Answer:

Element X is Arsenic (As)

Explanation:

  • Elements in the periodic table are either metals, non-metals or metalloids.
  • Metals are elements that react by losing electrons to obtain a stable configuration and form cation.
  • Non-metals are those elements that react by gaining electrons to form a stable configuration and form anion.
  • Metalloids are elements in the periodic table that have both metallic and non-metallic properties.
  • Examples of metalloids include Selenium, Arsenic, Boron, etc.
  • Arsenic is a metalloid in period 4 (four energy levels) with five valence electrons.

Based on the bond energies for the reaction below, what is the enthalpy of the reaction?HC≡CH (g) + 5/2 O₂ (g) → 2 CO₂ (g) + H₂O
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

1219.5 kj/mol

Explanation:

To reach this result, you must use the formula:

ΔHºrxn = Σn * (BE reactant) - Σn * (BE product)

ΔHºrxn = [1 * (BE C = C) + 2 * (BE C-H) + 5/2 * (BE O = O)] - [4 * (BE C = O) + 2 * (BE O-H).

The BE values are:

BE C = C: 839 kj / mol

BE C-H: 413 Kj / mol

BE O = O: 495 kj / mol

BE C = O = 799 Kj / mol

BE O-H = 463 kj / mol

Now you must replace the values in the above equation, the result of which will be:

ΔHºrxn = [1 * 839 + 2 * (413) + 5/2 * (495)] - [4 * (799) + 2 * (463) = 1219.5 kj/mol

Give the atomic symbol for an element that does not exist as a molecule or extended structure. that is, an element that exists o
RUDIKE [14]
An element that exist as a discreet atom has only one atom which can stand alone on its own. Example of this is Neon, which is a noble gas. The chemical symbol for neon is Ne.
Elements are able to exist as discreet atom because they are chemical stable and inert.

Please help me double-check my answer: Calculate the molarity of an aqueous solution that contains 36.5g KMnO4 and has a total v
Helen [10]

Answer:

The answer to your question is Molarity = 0.6158, I got the same answer as you.

Explanation:

Data

Molarity = ?

Mass of KMnO₄ = 36.5 g

Total volume = 375 ml

Process

1.- Calculate the Molar mass of KMnO₄

KMnO₄ = (1 x 39.10) + (54.94 x 1) + (16 x 4)

            = 39.10 + 54.94 + 64

            = 158.04 g

2.- Calculate the moles of KMnO₄

                158.04 g of KMnO₄ ------------------- 1 mol

                  36.5 g of KMnO₄ ---------------------  x

                   x = (36.5 x 1) / 158.04

                   x = 0.231 mol

3.- Convert the volume to liters

                  1000 ml -------------------- 1 L

                    375 ml --------------------- x

                     x = (375 x 1)/1000

                    x = 0.375 L

4.- Calculate the Molarity

Molarity = moles / volume

-Substitution

Molarity = 0.231 moles / 0.375 L

Result

Molarity = 0.6158

In the electrochemical cell using the redox reaction below, the anode half reaction is ________. Sn4+ (aq) + Fe (s) → Sn2+ (aq)
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

The anode half reaction is : Fe(s)\rightarrow Fe^{2+}(aq.)+2e^{-}

Explanation:

In electrochemical cell, oxidation occurs in anode and reduction occurs in cathode.

In oxidation, electrons are being released by a species. In reduction, electrons are being consumed by a species.

We can split the given cell reaction into two half-cell reaction such as-

Oxidation (anode): Fe(s)\rightarrow Fe^{2+}(aq.)+2e^{-}

Reduction (cathode): Sn^{4+}(aq.)+2e^{-}\rightarrow Sn^{2+}(aq.)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

overall: Fe(s)+Sn^{4+}(aq.)\rightarrow Fe^{2+}(aq.)+Sn^{2+}(aq.)

So the anode half reaction is : Fe(s)\rightarrow Fe^{2+}(aq.)+2e^{-}
