moles of water are formed from 0.647 mole of oxygen gas.

0.1294 moles of propane are consumed.

Explanation:

C_3H_7+5O_2\rightarrow 3CO_2+4H_2O

a) Moles of propane = 3.85 moles

According to reaction, 1 mole of propane gives 3 moles of carbon dioxide gas.

Then 3.85 moles of propane will give:

\frac{3}{1}\times 3.85 mol=11.55 mol of carbon dioxide gas.

11.55 moles of carbon dioxide gas are formed from 3.85 mole of propane.

According to reaction, 1 mole of propane gives 4 moles of water gas.

Then 3.85 moles of propane will give:

\frac{4}{1}\times 3.85 mol=15.4 mol of water .

15.4 moles of water are formed from 3.85 mole of propane.

b) Moles of oxygen gas = 0.647 moles

According to reaction, 5 mole of oxygen gas gives 4 moles of water.

Then 0.647 moles of oxygen will give:

\frac{4}{5}\times 0.647 mol=0.5176 mol of water.

0.5176 moles of water are formed from 0.647 mole of oxygen gas.

According to reaction, 5 mole of oxygen gas reacts with 1 mole of propane.

Then 0.647 moles of oxygen will give:

\frac{1}{5}\times 0.647 mol=0.1294 mol of propane.

0.1294 moles of propane are consumed.

How many liters of a 0.0550 M NaF solution contain 0.163 moles of NaF?
Kobotan [32]

Answer : The volume of solution will be 2.96 liters.

Explanation :

Molarity : It is defined as the number of moles of solute present in one liter of volume of solution.

Formula used :

\text{Molarity}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}

In this question, the solute is NaF.

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get:

0.0550M=\frac{0.163mole}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}

\text{Volume of solution (in L)}=\frac{0.163mole}{0.0550M}

\text{Volume of solution (in L)}=2.96L

Therefore, the volume of solution will be 2.96 liters.

The solubility of glucose at 30°C is 125 g/100 g water. Classify a solution made by adding 550 g of glucose to 400 mL of water a
seraphim [82]
The simplified solubility of glucose at 30°C is 1.25 g/g of water. Considering that the density of water at 30°C is 1 g/mL, the equivalent mass of 400 mL of water is also 400g. 

The concentration of the solution in water is,
                            550 g/400g of water = 1.375 g glucose / g of water

Since the concentration is higher compared to the solubility of glucose at the specified temperature, it can be said that the solution is SATURATED.
