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 $\sigma^*, \pi^*, \delta^*\\$

2-bromo-3,4-dimethylpentane is combined with t-butoxide. The product of this reaction is.

Andrej [43]

2-bromo-3,4-dimethylpentane is combined with t-butoxide. The product of this reaction is 3,4 dimethyl - 1- pentene.

The reaction of 2-bromo-3,4-dimethylpentane is combined with t-butoxide forms 2 alkene in the elimination reaction due to steric hindrance. The least stable alkene 3,4 dimethyl - 1- pentene is easy to make. the t-butoxide is (CH₃)₃CO⁻. The reaction involves in this reaction is E2 elimination reaction. This reaction involves the one step reaction. The product will also form that is 3,4 dimethyl - 2 - pentene. so the reaction involve Elimination reaction and the product due to steric hindrance is 3,4 dimethyl - 1- pentene

Thus, 2-bromo-3,4-dimethylpentane is combined with t-butoxide. The product of this reaction is 3,4 dimethyl - 1- pentene.

What’s the distance from the nucleus of an atom to its theoretical outer edge of electron orbits

ollegr [7]

Answer:

The range of atoms = (30-300 pm) depending upon the element

Explanation:

The Atomic radii of the atom is the distance from the center of the circle to the outermost orbital.

The center of the circle is the nucleus and the radii is the outermost boundary.

The actual size of the atom is decided on the basis of the Zeff . Also known as effective nuclear charge.

Zeff: It is the net positive charge felt by the outermost electron by the nucleus.

The value of Zeff depends upon the shielding constant. More the shielding less will be the Zeff . Hence the size of the atom increases.

Due to shielding the outermost electrons feel less pull of nucleus.

The greater the Zeff , the smaller the radius of the atom.

The formula used to calculate the atomic mass is :

$r_{n}=\frac{52.9n^{2}}{Z}$ pm

Here "pm"= picometers

$1 pm = 10^{-12}m$

The size of the smallest atom H-atom = 120 pm

The range of atoms = (30-300 pm)

If the distance between a point charge and a neutral atom and is multiplied by a factor of 5, by what factor does the force on t

dexar [7]

Given :

The distance between a point charge and a neutral atom and is multiplied by a factor of 5.

To Find :

By what factor does the force on the neutral atom by the point charge change.

Solution :

We know, electrostatic force between two object is directly proportional to product of charge and inversely proportional to distance between them.

Now, charge in neutral atom is 0 C.

So, the electrostatic force between two of them is also 0 N.

Therefore, by changing distance between the charge the forces did no change ( it remains zero).
