Rb reacts with O in a mole ratio of 2 to 1, forming the ionic compound Rb2O. Which of the following elements will react with O in a mole ratio of 2 to 1, forming an ionic compound, and why? A S, because it is in the same group as O. B Cs, because it is in the same group as Rb. C Sr, because it is in the same period as Rb. D Br, because the atomic mass of Br is similar to that of Rb.

B Cs, because it is in the same group as Rb. Cs and Rb have the same number of valence electrons because they are in the same group in the periodic table. Both of these elements can transfer one electron to a nonmetal when forming ionic compounds.

The figure presents a graph of a mass spectrum with six vertical lines. The horizontal axis is labeled Atomic Mass, in a m u, and the numbers 152 through 162, in increments of 1, are indicated. The vertical axis is labeled Relative Abundance, and no values are indicated. The six vertical lines from left to right are as follows. Note all values are approximate.

The second line begins on the horizontal axis at 155 a m u, and extends halfway up the vertical axis. The third line begins on the horizontal axis at 156 a m u, and extends slightly more than halfway up the vertical axis. The fourth line begins on the horizontal axis at 157 a m u, and extends halfway up the vertical axis, but slightly more than the second line. The fifth line begins on the horizontal axis at 158 a m u, and extends high up the vertical axis. The sixth line begins on the horizontal axis at 160 a m u, and extends high up the vertical axis, but less than the fifth line. The mass spectrum represented above is most consistent with which of the following elements? A Eu B Gd C Tb D Dy

B Gd The average atomic mass of Tb is close to 159amu. The relative abundance and masses of the isotopes shown in the mass spectrum predict an average atomic mass close to 157amu, not 159amu.

Ba2+(aq)+SO42−(aq)→BaSO4(s) A student obtains a 10.0g sample of a white powder labeled as BaCl2. After completely dissolving the powder in 50.0mL of distilled water, the student adds excess Na2SO4(s), which causes a precipitate of BaSO4(s) to form, as represented by the equation above. The student filters the BaSO4(s), rinses it, and dries it until its mass is constant. Which of the following scientific questions could best be answered based on the results of the experiment? A Is the Na2SO4(s) used in the experiment pure? B Is the BaCl2(s) used in the experiment pure? C What is the molar solubility of BaCl2 in water? D What is the molar solubility of BaSO4 in water?

B Is the BaCl2(s) used in the experiment pure? The results cannot be used to answer the question. However, the calculated number of moles of Ba in the precipitate can be compared with the expected number of moles of Ba in 10.0g of BaCl2. The presence of fewer moles of Ba in the precipitate would imply that the BaCl2 was not pure.

The figure presents a photoelectron spectrum. The horizontal axis is labeled Binding Energy, in megajoules per mole, and the numbers 7 through 0, in increments of 1, are indicated from left to right. The vertical axis is labeled Relative Number of Electrons and no values are indicated. The line begins on the vertical axis and moves horizontally to the right. It reaches a peak at 5.5 megajoules per mole which is labeled X. The line moves back down, and then moves horizontally to the right from approximately 5 to 1 megajoules per mole. The line reaches another, shorter, peak at 0.5 megajoules per mole, which is labeled Y. Peak Y is half as tall as peak X. The complete photoelectron spectrum of an element is given above. Which labeled peak corresponds to the 1s electrons and why? A Peak X, because 1s electrons are the easiest to remove from the atom. B Peak X, because 1s electrons have the strongest attractions to the nucleus. C Peak Y, because electrons in the 1s sublevel are the farthest from the nucleus. D Peak Y, because there are fewer electrons in an s sublevel than in a p sublevel.

B Peak X, because 1s electrons have the strongest attractions to the nucleus. Greater binding energies correlate to stronger attractions to the nucleus.

Element N P As Sb Bi Atomic Radius (picometers) 65 100 115 145 160 The atomic radii of the elements in the nitrogen group in the periodic table are given in the table above. Which of the following best helps explain the trend of increasing atomic radius from N to Bi? A The number of particles in the nucleus of the atom increases. B The number of electrons in the outermost shell of the atom increases. C The attractive force between the valence electrons and the nuclei of the atoms decreases. D The repulsive force between the valence electrons and the electrons in the inner shells decreases.

C The attractive force between the valence electrons and the nuclei of the atoms decreases. The nucleus occupies only a tiny fraction of the volume of an atom and thus does not affect atomic radius. However, going down the group, the net attraction of the valence electrons for the nucleus decreases; thus the valence electrons maintain a greater average distance from the nucleus.

Which of the following best helps explain why an atom of Rb gas more easily loses an electron in a chemical reaction than an atom of Li gas? A Rb has a higher electronegativity than Li has. B The Rb atom has a greater number of valence electrons than the Li atom has. C The nucleus of the Rb atom has a greater number of protons and neutrons than the nucleus of the Li atom has. D In the Rb atom the valence electron is farther from its nucleus than the valence electron of Li is from its nucleus.

D In the Rb atom the valence electron is farther from its nucleus than the valence electron of Li is from its nucleus. Because the Rb electron is farther from its nucleus, there is a weaker attraction and it is easier to lose.

A 1.0mol sample of which of the following compounds has the greatest mass? A NO B NO2 C N2O D N2O5

D N2O5 The mass of 1.0mol of NO is less than the mass of 1.0mol of N2O5 because it has fewer N and O atoms and thus a smaller molar mass.
