What is penetration? How is it related to shielding? Use the penetration effect to explain the difference in relative orbital en

Answer: penetration is the ability of an electron in a given orbital to approach the nucleus closely. Shielding refers to the fact that core electrons reduce the degree of nuclear attraction felt by the orbital electrons. Shielding is the opposite of penetration. The most penetrating orbital is the least screening orbital. The order of increasing shielding effect/decreasing penetration is s<p<d<f.

Explanation:

The order of penetrating power is 1s>2s>2p>3s>3p>4s>3d>4p>5s>4d>5p>6s>4f....

Since the 3p orbital is more penetrating than the 3d orbital, it will lie nearer to the nucleus and thus possess lower energy.

What is one property that is different between water and oil? *
Arlecino [84]
Oil is less dense than water, so the difference would be its density. Water is a good solvent, which means It can dissolve other substances.

What is the atom inventory for the following equation after it is properly balanced? ____NaOH + ____CuCl2 Imported Asset ____NaC
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

Reactants: Na = 2, O = 2, H = 2, Cu = 1, Cl = 2;

Products: Na = 2, Cl = 2, Cu = 1, O = 2, H = 2

Explanation:

NaOH + CuCL2 —> NaCl + Cu(OH)2

The balanced equation can be achieved by doing the following:

There are 2 oxygen and 2 hydrogen atom on the right side. This is balanced by putting 2 in front of NaOH as shown below:

2NaOH + CuCL2 —> NaCl + Cu(OH)2

This makes Na to be unbalanced. Now to balance Na, put 2 in front of NaCl as illustrated below

2NaOH + CuCL2 —> 2NaCl + Cu(OH)2

Now the equation is balanced.

Reactants: Na = 2, O = 2, H = 2, Cu = 1, Cl = 2

Products: Na = 2, Cl = 2, Cu = 1, O = 2, H = 2

You would most likely see rolling grasslands. There would be isolated trees and shrubs. Not enough rain falls in the savanna to support forests.

What is the mass of a sample of water that takes 2000 kJ of energy to boil into steam at 373 K. The latent heat of vaporization
zzz [600]

Answer:

\boxed{\text{889 g}}

Explanation:

The formula relating the mass m of a sample and the heat q to vaporize it is

q = mL, where L is the latent heat of vaporization.

\begin{array}{rcl}2000 \times 10^{3} \text{ J} & = & m \times \dfrac{2.25 \times 10^{6} \text{ J}}{\text{1 kg}}\\\\m & = & \dfrac{2000 \times \times 10^{3}\text{ kg}}{2.25 \times 10^{6}}\\ & = & \text{0.889 kg}\\\\ & = & \text{889 g}\\\end{array}\\\text{The mass of water is $\boxed{\textbf{889 g}}$}
