Answer:

The possible values of l are 2 and 3

Explanation:

Each electrons have four quantum numbers:

  • n: the principal quantum number, which value matches with the energy level of the electron.
  • l: the secondary quantum number, which value can be from 0 to n-1
  • m: the magnetic number, which value can be from -l to l
  • sp: the spin number which value can be -1/2 or +1/2

In this case, n=4 so the values of l are:

l=0, 1, 2, 3

Now, if:

  • l=0 the value of m is m=0
  • l=1 the values of m are m= -1, 0, 1
  • l=2 the values of m are m= -2, -1, 0, 1, 2
  • l=3 the values of m are m= -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3

Being all that said, l can be either  equal to 2 or 3

Based on the information, what is the balanced chemical equation representing the burning of butane?
kompoz [17]

Answer:

OptionA. 2C4H10 + 13O2 —> 8CO2 + 10H20

Explanation:

Butane burns is air (O2) according to the equation:

C4H10 + O2 —> CO2 + H20

Considering the equation, it is evident that it not balanced. Now let us balance the equation as shown below;

There are a total of 4 carbon atoms on the left and 1 carbon atom on the right. It can be balanced by putting 4 in front of CO2 as shown below:

C4H10 + O2 —> 4CO2 + H20

Next, there are 10 hydrogen atoms on the left and 2 hydrogen atoms on the right. Therefore to balance it, put 5 in front of H2O as shown below:

C4H10 + O2 —> 4CO2 + 5H20

Now, there are a total of 13 oxygen atoms on the right and 2 at the left. To balance it, put 13/2 in front of O2

as shown below

C4H10 + 13/2O2 —> 4CO2 + 5H20

Now we multiply through by 2 clear off the fraction and we obtained:

2C4H10 + 13O2 —> 8CO2 + 10H20
