Answer:
Three hydrogen atoms to form PH₃.
Explanation:
Hello!
In this case, since the elements belonging to the nitrogen family (N, P, As, Sb and Bi) show five valence electrons, because there are five electrons at their outer shell, it is clear that if phosphorous bonds with hydrogen, it is going to require the same amount of oxygen atoms (3) because elements having five valence electrons need 3 bonds in order to attain the octet (5+3=8).
Therefore the compound would be:
Which is phosphine.
Best regards!
Answer:- 3. 
and 
Explanations:- An empirical formula is the simplest whole number ratio of atoms of each element present in the molecule/compound.
For example, the molecular formula of benzene is 
. The ratio of C to H in it is 6:6 that could be simplified to 1:1. So, an empirical formula of benzene is CH.
In the first pair, the ratio of C to H in first molecule is 2:4 that could be simplified to 1:2 and the empirical formula is 
. In second molecule the ratio of C to H is 6:6 and it could be simplified to 1:1. and the empirical formula is CH. Empirical formulas are different for both the molecules of first pair and so it is not the right choice.
In second pair, C to H ratio in first molecule is 1:2, so the empirical formula is . The C to H ratio for second molecule is 1:4, so the empirical formula is 
. Here also, the empirical formulas are not same and hence it is also not the right choice.
In third pair, C to H ratio in first molecule is 1:3, so the empirical formula is . In second molecule the C to H ratio is 2:6 and it is simplified to 1:3. So, the empirical formula for this one is also . Hence. this is the correct choice.
In fourth pair, first molecule empirical formula is CH. Second molecule has 2:4 that is 1:2 mole ratio of C to H and so its empirical formula is . As the empirical formulas are different, it is not the right choice.
So, the only and only correct pair is the third one. 3. and
Answer:
180,000 ants
Explanation:
For this problem we can create the following simple formula to solve this problem...
f(x) = 6x
where the variable x represents the number of ants that a single Anteater needs to eat per day. After a quick online search we can see that a single Anteater eats roughly 30,000 ants per day. If we use this value and plug it into the simple formula we can get the total number of ants 6 anteaters need to eat to survive.
f(x) = 6 * 30,000
f(x) = 180,000
Answer:
A. It is exothermic
Explanation:
Combustion is a chemical reaction in which a substance combines with oxygen present in air to produce carbon (iv) oxide and water as well release heat and light energy.Combustion is an exothermic process.
An exothermic reaction releases energy in the form of heat to the surroundings. The energy required to break bonds in the reactants is less than the energy required to form new bonds in the products in an exothermic reaction.
From the given options;
A. It is exothermic is determinable since the reaction is a combustion reaction
B. The bond making energy is more than 600 kJ is not certain because the mass of the wood being burnt is not given. Also, wood is not composed of a specific element that would be taking part in the reaction, rather it is composed of various substances.
C. It is endothermic. is wrong because combustion of wood is exothermic.
D. The bond breaking energy is more than 600 kJ is not certain because the mass of the wood being burnt is not given. Also, wood is not composed of a specific element that would be taking part in the reaction, rather is composed of many substances.
Explanation:
Electronic configuration of uranium is given below -
1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶3d¹⁰4s²4p⁶4d¹⁰5s²5p⁶4f¹⁴5d¹⁰6s²6p⁶5f³6d¹7s2²
Effective nuclear charge (Z eff) = Atomic number (Z) - Shielding constant (S)
<u>
Value of Shielding constant (S) can be calculated by using slater's rule :
</u>
S = 1 (0.35) + 9 (0.85) + 81 (1.00)
S = 0.35 + 7.65 + 81.00
S = 89
So,
Zeff = Z - S
Zeff = 92 - 89
<u>
Zeff = 3
</u>
Hence, Effective nuclear charge (Zeff) of uranium = <u>3
</u>
5s electron is closest to the nucleus.
