Use molecular orbital theory to determine whether f22+ is paramagnetic or diamagnetic.

Chemistry

Alexxandr [17]3 years ago

We have to know whether F₂²⁺ is paramagnetic or diamagnetic.

F₂²⁺ is paramagnetic.

If number of unpaired electron in any species is equal to zero, the species is diamagnetic and the species contains unpaired electrons, then the species is paramagnetic.

The magnetic property can be explained using molecular orbital theory.

Total number of electron present in   F₂²⁺ is equal to 16 (i.e, 9+9-2). From the molecular orbital electronic configuration, number of electrons present in pi orbitals present is equal to 2.

So,  F₂²⁺ is paramagnetic.

Answer : F_2^{2+} is paramagnetic.

Explanation :

According to the molecular orbital theory, the general molecular orbital configuration will be,

(\sigma_{1s}),(\sigma_{1s}^*),(\sigma_{2s}),(\sigma_{2s}^*),[(\pi_{2p_x})=(\pi_{2p_y})],(\sigma_{2p_z}),[(\pi_{2p_x}^*)=(\pi_{2p_y}^*)],(\sigma_{2p_z}^*)

As there are 9 electrons present in fluorine.

The number of electrons present in F_2^{2+} molecule = 2(9) - 2 = 16

The molecular orbital configuration of F_2^{2+} molecule will be,

(\sigma_{1s})^2,(\sigma_{1s}^*)^2,(\sigma_{2s})^2,(\sigma_{2s}^*)^2,(\sigma_{2p_z})^2,[(\pi_{2p_x})^2=(\pi_{2p_y})^2],[(\pi_{2p_x}^*)^1=(\pi_{2p_y}^*)^1],(\sigma_{2p_z}^*)^0

Paramagnetic compounds : They have unpaired electrons.

Diamagnetic compounds : They have no unpaired electrons that means all are paired.

The number of unpaired electron in molecule is, 2. So, this is paramagnetic. That means, more the number of unpaired electrons, more paramagnetic.

Thus, is paramagnetic.

A 0.223 mole sample of gas is held at 33.0 C and 2.00 atm, What's the volume of the gas? R = 0.0821 L atm / mol K answer soon il
Ghella [55]

Answer:

The volume of the gas is 2.80 L.

Explanation:

An ideal gas is a theoretical gas that is considered to be made up of point particles that move randomly and do not interact with each other. Gases in general are ideal when they are at high temperatures and low pressures.

The Pressure (P) of a gas on the walls of the container that contains it, the Volume (V) it occupies, the Temperature (T) at which it is located and the amount of substance it contains (number of moles, n) are related from the equation known as Equation of State of Ideal Gases:

P*V = n*R*T

where R is the constant of ideal gases.

In this case:

  • P= 2 atm
  • V= ?
  • n=0.223 moles
  • R= 0.0821 \frac{L*atm}{mol*K}
  • T=33 °C= 306 °K (being O°C= 273°K)

Replacing:

2 atm* V= 0.223 moles*0.0821 \frac{L*atm}{mol*K}* 306 K

Solving:

V=\frac{0.223 moles*0.0821\frac{L*atm}{mol*K} * 306 K}{2 atm} \\

V= 2.80 L

<u><em>The volume of the gas is 2.80 L.</em></u>

The oxidation state of phosphorus is +3 in
IgorC [24]

Answer:

b) Phosphorus acid

Explanation:

To distinguish the type of acid of phosphorus with the oxidation state of +3, we need to be familiar with the chemical formula of each of the compounds:

    Orthophosphoric acid             H₃PO₄

    Phosphorus acid                       H₃PO₃

    Metaphosphoric acid               HPO₃

    Phyrophosphoric acid​               H₄P₂O₇

Now that we know the formula of the given compounds, the algebraic sum of all the oxidation numbers of all atoms in a neutral compound is zero:

Only phosphorus acid yielded an oxidation state of +3 for phosphorus in the compound.

  H₃PO₃:

   we know the oxidation state of H = +1

                                                          O = -2

         The oxidation state of P is unknown. We can express this as an equation:

                3(+1) + P + 3(-2) = 0

                    3 + P -6 = 0

                          P-3 = 0

                          P = +3

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

0.200 mol H₂S

<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>

Molar Mass of H - 1.01 g/mol

Molar Mass of S - 32.07 g/mol

Molar Mass of H₂S - 2(1.01) + 32.07 = 34.09 g/mol

<u>Step 3: Convert</u>

  1. Set up:                    \displaystyle 0.200 \ mol \ H_2S(\frac{34.09 \ g \ H_2S}{1 \ mol \ H_2S})
  2. Multiply:                  \displaystyle 6.818 \ g \ H_2S

<u>Step 4: Check</u>

<em>Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 3 sig figs.</em>

6.818 g H₂S ≈ 6.82 g H₂S
