Answer:

D. Cr

Explanation:

In order to determine which atom has at least one electron in its d orbital, we have to write their theoretical electron configurations.

₁₂Mg 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s²

₁₉K 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s¹

₁₆S 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁴

₂₄Cr 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s² 3d⁴

Cr has 4 electrons in d orbitals. Cr belongs to the d-block in the periodic table.

Measurements show that unknown x compound has the following composition:

Fudgin [204]

The empirical formula of the compound with the percent composition C 18.1%, H 2.27%, Cl 79.8% is C₂H₃Cl₃.

<h3>What is an empirical formula?</h3>

It is the minimum ratio between the elements that form a compound.

Step 1: Divide each percentage by the molar mass of the element.

C: 18.1/12.01 = 1.51

H: 2.27/1.01 = 2.25

Cl: 79.8/35.45 = 2.25

Step 2: Divide all the numbers by the smallest one.

C; 1.51/1.51 = 1

H: 2.25/1.51 ≈ 1.5

Cl: 2.25/1.51 ≈ 1.5

Step 3: Multiply all the numbers by 2 so all of them are whole.

C: 1 × 2 = 2

H: 1.5 × 2 = 3

Cl: 1.5 × 2 = 3

The empirical formula is C₂H₃Cl₃.

The empirical formula of the compound with the percent composition C 18.1%, H 2.27%, Cl 79.8% is C₂H₃Cl₃.

Aqueous hydrochloric acid (HCl) reacts with solid sodium hydroxide (NaOH) to produce aqueous sodium chloride (NaCl) and liquid w

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

87.9 % is the percent yield of H₂O

Explanation:

This is the neutralization reaction. A base reacts with an acid to produce water and the correspondly ionic salt.

NaOH + HCl → NaCl + H₂O

As we have the mass of the two reactants, we must determine the limiting reactant.

Let's convert to moles, the mass of each reactant. (mass / molar mass)

21.1 g / 36.45 g/mol = 0.579 moles of HCl

46.3 g / 40g/mol = 1.15 moles of NaOH

Ratio is 1:1, so it is obviously that the limiting reactant is the HCl. For 1.15 moles of NaOH, i need the same amount of acid, but I only have 0.579 moles

Let's work with the products now. Ratio is 1:1 again, so If I have 0.579 moles of acid, I can produce 0.579 moles of H₂O.

How many grams are 0.579 moles of water? We should find it out as this

mol . molar mass = mass → 0.579 mol . 18 g/mol = 10.4 g

We were told that the production of water was 9.17 g, so let's determine the percent yield as this:

(Yield produced / Theoretical yield) . 100 =

(9.17 g / 10.4g ) . 100 = 87.9 %

(c) O2 gas is transferred from a 3 L vessel containing oxygen at 4 atm to an evacuated 20 L vessel at a constant temperature of

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

After the transfer the pressure inside the 20 L vessel is 0.6 atm.

Explanation:

Considering O2 as an ideal gas, it is at an initial state (1) with V1 = 3L and P1 = 4 atm. And a final state (2) with V2 = 20L. The temperature remain constant at all the process, thus here applies the Boyle-Mariotte law. This law establishes that at a constant temperature an ideal gas the relationship between pressure and volume remain constant at all time:

$P x V = k$
