The filling of which orbital is represented by the transition metals in period 4?

2 answers:

8 0

<span>The 4s orbital has a lower energy than the 3d, and so fills next. That fits with the chemistry of potassium and calcium and the entire period. So the answer is 3d</span>

Answer: 3d

Explantion:

1) Period 4 contains the elements with atomic numbers 19 through 36.

2) The elements with atomic numbers 19 (K) and 20 (Ca) fill the orbital 4s.

3) After that, as Aufbau's rule may help you to remember, the energy of the orbitals 3d is lower than the energy of the orbtitals 4p. So, the element 21 (Sc) start fillind the orbital 3d.

There are ten 3d orbitals, so the elements 21 through 30 fill the 3d orbitals.

Those elements, called transition metals are: Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, and Zn.

When the 3d orbitals are full, the next elements in the same period 4, fill the six 4p orbitals.

Answer:

(a) See below

(b) 103.935 °F; 102.235 °F

Explanation:

The equation relating the temperature to time is

$T = T_{0} + \Delta T\left (1 - e^{-t/\tau} \right )$

1. Calculate the thermometer readings after 0.5 min and 1 min

(a) After 0.5 min

$\begin{array}{rcl}T & = & T_{0} + \Delta T\left (1 - e^{-t/\tau} \right )\\ & = & 100 + 10\left (1 - e^{-0.5/1} \right )\\ & = & 100 + 10\left (1 - e^{-0.5} \right )\\ & = & 100 + 10 (1 - 0.6065)\\ & = & 100 + 10(0.3935)\\ & = & 100 + 3.935\\ & = & 103.935\,^{\circ}F\\\end{array}$

(b) After 1 min

$\begin{array}{rcl}T & = & T_{0} + \Delta T\left (1 - e^{-t/\tau} \right )\\ & = & 100 + 10\left (1 - e^{-1/1} \right )\\ & = & 100 + 10\left (1 - e^{-1} \right )\\ & = & 100 + 10 (1 - 0.3679)\\ & = & 100 + 10(0.6321)\\ & = & 100 + 6.321\\ & = & 106.321\,^{\circ}F\\\end{array}$

2. Calculate the thermometer reading after 2.0 min

T₀ =106.321 °F

ΔT = 100 - 106.321 °F = -6.321 °F

t = t - 1, because the cooling starts 1 min late

$\begin{array}{rcl}T & = & T_{0} + \Delta T\left (1 - e^{-(t - 1)/\tau} \right )\\ & = & 106.321 - 6.321\left (1 - e^{-(2 - 1)/1} \right )\\ & = & 106.321 - 6.321\left (1 - e^{-1} \right )\\ & = & 106.321 - 6.321 (1 - 0.3679)\\ & = & 106.321 - 6.321 (0.6321)\\ & = & 106.321 - 3.996\\ & = & 102.325\,^{\circ}F\\\end{array}$

3. Plot the temperature readings as a function of time.

The graphs are shown below.

g Sucrose (C12H22O11), a nonionic solute, dissolves in water (normal freezing/melting point 0.0°C) to form a solution. If some u

DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

15.4 g of sucrose

Explanation:

Formula to be applied for solving these question: colligative property of freezing point depression. → ΔT = Kf . m

ΔT = Freezing T° of pure solvent - Freezing T° of solution

Let's replace data given: 0°C - (-0.56°C) = 1.86 C/m . m

0.56°C / 1.86 m/°C = m → 0.301 mol/kg

m → molality (moles of solute in 1kg of solvent)

Our mass of solvent is not 1kg, it is 150 g. Let's convert it from g to kg, to determine the moles of solute: 150 g. 1kg/1000g = 0.150 kg

0.301 mol/kg . 0.150kg = 0.045 moles.

We determine the mass of sucrose, by the molar mass:

0.045 mol . 342 g/1mol = 15.4 g

Butane C4H10 (g),(Hf = –125.7), combusts in the presence of oxygen to form CO2 (g) (Delta.Hf = –393.5 kJ/mol), and H2O(g) (Delta

shusha [124]

Answer: The enthalpy of combustion, per mole, of butane is -2657.4 kJ

Explanation:

The balanced chemical reaction is,

$2C_4H_{10}(g)+13O_2(g)\rightarrow 8CO_2(g)+10H_2O(g)$

The expression for enthalpy change is,

$\Delta H=[n\times H_f_{products}]-[n\times H_f_{reactants}]$

Putting the values we get :

$\Delta H=[8\times H_f_{CO_2}+10\times H_f_{H_2O}]-[2\times H_f_{C_4H_{10}+13\times H_f_{O_2}}]$

$\Delta H=[(8\times -393.5)+(10\times -241.82)]-[(2\times -125.7)+(13\times 0)]$

$\Delta H=-5314.8kJ$

2 moles of butane releases heat = 5314.8 kJ

1 mole of butane release heat = $\frac{5314.8}{2}\times 1=2657.4kJ$

Thus enthalpy of combustion per mole of butane is -2657.4 kJ

Using the redox reaction below determine which element is oxidized and which is reduced. 4nh3 + 3ca(clo)2 → 2n2 + 6h2o + 3cacl2

lys-0071 [83]

The oxidation number of elements in equation below are,

4NH₃ + 3Ca(ClO)₂ → 2N₂ + 6H₂O + 3CaCl₂

O.N of N in NH₃ = -3
O.N of Ca in Ca(ClO)₂ and CaCl₂ = +2
O.N of N in N₂ = 0
O.N of Cl in Ca(ClO)₂ = +1
O.N of Cl in CaCl₂ = -1

Oxidation:
Oxidation number of Nitrogen is increasing from -3 (NH₃) to 0 (N₂).

Reduction:
Oxidation number of Cl is decreasing from +1 [Ca(ClO)₂] to -1 (CaCl₂).

Result:
<span>N is oxidized and Cl is reduced.</span>
