What is the difference between the 3p sublevel and the 4p sublevel? On the periodic table

1 answer:

6 0

The p sublevels are named 2p, 3p, and 4p since the p sublevel appears only starting the 2nd level. By the Aufbau principle, 3p will be filled first before 4p. This is because of the energy present on the level.

Each of the p sublevel has 3 orbitals, allowing them to contain 6 electrons as each orbital may hold two.

There are ________ σ bonds and ________ π bonds in h3c-ch2-ch=ch-ch2-c≡ch.

FrozenT [24]

The number of sigma and pi bonds are,

Sigma Bonds = 16

Pi Bonds = 3

Explanation:
Every first bond formed between two atoms is sigma. Pi bond is formed when already a sigma bond is there. While in case of Alkyne (triple Bond) there is one sigma and one pi bond already present, so the third bond is formed by second side-to-side overlap of orbitals, hence, a second pi bond is formed.
Below all black bonds are sigma bonds, while in alkene there is one pi bond and in alkyne there are two pi bonds.

A piece of asphalt has a volume of 5.0 cm3 and a mass of 7.5 g. What is the density of the asphalt?

strojnjashka [21]

Density = mass / volume
Density = 7.5 g / 5.0 cm3
Density = 1.5 g/cm3

Which characteristics are common to the three isotopes of hydrogen?

allsm [11]

D should be the correct answer. isotopes are atoms that have the same atomic number (number of protons) but different atomic masses (number of protons and neutrons). isotopes also have the same number of electrons since atoms need to have equal numbers of protons and electrons to not be considered ions. Since the number of protons determines the chemical properties of the atom, we can say that all isotopes have the same chemical properties due to the fact that all isotopes have the same atomic number.

I hope this helps. Let me know in the comments if anything is unclear.
