How do the number of electrons in an energy level affect bond formation?

Chemistry

Concept:

When an atom has incomplete number of electron in its outermost orbit then it has great tendency to react with another atom which satisfies their octate either by sharing or by transferring their electrons. The involved electrons are called valence electrons. These electrons will effect the energy level because of the transition of these electrons from one energy level to another energy level.

In case of electrovalent compound, the valance electron complete their octate by transferring their valence electrons while in the covalent compound, they complete their octate by the sharing of their valence electrons.

Hence, the valence electron of the atom effect the energy levels by the transition from one state to another state in the bond formation.

<span>The correct answer is( A) blood.

when the buffer solution its PH value changes very little when a small amount

of strong acid or base is added to it, and here the bicarbonate buffering system is used to regular the PH of the blood that keeping the PH at nearly constant value by maintaining the original acidity or basicity of the solution.</span>

The shadow zone exists because ?

lana66690 [7]

At almost the opposite point on the Earth's surface, the "P" waves reappear. The shadow zone exists because the waves are refracted as they pass through the boundary between the mantle and the core and are diverted from their original paths.

"How much NH4Cl, when present in 2.00 liters of 0.200 M ammonia, will give a solution with pH = 8.20? For NH3, Kb = 1.8 x 10-5"

Andru [333]

Answer:

245.66g of NH₄Cl is the mass we need to add to obtain the desire pH

Explanation:

The mixture of NH3/NH4Cl produce a buffer. We can find the pH of a buffer using H-H equation:

pH = pKa + log [A⁻] / [HA]

<em>Where [A⁻] is the molar concentration of the base, NH₃, and [HA] molar concentration of the acid, NH₄⁺. This molar concentration can be taken as the moles of each chemical</em>

<em />

First, we need to find pKa of NH₃ using Kb. Then, the moles of NH₃ and finally replace these values in H-H equation to solve moles of NH₄Cl we need to obtain the desire pH.

<em>pKa NH₃/NH₄⁺</em>

pKb = - log Kb

pKb = -log 1.8x10⁻⁵ = <em>4.74</em>

pKa = 14 - pKb

pKa = 14 - 4.74

pKa = 9.26

<em>Moles NH₃</em>

<em>2.00L ₓ (0.200mol NH₃ / L) = 0.400 moles NH₃</em>

<em>H-H equation:</em>

pH = pKa + log [NH₃] / [NH₄Cl]

8.20 = 9.26 + log [0.400 moles] / [NH₄Cl]

-1.06 = log [0.400 moles] / [NH₄Cl]

0.0087 = [0.400 moles] / [NH₄Cl]

[NH₄Cl] = 0.400 moles / 0.0087

[NH₄Cl] = 4.59 moles of NH₄Cl we need to add to original solution to obtain a pH of 8.20. In grams (Using molar mass NH₄Cl=53.491g/mol):

4.59 moles NH₄Cl ₓ (53.491g / mol) =

When lithium reacts with bromine to form the compound LiBr, each lithium atom:

yKpoI14uk [10]

(3) loses one electron and becomes positively charged
Lithium has one valence electron and Bromine has seven. Therefore Lithium will give up its one to Bromine for both to have an octet

How many unpaired electrons are present in a ground-state atom from each of the following groups?

musickatia [10]

For 7A(17) :

Electronic configuration $ns^2 np^5$

So, there are 5 unpaired electrons present in group 7A(17).

<h3>What are Unpaired Electrons?</h3>

An unpaired electron is an electron that doesn't form part of an electron pair when it occupies an atom's orbital in chemistry.
Each of an atom's three atomic orbitals, designated by the quantum numbers n, l, and m, has the capacity to hold a pair of two electrons with opposing spins.
Unpaired electrons are extremely uncommon in chemistry because an object carrying an unpaired electron is typically quite reactive. This is because the production of electron pairs, whether in the form of a chemical bond or as a lone pair, is frequently energetically advantageous.
They play a crucial role in describing reaction pathways even though they normally only appear momentarily during a reaction on a thing called a radical in organic chemistry.
