The element that has 32 protons in its nucleus is GERMANIUM.

The elements in the periodic table are arranged in the order of increasing atomic number. The atomic number of an element is actually the number of protons in that element. For the question given above, the atomic number of germanium is 32, this implies that it has 32 protons in its nucleus. For a neutral atom, the number of proton and electron in the atom is the same. Thus, germanium also has 32 electrons.

The molar heat capacity of an unknown substance is 92.1 J/mol-K. If the unknown has a molar mass of 118 g/mol, what is the speci

dlinn [17]

Answer : The specific heat (J/g-K) of this substance is, 0.780 J/g.K

Explanation :

Molar heat capacity : It is defined as the amount of heat absorbed by one mole of a substance to raise its temperature by one degree Celsius.

1 mole of substance releases heat = 92.1 J/K

As we are given, molar mass of unknown substance is, 118 g/mol that means, the mass of 1 mole of substance is, 118 g.

As, 118 g of substance releases heat = 92.1 J/K

So, 1 g of substance releases heat = $\frac{92.1}{118}=0.780J/g.K$

Thus, the specific heat (J/g-K) of this substance is, 0.780 J/g.K

The elements chlorine and iodine have similar chemical properties because they _____. Group of answer choices have the same numb

worty [1.4K]

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.

Gaseous ICl (0.20 mol) was added to a 2.0 L flask and allowed to decompose at a high temperature:

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

The Kc is 1.36 (but this is not an option, may be the options are wrong, or may be I was .. Thanks!)

Explanation:

Let's think all the situation.

2 ICl(g) ⇄ I₂(g) + Cl₂(g)

Initially 0.20 - -

Initially I have only 0.20 moles of reactant, and nothing of products. In the reaction, an x amount of compound has reacted.

React x x/2 x/2

Because the ratio is 2:1, in the reaction I have the half of moles.

So in equilibrium I will have

(0.20 - x) x/2 x/2

Notice that I have the concentration in equilibrium so:

0.20 - x = 0.060

x = 0.14

So in equilibrium I have formed 0.14/2 moles of I₂ and H₂ (0.07 moles)

Finally, we have to make, the expression for Kc and remember that must to be with concentration in M (mol/L).

As we have a volume of 2L, the values must be /2

Kc = ([I₂]/2 . [H₂]/2) / ([ICl]/2)²

Kc = (0.07/2 . 0.07/2) / (0.060/2)²

Kc = 1.225x10⁻³ / 9x10⁻⁴

Kc = 1.36

A 32.5 g piece of aluminum (which has a specific heat capacity of 0.921 J/g°C) is heated to 82.4°C and dropped into a calorimete

N76 [4]

Answer:

The mass of water = 219.1 grams

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of aluminium = 32.5 grams

specific heat capacity aluminium = 0.921 J/g°C

Temperature = 82.4 °C

Temperature of water = 22.3 °C

The final temperature = 24.2 °C

Step 2: Calculate the mass of water

Heat lost = heat gained

Qlost = -Qgained

Qaluminium = -Qwater

Q = m*c*ΔT

m(aluminium)*c(aluminium)*ΔT(aluminium) = -m(water)*c(water)*ΔT(water)

⇒with m(aluminium) = the mass of aluminium = 32.5 grams

⇒with c(aluminium) = the specific heat of aluminium = 0.921 J/g°C

⇒with ΔT(aluminium) = the change of temperature of aluminium = 24.2 °C - 82.4 °C = -58.2 °C

⇒with m(water) = the mass of water = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒with c(water) = 4.184 J/g°C

⇒with ΔT(water) = the change of temperature of water = 24.2 °C - 22.3 °C = 1.9 °C

32.5 * 0.921 * -58.2 = -m * 4.184 * 1.9

-1742.1 = -7.95m

m = 219.1 grams

The mass of water = 219.1 grams

Why are metallic crystals malleable and ductile? A. The electrons are free floating, allowing them to move with the atoms when t

jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

D. The atoms are arranged with alternating positive and negative charges. When struck, the lattice shifts putting positives against positives and negatives against negatives.

Explanation:

Metallic crystals takes their properties as a result of metallic bonds in between the atoms.

Metallic bond is actually the attraction between the positive nuclei of all the closely packed atoms in the lattice and the electron cloud jointly formed by all the atoms by losing their outermost shell electrons this is by virtue of their low ionization energy.

Physical properties of metals such as malleability, ductility, electrical conductivity, etc can be accounted for by metallic bonds.
