Magnesium on heating separately with aqueousferric chloride and ammonium chloride gives the same gas, X,X is inflammable and reacts with metal to form electrovalent soild ,which on hydrolysis gives the same gas .Predict the gas X. |
|
Answer» Solution :The gas .X. is hydrogen .Magnesium liberates hydrogen on reaction with aqueous ferric chloride `3Mg +2FeCl_(3)+6H_(2)O to 2MgCl_(2)+2Fe(OH)_(3)+3H_(2)` `MG+2NH_(4)CL to MgCl_(2)+2NH_(3)+H_(2)` The ELECTROVALENT solid is magnesium hydride , which gives hydrgen on hydrolysis . `Mg+H_(2) to MgH_(2)` `gH_(2+2H_(2)O to Mg(OH)_(2)+2H_(2)` |

Magnesium loses electrons successively to form Mg^(+),Mg^(2+)andMg^(3+) ions . Which step will have the highest ionisation energy and why ? |
|
Answer» Solution :`UNDERSET("NEUTRAL atom")(Mg)(g) to Mg^(+) +e(I.E_(1) = X_(1))` `(Dbt: e or e^(-))` `underset("Unipositive cation")(Mg^+)to Mg^(2+) +e^(-)(I.E_(2) -X_(2))` `underset("Dipositive cation")(Mg^2+)to Mg^(3+)+e^(-)(I.E_(3) -X_(3))` (i) The third step will have the highest ionization energy. `I.E_3 gtI.E_2 gt I.E_1`. Because from a neutral gaseous atom, the electron removal is easy and less amount of energy is required. But from a dipositive cation, there will be more number of PROTONS than the electrons and there is more forces of ATTRACTION between the nucleus and electron. So the removal of electron in a dipositive cation, becomes highly difficult and more energy is required. |
