You are spending the summer working for a chemical company. Your boss has asked you to determine where a chlorine ion of effective charge -e would situate itself near a carbon dioxide ion. The carbon dioxide ion is composed of 2 oxygen ions each with an effective charge -2e and a carbon ion with an effective charge +3e. These ions are arranged in a line with the carbon ion sandwiched midway between the two oxygen ions. The distance between each oxygen ion and the carbon ion is 3.0 x 10-11 m. Assuming that the chlorine ion is on a line that is perpendicular to the axis of the carbon dioxide ion and that the line goes through the carbon ion, what is the equilibrium distance for the chlorine ion relative to the carbon ion on this line? For simplicity, you assume that the carbon dioxide ion does not deform in the presence of the chlorine ion. Looking in your trusty physics textbook, you find the charge of the electron is 1.60 x 10-19 C.

Zn(s) + O2(g)arrow_forwardThe first laboratory experiments to produce compounds containing noble gas atoms aroused great excitement, not because the compounds might be useful but because they demonstrated that the noble gases were not completely inert. Since that time, however, important uses have been found for a number of noble gas compounds. For example, xenon difluoride, XeF2, is an excellent fluorinating agent (a substance that adds fluorine atoms to other substances). One reason it is preferred over certain other fluorinating agents is that the products of its fluorinating reactions are easily separated from the gaseous xenon.
