please help! I have an exam tomorrow, How do valence electrons affect how elements behave?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Hi, valence electrons are the number of electrons present in the outermost shells of atoms of elements, they affect how sharing or transfer of electrons takes place when the atoms go into any reaction.

they also determine the oxidation state of the atom.

for example, hydrogen has one electron in its outermost shell. therefore in any reactions it tends to loose that electron or gain one more to become stable.

the reason why elements go into reactions is to become stable (to have a complete duplet or octet structure).

As you know, each shells aside from the first has maximum of 8 electrons. so for a element like chlorine which have 7 electrons in the valence shell will gain one electrons in reactions to become stable(have a complete octet structure)

valence electrons also classifies elements( metal or non-metal)

if an element have 1, 2 or 3 valence electron(s), it is likely to be a metal

if an element have 4 or 5, it can be a non-metal or a metalliod (semiconductor)

if an element have 6 or 7, it is likely to be a non-metal

if an element have 8, it is a noble/inert gas

this also explains why noble gases do not react since they already have a duplet structure, they do not need to go into reaction.

good lucks on your exams.

Answer 2

Answer:

The number of electrons in an atom's outermost valence shell governs its chemical properties. ... This tendency is called the octet rule, because the atoms have eight valence electrons. METALS. The most reactive metallic elements are metals from Group 1 (e.g., Na or K ) or Group 2 (e.g., Mg or Ca )

Answer: A

Explanation:

A mixture of PCl5(g), PCl3(g), and Cl2(g) is in a 1.00 L reaction vessel. The total pressure of the reaction system is 1.40 atm at equilibrium. Then the volume of the reaction vessel is reduced from 1.00 L to 0.50 L and equilibrium is re-established at constant temperature. What is the total pressure of the system at this point?

Answers

Answer:

The total pressure immediately after the volume reduction is 2.8 atmospheres

Explanation:

The question parameters are as follows;

The initial volume of the reaction vessel, V₁ = 1.00 L

The initial pressure of the reaction system, P₁ = 1.40 atm

The final volume of the reaction system, V₂ = 0.50 L

With the assumption that the gas mixture behaves as an ideal gas, and the temperature is constant, by Boyle's law we have;

P₁·V₁ = P₂·V₂

Where;

P₁ = The initial pressure in the reaction vessel

V₁ = The initial volume in the reaction vessel

P₂ = The total final pressure in the reaction vessel after the reduction in the vessel volume

V₂ = The final volume in the reaction vessel

∴ P₂ = P₁·V₁/V₂

From which we have;

P₂ = 1.40 atm × 1.00 L/(0.50 L) = 2.8 atm

The total final pressure in the reaction vessel, P₂ = 2.8 atm.

how many moles of sodium will react with water to produce 2.0 mol of hydrogen in the following reaction?
2Na(s) + 2H20(1) - 2NaOH(aq) + H2(g)

Answers

Answer: 4.0 moles of sodium will react with water to produce 2.0 mol of hydrogen

Explanation:

The balanced chemical equation is:

[tex]2Na(s)+2H_2O(l)\rightarrow 2NaOH(aq)+H_2(g)[/tex]  

According to stoichiometry :

1 mole of [tex]H_2[/tex] is produced by = 2 moles of [tex]Na[/tex]

Thus 2.0 moles of [tex]H_2[/tex] are produced by =[tex]\frac{2}{1}\times 2.0=4.0moles[/tex]  of [tex]Na[/tex]

Thus 4.0 moles of sodium will react with water to produce 2.0 mol of hydrogen

It has something to do with boyle’s/charle’s/G-L/Combined Gas Laws

I’m super lost and I’ve been working on this for nearly 2 hours!

Answers

Answer:

See Explanations

Explanation:

The Empirical Gas Laws include ...

Boyles Law => P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

Charles Law => T₁/V₁ = T₂/V₂

Gay-Lussac's Law => P₁/T₁= P₂/T₂

Avogadro's Law => V₁/n₁ = V₂/n₂

Combined Gas Law => P₁V₁/T₁ = P₂V₂/T₂

Ideal Gas Law => PV = nRT; R = 0.08206 L·Atm/mol·K

One only needs to learn the 'Combined Gas Law' in that it embodies all of the gas law problems.

Start with a simple table for P, V & T and enter given data. If a variable is not given, assume it is constant. Set up P₁V₁/n₁T₁ = P₂V₂/n₂T₂ and substitute given data. Solve for unknown.

Your Problems:

1. P₁ = 1 Atm        P₂ = 3 Atm

  V₁ = 300ml      V₂ = ?

  T₁ = Constant  T₂ = T₁

   n₁ = Constant  n₂ = n₁

P₁V₁/n₁T₁ = P₂V₂/n₂T₂  

=> (1Atm)(300ml)/(Constant)(Constant) = (3Atm)(V₂)/(Constant)(Constant)

=> (1Atm)(300ml) = (3Atm)V₂

=> V₂ = (1Atm)(300ml)/(3Atm) = 100ml

2. P₁ = 1 Atm        P₂ = ?

   V₁ = Constant  V₂ = V₁

   T₁ = 273K         T₂ = 82K

   n₁ = Constant  n₂ = n₁

P₁V₁/n₁T₁ = P₂V₂/n₂T₂

=> (1Atm)(Constant)/(273K)(Constant) = (P₂)(Constant)/(82K)(Constant)

=> (1Atm)/(273K) = (P₂)/(82K)

=> P₂ = (1Atm)(82K)/(273K)

=> P₂ = 0.3 Atm (1 sig-fig)

3. P₁ = 101.25kPa     P₂ = 506kPa

   V₁ = 5 Liters         V₂ = ?

   T₁ = Constant       T₂ = T₁

   n₁ = Constant  n₂ = n₁

P₁V₁/n₁T₁ = P₂V₂/n₂T₂

=> (101.25kPa)(5L)/(Constant)(Constant) = (506kPa)(V₂)/(Constant)(Constant)

=> (101.25kPa)(5L) =  (506kPa)(V₂)

=> V₂ = (101.25kPa)(5L)/(506kPa)

=> V₂ = 1.00 Liter

4. P₁ = Constant       P₂ = P₁

   V₁ = 3.2 Liters      V₂ = ?

   T₁ = 273°C + 273 = 546K       T₂ = 400°C + 273 =673K*

   n₁ = Constant  n₂ = n₁

*Note => be sure to convert all temps to Kelvin when working empirical gas law problems. K = °C + 273

P₁V₁/n₁T₁ = P₂V₂/n₂T₂

=> (Constant)(3.2L)/(Constant)(546K) = (Constant)(V₂)/(Constant)(673K)

=> (3.2L)/(546K) = (V₂)/(673K)

=> V₂ = (3.2L)(673K)/(546K)

=> V₂ = 3.944 Liters ≅ 3.9 Liters (2 sig-figs)

If 10.0g of powdered iron is heated with 10.0g of sulfur in an open crucible, what is the mass of iron (II) sulfide that is formed? What mass of excess reactant is leftover? The reaction is as follows: Fe+S8–> FeS

Answers

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

                     8Fe        +        S₈                =>        8FeS

Given:            10g                  10g

moles      10g/56g/mol     10g/256g/mol

                = 0.179mol Fe   = 0.039mol S₈

Reduce => divide mole values by respective coefficients; smaller value is Limiting Reactant.

                 0.179/8 = 0.022      0.039/1 = 0.039  

       => Fe is limiting reactant

                       8Fe        +               S₈                   =>         8FeS    

Given:     10g/56g/mol          10g/256g/mol

               = 0.179mol              = 0.039 mol                  0.179mol FeS produced

                                          1/8(0.179)mol S₈ used        (coefficients are equal,

                                          = 0.022 mol S₈ used       => moles Fe = moles FeS)

                                         = (0.039 - 0.022)mol S₈     = 0.179mol FeS

                                         remains in excess              =(0.179mol)(88g/mol)

                                         = 0.0166 mol S₈ (excess)  = 15.8 g FeS  

                                         = (0.0166mol)(256g/mol)           (Theoretical Yield)

                                         = 4.26g S₈ in excess
