5. What distinguishes the noble gases from other elements in the main group?
How does this contribute to the tendency for the various elements to react
with each other?
Answer:
Noble gases are the least reactive of all known elements. Their outer energy levels are full because they each have eight valence electrons. ... As a result, noble gases cannot become more stable by reacting with other elements and gaining or losing valence electrons.
Explanation:
Noble gases have complete valence shells so they do not participate in the reactions while the other elements in the main group have incomplete valence shells so they participate in the reaction to complete it.
What are noble gases?Noble gases can be described as the six elements that belong to the 18th group of the modern periodic table. The elements of group 18 are Helium, Neon, Argon, Krypton, Xenon, and Radon.
Under normal temperature and pressure conditions, all noble gases exist in the gaseous state and exhibit low chemical reactivity hence they are also referred to as inert gas. All noble gases possess stable electronic configurations because their valence shell is fully filled.
Noble gases are generally found as mono-atomic gases. The general electronic configuration group 18 elements can be written as ‘ns²np⁶’ where n is the principal quantum number.
Therefore, the reactivity of the noble gases can be distinguished from other elements in the main group.

Di- Ethyl zinc is a chemical used in the library to protect books from worms, its composition is 53% Zinc, 38.9% Carbon, and 8.1% Hydrogen (At mass of Zn=65.4, C=12, H=1). Find the empirical formula of a compound
Answer:
ZnC4H10
Explanation:
The empirical formula of a compound refers to the formula that gives the simplest whole number ratio of each atoms of the elements in the compound.
The empirical formula is calculated thus:
The given percentages in the question represent the mass in grams of each element in the compound.
Zinc= 53%, C= 38.9%, H= 8.1% which represents 53g, 38.9g and 8.1g of each element respectively.
Molar Mass of Zn= 65.4 g/mol
Molar Mass of C= 12 g/mol
Molar Mass of H= 1 g/mol
Step 1: Divide the mass of each element by the molar mass given to convert to moles:
Zn= 53/65.4 = 0.81moles
C= 38.9/12 = 3.24moles
H= 8.1/1 = 8.1moles
Step 2: Divide each mole value by the smallest number of moles calculated, which is 0.81moles:
Zn= 0.81/0.81 = 1
C= 3.24/0.81 = 4
H= 8.1/0.81= 10
This is the mole ratio represented in the subscript of each element in the empirical formula:
That is, Zn (1) C (4) H (10)
Empirical formula= ZnC4H10

which of the following flouride has the highest lattice energy a)NaF b)KF c)CsF d)LiF
Answer:
The correct option is;
d) LiF
Explanation:
The Lattice energy of ionic compounds can be calculated using the modified Coulomb's law as follows;
[tex]U = \dfrac{k' \cdot Q_1\cdot Q_2}{r_0}[/tex]
Where;
Q₁ and Q₂ = The ionic charges
k' = A constant depending on the ionic and valence configuration
r₀ = The distance between the two nucleus
Given the four compounds each of the metallic ions are of the same group (group one) have the same (only one) valence electron, and are combined to the same ion (fluoride ion) such that Q₂, is the same for all compounds, the factor that will influence the lattice energy more will be the r₀
The sizes of the atoms Li, Na, K and Cs increases as arranged as such Li has the least r₀, and therefore LiF the least lattice energy
From chemistry test online, we have;
The lattice energy of LiF = -1045 kJ/mole
The lattice energy of NaF = -924 kJ/mole
The lattice energy of KF = -822 kJ/mole
The lattice energy of CsF = -737 kJ/mole.

Why are ionic crystals soluble in water?
A. The covalent bonds in the ionic crystal can easily reshape to bond with the water molecules, allowing it to dissolve.
B. The water slides the layers of the ionic crystal lattice so that positive charges line up with positive charges. They repel
each other and break the crystal apart.
C. Partial charges in water molecules attract the charges in the atoms of the ionic crystal, pulling the atoms off the crystal.
D. They are not. The positive and negative charges in the ionic lattice are stronger than the partial charges in the water.
Answer:
C. Partial charges in water molecules attract the charges in the atoms of the ionic crystal, pulling the atoms off the crystal.
Explanation:
Water consists of partial positive and hydrogen ions and partial negative oxygen ions. The ionic crystals also dissociate into ions when in water.These partial charges and ability of ionic compounds to dissociate in water are the main reason why ionic crystals dissolve in water.
The partial charges in the water molecules form a strong attraction towards the charges in the atoms of ionic crystals. This then pulls the atoms from the crystals and ends up in the dissolution of the ionic crystals.
Write down the dissolution equation for nickel(II) perchlorate dissolving in water. (Perchlorate is a polyatomic ion with the formula ClO41-.) If four moles of the ionic compound are dissolved, then how many moles of the ANION are present in the solution?
Answer:
Ni(ClO₄)₂(aq) ⇒ Ni²⁺(aq) + 2 ClO₄⁻(aq)
8 mol ClO₄⁻
Explanation:
Let's consider the dissolution equation for nickel(II) perchlorate dissolving in water.
Ni(ClO₄)₂(aq) ⇒ Ni²⁺(aq) + 2 ClO₄⁻(aq)
The molar ratio of Ni(ClO₄)₂ to ClO₄⁻ is 1:2. If 4 moles of Ni(ClO₄)₂ are dissolved, the moles of ClO₄⁻ formed are:
4 mol Ni(ClO₄)₂ × (2 mol ClO₄⁻/ 1 mol Ni(ClO₄)₂) = 8 mol ClO₄⁻

The primary function of a scuba regulator is to: Reduce high-pressure gas in the scuba cylinder to a more breathable intermediate pressure. Reduce high-pressure gas in the scuba cylinder to ambient (surrounding) pressure. Provide a diver with a continuous flow of oxygenated air. None of the above.
Answer:
Reduce high-pressure gas in the scuba cylinder to ambient (surrounding) pressure.
Explanation:
The primary function of a scuba regulator would be to reduce high-pressure gas in the scuba cylinder to ambient pressure.
A scuba regulator is a structure found attached to the scuba cylinder usually carried by scuba divers. The structure regulates the pressure of the breathing gas in the cylinder to a safe level before the gas becomes available for the breathing process of divers.
Usually, the gas in a scuba cylinder is at a high level. Hence, what the regulator does is to bring it down to a level that would be safe for the breathing of the diver.

What wavelength measures
A. Depth
B. Distance
C. Energy
D. Speed
E. Time
F. Volume
Answer:
Distance.
Explanation:
Wavelength (λ) can be defined as the distance between two successive crest or trough of a wave.
From the above definition, wavelength (λ) simply measures distance.
This can further be explained by obtaining the unit of measurement for wavelength (λ).
This can be illustrated below:
Wavelength is related velocity and frequency according to the following equation:
Velocity (v) = wavelength (λ) x frequency (f)
v = λf
λ = v/f
Velocity is measured in ms¯¹
Frequency is measured in hertz, Hz (s¯¹)
λ = v/f
λ = ms¯¹ / s¯¹
λ = m
We can see that wavelength is measured in metre (m) which is the same unit for measuring distance.
Therefore, wavelength measures distance.
