6 0

Bonding MO's have lower energy than antibonding MO's. The bonding MO's lower energy, even lower than its constituent atomic orbitals, accounts for the stability of a molecule in relation to its individual atoms. However, the sum of energy of the MO's must equal the sum of energy of the AO's.

<h3>What is atomic orbital?</h3>

An atomic orbital is a function in atomic theory and quantum mechanics that describes the location and wave-like behavior of an electron in an atom. This formula can be used to calculate the likelihood of locating any atom's electron in any given location surrounding the nucleus. The phrase atomic orbital can also refer to the actual region or place where the electron is projected to be present given the orbital's mathematical form.

Each orbital in an atom is defined by a set of values of the three quantum numbers n, l, and ml, which correspond to the energy, angular momentum, and an angular momentum vector component of the electron, respectively (magnetic quantum number).

Magnesium reacts with hydrochloric acid (HCl) as follows. Mg(s) + 2HCl(aq) --&gt;MgCl(2)+H(2)(g) How many milliliters of hydroge
max2010maxim [7]
We are given the number of moles of solid magnesium supplied for the reaction which is 0.02 moles while hydrochloric acid is supplied in excess thus we can say that the reaction proceeds to completion. Calculation is as follows:

0.020 mol Mg ( 1 mol H2 / 1 mol Mg ) = 0.020 mol H2 gas is produced

To convert the number of moles to volume, we use the conditions at STP of 1 mol of a substance is equal to 22.4 L. Thus,

0.020 mol H2 (22.4 L / 1 mol) (1000 mL / 1 L) = 448 mL

Am i correct if not correct me please
Annette [7]

Answer:

D. Hund's rule

Explanation:

Not sure, but I would go with Hund's since it talks about filing electrons in each orbital before you can pair them up. The reason sulfur has lower ionization is because it has one set of paired electrons which makes the orbital unstable whereas phosphorus has 3 unpaired e's which means it is more stable. Thus it is easier to remove electron from sulfur hence lower ionization energy.

What is the total number of pairs of electrons shared between the carbon atom and the oxygen atom in a molecule of methanal?
valentinak56 [21]
Answer is: between the carbon atom and the oxygen atom in a molecule of methanal there are two (2) <span>pairs of electrons.

Methanal or formaldehyde (H</span>₂C=O)<span> </span><span>is the simplest of the </span><span>aldehydes.
In methanal, bond between carbon and oxygen is double covalent bond (one sigma and one pi bond), which means there are four shared electrons or two pair of electrons.</span>

Give the molecular geometry and number of electron groups for sf4. give the molecular geometry and number of electron groups for
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

5 electron groups, see saw

Explanation:

During the formation of SF4, the sulfur atom usually bonds with each of four fluorine atoms where 8 of valence electrons are used. The four fluorine atoms have 3 lone pairs of electrons in its octet which will further utilize 24 valence electrons. In addition, two electrons are present as a lone pair on the sulfur atom. We can determine sulfur’s hybridization state by counting of the number of regions of electron density on sulphur (the central atom in the molecule). When bonding takes place there is a formation of 4 single bonds to sulfur and it has 1 lone pair. Looking at this, we can say that the number of regions of electron density is 5. The hybridization state is sp3d.

SF4 molecular geometry is seesaw with one pair of valence electrons. The molecule is polar. The equatorial fluorine atoms have 102° bond angles instead of the actual 120° angle. The axial fluorine atom angle is 173° instead of the actual 180° bond angle.

Which particle diagram represents a mixture of three substances
Anni [7]

Following the key in the diagram (see the attached image), the only particle diagram that represents a mixture of three substances is diagram 2.

To simplify it, let us replace the key in the diagram as follows;

  1. atom of one element = A
  2. atom of different element = B

Diagram 1 consists of only AA and AB

Diagram 2 consists of AA, BB, and AB.

Diagram 3 consists of AA and ABA

Diagram 4 consists of AA and BAB

Thus, only diagram 2 has a mixture of 3 substances.
