The highest energy occupied molecular orbital in the C-C bond of the C₂ molecule is 2pπ orbitals.

<h3>What is Molecular Orbital Theory?</h3>

According to this theory,

  • Molecular orbitals are formed by intermixing of atomic orbitals of two or more atoms having comparable energies
  • The number of molecular orbitals formed is equal to the number of atomic orbitals combined.
  • The shape of molecular orbitals formed depends on the type of atomic orbitals combined
  • Only atomic orbitals having comparable energies and the same orientation can intermix
  • Bonding M.O. is formed by the additive effect of atomic orbitals and thus, has lower energy and high stability.
  • Antibonding M.O. is formed by the subtractive effect of atomic orbitals and thus, has higher energy and low stability.
  • Bonding M.O. is represented by \sigma, \pi, \delta while Antibonding M.O. is represented by \sigma^*, \pi^*, \delta^*\\

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

What are two things in nature that solar energy powers?
adell [148]

Answer: light and heat

Explanation:Our sun is the source of all life on Earth, and solar energy is useful to us in many different ways. The sun creates two main types of energy - light and heat - that we can harness for many activities ranging from photosynthesis in plants to creating electricity with photovoltaic (PV) cells to heating water and food.

What will a balloon do to a cloth if its negatively charged
masya89 [10]

Answer:

This involves negatively charged particles (electrons) jumping to positively charged objects. When you rub the balloons against the fabric they become negatively charged. They take some of the electrons from the fabric and leave them positively charged.

Explanation:

Negative charges attract to positive charges. If a balloon is not rubbed with the wool cloth, it has an equal amount of negative to positive charges, so it will attract to a rubbed balloon. When both balloons are rubbed with the wool cloth, the both receive negative charges, so they will repel each other.

1) Ions are formed between positive or negative charge.
RSB [31]

Answer:

1. No 1 looks like a statement and not a question.

2.Ionic compounds are usually formed from the transfer of electrons from metals to Non metals. All others are Ionic compounds except HCl(Its a covalent compound).

3. The Formula would be K2S. Exchange of Radicals takes place. Sulphur has a -2 charge and potassium has a +1 charge. when they both exchange radicals... The compound is K2S.

4.Group 1 elements have only 1 electron in their outermost shell.

5. its charge will be +1 because it loses the 1 electron in its outermost shell.

6.Group 2 elements have 2electrons in their Valence shell.

7.Already answered. same as No 5.

8. Group 16;Also known as group 6. They have only 6 electrons in their outermost shell.

9.When they want to become stable... they acquire 2electrons to complete their octet... so they possess a -2 charge by forming an ion.

10. i)They form ions when Dissolve in solutions

ii) They are hard and brittle

iii) They have high boiling points
