Answer:

Have the same number of electrons in their outer energy levels

Explanation:

Elements in the same group have similar chemical properties because they have the same number of valence electron(s) in their outermost shell.

Chlorine and Iodine have similar chemical properties because they have the same number of valence electron in their outermost shell. This can be seen from their electronic configuration as shown below:

Cl (17) => 1s² 2s²2p⁶ 3s²3p⁵

I (53) => [Kr] 4d¹⁰ 5s²5p⁵

From the above illustration:

Outer shell of Cl (3s²3p⁵) = 2 + 5 = 7 electrons

Outer shell of I (5s²5p⁵) = 2 + 5 = 7 electrons

Since they have the same number of valence electrons, therefore, they will have similar chemical properties.

What is the volume of 43.7 g of helium at stp?
tankabanditka [31]
Answer is: volume of helium is 244.72 liters.
m(He) = 43.7 g.
n(He) = m(He) ÷ M(He).
n(He) = 43.7 g ÷ 4 g/mol.
n(He) = 10.925 mol.
V(He) = n(He) · n(He).
V(He) = 10.925 mol · 22.4 L/mol.
V(He) = 244.72 L.
Vm - molar volume at STP.
n - amount of substance.

Which aqueous solution would exhibit a lower freezing point, 0.35 m k2so4 or 0.50 m kcl? explain and show necessary calculations
Umnica [9.8K]
Answer is: a lower freezing point has solution of K₂SO₄.

Change in freezing point from pure solvent to solution: ΔT =i · Kf · b.<span>
Kf - molal freezing-point depression constant for water is 1.86°C/m.
b -  molality, moles of solute per kilogram of solvent.
i - </span>Van't Hoff factor.<span>
b(K</span>₂SO₄<span>) = 0.35 m.
</span>b(KCl) = 0.5 m.
i(K₂SO₄) = 3.
i(KCl) = 2.
ΔT(K₂SO₄) = 3 · 0.35 m · 1.86°C/m.
ΔT(K₂SO₄) = 1.953°C.
ΔT(KCl) = 2 · 0.5 m · 1.86°C/m.
ΔT(KCl) = 1.86°C.

You have a 16.0-oz. (473-mL) glass of lemonade with a concentration of 2.66 M. The lemonade sits out on your counter for a coupl
salantis [7]

<u>Answer:</u> The new concentration of lemonade is 3.90 M

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}     .....(1)

Molarity of lemonade solution = 2.66 M

Volume of solution = 473 mL

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

2.66M=\frac{\text{Moles of lemonade}\times 1000}{473}\\\\\text{Moles of lemonade}=\frac{2.66\times 473}{1000}=1.26mol

Now, calculating the new concentration of lemonade by using equation 1:

Moles of lemonade = 1.26 moles

Volume of solution = (473 - 150) mL = 323 mL

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{New concentration of lemonade}=\frac{1.26\times 1000}{323}\\\\\text{New concentration of lemonade}=3.90M

Hence, the new concentration of lemonade is 3.90 M

If it takes three "breaths" to blow up a balloon to 1.2 l, and each breath supplies the balloon with 0.060 moles of exhaled air,
vesna_86 [32]
<span>It takes 3 breaths to get to 1.2 l. One breath is then (1.2 l) / 3 breaths = .4l/breath. To get to 3.0 l we need the difference from 1.2 l. 3.0-1.2 = 1.8 l. Divide the difference by liters/breath (.4) to get how many needed breaths. (1.8 l)/(.4 l/breath) = 4.5 breaths to get the balloon to 3.0 l. In total there were 3 breaths+ 4.5 breaths = 7.5breaths to get to 3.0 l. To find the total moles multiply 7.5breaths by .060 moles/breath 7.5 breaths*.060moles/breath = .45moles</span>

When 100 ml of 1.0 M Na3PO4 is mixed with 100 ml of 1.0 M AgNO3,a yellow precipitate forms and Ag+ becomes negligibly small. Whi
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

Number of millimoles of Na3PO4 = 1 × 100 = 100

Number of millimoles of AgNO3 = 1 × 100 = 100

When 1 mole of Na3PO4 is dissociated we get 3 moles of sodium ions and 1 mole of phosphate ion

When 1 mole of AgNO3 is dissociated, we get 1 mole of Ag+ and 1 mole of NO3-

As Ag+ concentration is negligible, the dissociated Ag+ ion must have form the precipitate with phosphate ion and as number of moles of Ag+ and phosphate ion are same, therefore the concentration of phosphate ion must be negligible

Here as 100 millimoles of Na3PO4 is there, we get 300 millimoles of Na+ and 100 millimoles of PO43-

And as 100 millimoles of AgNO3 is there, we get 100 millimoles of Ag+ and 100 millimoles of NO3-

∴ Increasing order of concentration will be  PO43- < NO3- < Na+
