Which does not apply to dihydroxyacetone?

1 answer:

5 0

Answer: C. Chiral

Explanation: In chemistry, a molecule or ion is called chiral if it cannot be superposed on its mirror image by any combination of rotations, translations, and some conformational changes. This geometric property is called chirality.

Determine the volume of water to be added to the nitric acid solution at a concentration of 8.61 mol / L to prepare 500 mL of th

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

398 mL

Explanation:

Using the equation for molarity,

C₁V₁ = C₂V₂ where C₁ = concentration before adding water = 8.61 mol/L and V₁ = volume before adding water, C₂ = concentration after adding water = 1.75 mol/L and V₂ = volume after adding water = 500 mL = 0.5 L

V₂ = V₁ + V' where V' = volume of water added.

So, From C₁V₁ = C₂V₂

V₁ = C₂V₂/C₁

= 1.75 mol/L × 0.5 L ÷ 8.61 mol/L

= 0.875 mol/8.61 mol/L

= 0.102 L

So, V₂ = V₁ + V'

0.5 L = 0.102 L + V'

V' = 0.5 L - 0.102 L

= 0.398 L

= 398 mL

So, we need to add 398 mL of water to the nitric solution.

Many monatomic ions are found in seawater, including the ions formed from the following list of elements. Write the Lewis symbol

77julia77 [94]

Answer:

The Lewis structures are in image attached.

Explanation:

Lewis symbol is a representation of an element symbol along with its valence electrons around it in the form of dot(s).

Mono-atomic ions formed from the following :

(a) Cl

Chlorine's atomic number is 17 in which only 7 electrons are present in its valence shell .So in order to gain noble gas stability it will gain 1 electron to completes its octet

$Cl=1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^5$

$Cl^-=1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^6$

(b) Na

Sodium's atomic number is 11 in which only 1 electrons are present in its valence shell .So in order to gain noble gas stability it will loose 1 electron to completes its octet. In the Lewis symbol no dot shown as sodium has lost its 1 electron.

$Na=1s^22s^23p^63s^1$

$Na^+=1s^22s^23p^63s^0$

(c) Mg

Magnesium's atomic number is 12 in which only 2 electrons are present in its valence shell .So, in order to gain noble gas stability it will loose 2 electrons to completes its octet.

In the Lewis symbol no dot shown as magnesium has lost its 2 electrons.

$Mg=1s^22s^23p^63s^2$

$Mg^{2+}=1s^22s^23p^63s^0$

(d)Ca

Calcium's atomic number is 20 in which only 2 electrons are present in its valence shell .So, in order to gain noble gas stability it will loose 2 electron to completes its octet.

In the Lewis symbol no dot shown as calcium has lost its 2 electron.

$Ca= 1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^2$

$Ca^{2+}=1s^22s^23p^6^23p^64s^0$

(e) K

Potassium's atomic number is 19 in which only 1 electrons are present in its valence shell .So, in order to gain noble gas stability it will loose 1 electron to completes its octet.

In the Lewis symbol no dot shown as calcium has lost its 1 electron.

$K= 1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^1$

$K^{+}=1s^22s^23p^6^23p^64s^0$

(f) Br

Bromine's atomic number is 35 in which only 7 electrons are present in its valence shell .So in order to gain noble gas stability it will gain 1 electron to completes its octet

$Br=1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^63d^{10}4s^24p^5$

$Br^-= 1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^63d^{10}4s^24p^6$

(g) Sr

Strontium's atomic number is 38 in which only 2 electrons are present in its valence shell .So, in order to gain noble gas stability it will loose 2 electron to completes its octet.

In the Lewis symbol no dot shown as calcium has lost its 2 electron.

$Sr=1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^63d^{10}4s^24p^65s^2$

$Sr^{2+}=1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^63d^{10}4s^24p^65s^0$

(h) F

Florine's atomic number is 7 in which only 7 electrons are present in its valence shell .So in order to gain noble gas stability it will gain 1 electron to completes its octet.

$F=1s^22s^22p^5$

$F^-=1s^22s^22p^6$

What must happen to uranium before it can be used as a fuel source?

WITCHER [35]

Answer: Uranium enrichment. Uranium is used to fuel nuclear reactors; however, uranium must be enriched before it can be used as fuel. Enriching uranium increases the amount of uranium-235 (U235) that can sustain the nuclear reaction needed to release energy and produce electricity at a nuclear power plant.
