How many unpaired electrons would you expect on aluminum in aluminum oxide.?
sergeinik [125]

Answer: There are 3 unpaired electrons on aluminium in aluminium oxide.    

Explanation:

Chemical formula of aluminium oxide is Al_{2}O_{3}.

The atomic number of aluminium is 13 and its electronic configuration is 1s^{2}2s^{2}2p^{6}3s^{2}3p^{1}. In order to complete its octet, aluminium will lose or donate 3 electrons to the oxygen atom as it has 3 electrons in excess.

Thus, there are three unpaired electrons on one aluminium atom.

Since, there are two aluminium atoms in Al_{2}O_{3}, so, there will be in total 6 unpaired electrons on two aluminium atoms. Whereas each oxygen atom has deficiency of 2 electrons so, each aluminium atom will donate its excess of electrons to each oxygen atom.

A 0.286-g sample of gas occupies 125 ml at 60. cm of hg and 25°
irga5000 [103]
Using the Equation: PV=nRT
Where P is the pressure 60 cmHg or 600 mmHg or 600/760= 0.789 atm
V is the volume 125 ml or 0.125 L, n is the number of moles, R is a constant 0.082057, and T is temperature 25 °C or 298 K; 
Therefore:
0.789 × 0.125 = n × 0.082057 × 298
 n = 0.0987/24.45 
    = 0.004036 mol
0.004036 mole has a mass of  0.286 g
Hence; 1 mole has a mass of 0.286/0.004036 
  = 70.8 g /mol
Therefore the molar mass of the gas is 71 g/mol (2 sfg)
