The answer is: the chemical property of unknown element is number of valence electrons and electronegativity.

For example, if sodium and chlorine reacts.

Sodium has 11 electrons (one valence electron) and lost one electron to obtain electron configuration of noble gas neon. ₁₁Na⁺ 1s²2s²2p⁶.

Chlorine has 17 electrons (seven valence electrons), chlorine gain one electron to obtain electron configuration of noble gas argon. ₁₇Cl⁻ 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶.

Electronegativity is a chemical property that describes the tendency of an atom to attract a shared pair of electrons towards itself.

A 25.0-g sample of ice at -6.5oC is removed from the freezer and allowed to warm until it melts. Given the data below, select al
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

B, D

Explanation:

The strategy here is to realize that the ice will be taken from -6.5 ºC to OºC where it will melt.

Lets call q₁ the heat required to bring the ice to 0ºc, q₂ the heat required to bring the phase change from solid to liquid.

q₁ is calculated from the expression

q₁ = s x m x ΔT where m is the mass, s the specific heat of ice ( 2.09 J/gºC ) and ΔT  the change in temperature.

q₂ the fusion enthalpy change   is calculated from the expression:

q₂ = C x ΔT

where C is the specific heat for the phase change , in this case named AH  given in kJ/mol.

We are given all the data needed to calculate q₁, q₂ and qtotal ( q₁ + q₂ )

q₁ = 25.0 g x ( 2.09 J/gºC) x ( 0 - ( -6.5 ºC ) )

q₁ = 339.6 J = 0.339 kJ

q₂ = (25 g/ 18 g/mol) x 6.02 kJ/mol = 1.39 x 6.02 kJ = 8.36 kJ

qtotal = 0.339 kJ + 8.36 kJ = 8.70 kJ

with these calculations, we can now proceed to answer the question:

(a) False AH is theheat capacity for the melting.

(b) True as we determined above

(c) False we only have one phase change, from solid (ice) to liquid

(d) True as calculated above

(e) False as determined in our calculations

Which of the following atoms would have the longest de Broglie wavelength, if all have the same velocity?
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Li

Explanation:

The phenomenon of wave particle duality was well established by Louis deBroglie. The wavelength associated with matter waves was related to its mass and velocity as shown below;

λ= h/mv

Where;

λ= wavelength of matter waves

m= mass of the particle

v= velocity of the particle

This implies that if the velocities of all particles are the same, the wavelength of matter waves will now depend on the mass of the particle. Hence; the wavelength of a matter wave associated with a particle is inversely proportional to the magnitude of the particle's linear momentum. The longest wavelength will then be obtained from the smallest mass of matter. Hence lithium which has the smallest mass will exhibit the longest DeBroglie wavelength

Select the statement(s) that explain(s) the relationship between the arrangement of elements by size and first ionization energy
kow [346]

c. A full s subshell is able to shield a newly filled p subshell from the nucleus, making the first electron in a p subshell easy to remove.

Explanation:

From the given options, a full s-sublevel is able to shield a newly filled p-subshell from the nucleus thereby making the first electron in a p-subshell easy to remove is correct.

What is ionization energy?

Ionization energy is a measure of the readiness of an atom to lose an electron.

First ionization energy is the energy required to remove the most loosely held electron in the gas phase.

The size of an atom/element depends on the number of electrons it contains. The more the electrons, the larger its size.

  • The larger an atom becomes the lesser the ionization energy needed to remove the first electron from its outermost shell.

Electron - electron repulsion occurs when two electrons in the same sub-level repels one another.

Shielding effect is the ability of the inner electrons to protect the outer electrons from the pull of the nuclear charge.

In option C, a s-subshell has a greater shielding effect than the p,d and f sub-shell in that order.

A newly introduced electron in the p-sublevel will be loosely held and easier to remove.

AlekseyPX
I'm certain it's "D"

...because it can't be "A" or "B" because solubility IS a property but to actually determine whether these two substances are the same or different we would need at least two-three properties (like boiling point or specific heat).

and it can't be "C" because the melting point is just simply irrelevant when comparing the solubility of two substances.
