The octet rule is a chemical rule that observes that atoms of main group elements combine in such a way that each atom has eight electrons in its valence shell giving it the same electronic configuration as a noble gas. good luck! hope this helps!

The octet rule refers to the tendency of atoms to prefer to have eight electrons in the valence shell. When atoms have fewer than eight electrons, they tend to react and form more stable compounds. When discussing the octet rule, we do not consider d or f electrons. Only the s and p electrons are involved in the octet rule, making it useful for the main group elements (elements not in the transition metal or inner-transition metal blocks); an octet in these atoms corresponds to an electron configurations ending with s2p6.

A volume of 100 mL of 1.00 M HCl solution is titrated with 1.00 M NaOH solution. You added the following quantities of 1.00 M Na

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

a: before equivalence point

b: equivalence point

c: before equivalence point

d: after the eqivalence point

e: before equivalence point

f: after the eqivalence point

Explanation:

Balanced equation of reaction:

NaOH +HCl =NaCl +H2O;

Volume of HCl is fixed and it 100ml and concentration is 1.0M

N1 and N2 normality of HCl and NaOH respectively;

V1 and V2 volume of HCl and NaOH respectively;

we have given molarity but we need normality;

$Normality=molarity \times n-factor$

but in case of NaOH and HCl n-factor is 1 for each.

hence

normality=molarity;

At equivalence point: $N_1V_1=N_2V_2$

Before equivalence point : $N_1V_1>N_2V_2$

After the equivalence point: $N_1V_1$

$N_1V_1=100\times1=100$

case a: 5.00 mL of 1.00 M NaOH

$N_2V_2=5\times1=5$

$N_1V_1>N_2V_2$ hence it is before equivalence point

case b: 100mL of 1.00 M NaOH

$N_2V_2=100\times1=100$

$N_1V_1=N_2V_2$ hence it is equivalence point

case c: 10.0 mL of 1.00 M NaOH

$N_2V_2=10\times1=10$

$N_1V_1>N_2V_2$ hence it is before equivalence point

case d: 150 mL of 1.00 M NaOH

$N_2V_2=150\times1=150$

$N_1V_1$ hence it is after the eqivalence point

case e: 50.0 mL of 1.00 M NaOH

$N_2V_2=50\times1=50$

$N_1V_1>N_2V_2$ hence it is before equivalence point

case f: 200 mL of 1.00 M NaOH

$N_2V_2=200\times1=200$

$N_1V_1$ hence it is after the eqivalence point

A mixture of 454 kg of applesauce at 10 degrees Celsius is heated in a heat exchanger by adding 121300 kJ. Calculate the outlet

stira [4]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

Mass of apple sauce mixture = 454 kg

Heat added (Q) = 121300 kJ

Heat capacity ( $C_{p}$ ) of apple sauce at $32.8^{o}C$ = 4.0177 $kJ/kg^{o}C$

So, Heat given by heat exchanger = heat taken by apple sauce

Q = $mC_{p} \Delta T$

or, Q = $mC_{p} (T_{f} - T_{i})$

Putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

Q = $mC_{p} (T_{f} - T_{i})$

121300 kJ = $454 kg \times 4.0177 kJ/kg^{o}C \times (T_{f} - 10)$

$T_{f}$ = $76.5^{o}C$

Thus, we can conclude that outlet temperature of the apple sauce is $76.5^{o}C$ .

Represent the formation of cations for the following metal atoms using electron dot structures. (a) Al (b) Sr (c) Ba

vagabundo [1.1K]

the formation of cations by using electron dot structures are :

a) Al

Al . losing the three valence electrons makes the Al³⁺

b) Sr :

Sr : losing the two valence electrons makes Sr²⁺

c) Ba

: Ba , losing the two valence electrons makes it Ba²⁺

A Lewis electron dot diagram is a representation of the valence electrons of an atom that employments specks around the image of the element. The number of dots equals the number of valence electrons within the molecule. These dots are arranged to the right and left and over and underneath the symbol, with no more than two dots on a side. Cations are the positive ions shaped by the loss of one or more electrons. The foremost commonly shaped cations of the representative elements are those that include the loss of all of the valence electrons.

How did Henry Moseley revise Mendeleev's periodic table? (Please answer A.S.A.P.)

CaHeK987 [17]

If you give it a good search, the most used answer would probably be as follows,

In 1914 Henry Moseley found a relationship between an element's X-ray wavelength and its atomic number (Z), and therefore rearranged the table by nuclear charge / atomic number rather than atomic weight. Before this discovery, atomic numbers were just sequential numbers based on an element's atomic weight. Moseley's discovery showed that atomic numbers had an experimentally measurable basis.

Hope this helps!
