Answer:

Because both compounds (CaCl2 and CaBr2) contain elements (bromine and chlorine) from the same group (group 7)

Explanation:

Elements are organized into groups on the periodic table based on the number of valence electrons contained in their outermost shell. These elements in the same group i.e. same number of valence electrons, will behave in a similar manner chemically.

CaCl2 and CaBr2 are two compounds that contains elements (Chlorine and Bromine) from the same group, which is group 7. Elements in group 7 are called HALOGENS and have 7 valence electrons in their outermost shell.

Bromine (Br) and Chorine (Cl) are responsible for the similarity in the properties of CaCl2 and CaBr2 because the Chlorine and Bromine contained in them will cause them to react similarly and behave similarly in the presence of other compounds.

Aleks [24]

Answer:CALINE4 Model and Geographical Information System were used for

the present study to predict the CO concentrations and prepare thematic

maps for the study area.

CALINE4 is a latest model that predicts the concentration of carbon

monoxide impacts near the roadways. The California Department of

Transformation (CALTRANS) developed the model and its purpose is to help

planners protect public health from the adverse effects of carbon monoxide.

The model predictions along with the aid of GIS based model help to arrive at

air shed levels of carbon monoxide. CALINE4 is a simple line source

Gaussian plume dispersion model. The user defines the proposed roadway

geometry, worst-case meteorological parameters, anticipated traffic volumes

and receptor positions to predict the concentrations of pollutant.

CALINE4 is graphical with windows based user interface, designed to

ease data entry and increase the online help capabilities. The model was

developed for predicting the concentrations of relatively inert pollutants such

as carbon monoxide and it is now used for several other pollutants like NO2

and SPM. The model is based on fine tuned Gaussian diffusion equation and

it employs mixing zone concept to characterize the pollutant dispersion over

the roadways. Given the exhaust emission concentrations, meteorology and

site geometry, the model can predict the concentration of pollutants for any experimentation

Ethyne (C2 H2 (g), mc032-1.jpgHf = 226.77 kJ/mol) undergoes complete combustion in the presence of oxygen to produce carbon diox

Gnesinka [82]

2 C2H2 + 5 02 > 4 CO2 + 2 H2O

Products - Reactants ( all units are kJ/mo1):

(4 x -393.5) + (2 x -241.82) - (2 x 226.77) - (5 x 0) = -2511.2 kJ/mo1

-2511.2 kJ/mo1 is for 2 moles of C2H2.The question asked for 1 mole of C2H2, so: -2511.2 / 2 = -1255.6 kJ/mo1

answer: -1255.6 kJ/mo1

List the number of each type of atom on the left side of the equation C5H12(g)+8O2(g)→5CO2(g)+6H2O(g) C 5 H 12 ( g ) + 8 O 2 ( g

Gala2k [10]

Answer:

Carbon=5, hydrogen=12, oxygen=16

Explanation:

Carbon=5, hydrogen=12, oxygen=16

In order to effectively count the number of atoms, we look at the equation closely and take note of the stoichiometric coefficients of each reactant as this influences the number of atoms of that element present.

For instance, oxygen is diatomic and has a stoichiometric coefficient of 8. This implies the there are sixteen atoms of oxygen altogether.

Note that the left hand side refers to the reactants side.

It takes energy to ionize any atom. It takes progressively more and more energy for each successive electron that is removed and

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

Removal of Third Electron

Explanation:

a major jump is required to remove the third electron. In general, successive ionization energies always increase because each subsequent electron is being pulled away from an increasingly more positive ion.

Ionization energy increases from bottom to top within a group, and increases from left to right within a period.
