Iron having Z=26 with electronic configuration as [Ar]3d^64s^2 has 6 electrons in the 3d shell wherein 5 electrons are aligned parallely and 1 electron  as antiparallel.

Fe^3^+ having electronic configuration as [Ag]3d^5 has 5 electrons, all aligned in the same direction.

Iron, when kept in external magnetic field, the magnetic domains of the atom get aligned in one direction that means it becomes parallel and they remain parallel even after removing the magnetic field therefore, it is considered as ferromagnetic.

For a given reaction, ΔS = +106 J/mol ⋅ K, and the reaction is spontaneous at temperatures above the crossover temperature, 446
solniwko [45]

Answer:  47.276 kJ/mol

Explanation:

According to Gibb's equation:

\Delta G=\Delta H-T\Delta S

\Delta G = Gibbs free energy  

\Delta H = enthalpy change

\Delta S = entropy change  = +106 J/mol

T = temperature in Kelvin  = 446 K

\Delta G= +ve, reaction is non spontaneous

\Delta G= -ve, reaction is spontaneous

\Delta G= 0, reaction is in equilibrium

\Delta H=T\Delta S

\Delta H=T\Delta S

\Delta H=446K\times +106J/Kmol=47276J/mol=47.276kJ/mol   (1kJ=1000J)

Thus the value of ΔH = 47.276 kJ/mol, assuming that ΔH and ΔS do not vary with temperature.

How far does light travel in 3.0 days
MArishka [77]

Answer:

d=7.77\times 10^{13}\ m

Explanation:

We know that the speed of light is equal to 3\times 10^8\ m/s

We need to find how far the light travel in 3 days.

Speed of an object is equal to distance covered divided by time taken.

Also, 1 day = 86400 s

3 days = 259200 s

So,

d=vt

d=3\times 10^8\times 259200\\\\d=7.77\times 10^{13}\ m

So, the light will travel 7.77\times 10^{13}\ m in 3 days.

HELP PLEASE!!! FIRST PERSON TO ANSWER GETS 90 POINTS AND MARKED BRAINLIEST!
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

MgO has a highest melting point

C5Br has lowesst

Explanation:

It takes a lot of energy to overcome the strong electrostatic forces of attraction between oppositely charged ions, so ionic compounds have high melting and boiling points. ... Magnesium oxide is made from ions with two charges (Mg 2+ and O 2-) and so has a much higher melting point of 2852°C.

natulia [17]

Answer:

1.52V

Explanation:

Oxidation half equation:

2Al(s)−→2Al^3+(aq) + 6e

Reduction half equation

3Sn2^+(aq) + 6e−→3Sn(s)

E°cell= E°cathode - E°anode

E°cathode= −0.140 V

E°anode= −1.66 V

E°cell=-0.140-(-1.66)

E°cell= 1.52V
