Which of the following statements is TRUE? Which of the following statements is TRUE? Electrons placed in antibonding orbitals s

tabilize the ion/molecule. The total number of molecular orbitals formed doesn't always equal the number of atomic orbitals in the set. When two atomic orbitals come together to form two molecular orbitals, one molecular orbital will be lower in energy than the two separate atomic orbitals and one molecular orbital will be higher in energy than the separate atomic orbitals. A bond order of 0 represents a stable chemical bond. All of the above are true.

Answer:

When two atomic orbitals come together to form two molecular orbitals, one molecular orbital will be lower in energy than the two separate atomic orbitals and one molecular orbital will be higher in energy than the separate atomic orbitals.

Explanation:

<em>Which of the following statements is TRUE? </em>

  • <em>Electrons placed in antibonding orbitals stabilize the ion/molecule.</em> FALSE. Electrons in the antibonding orbitals destabilize the ion/molecule.
  • <em>The total number of molecular orbitals formed doesn't always equal the number of atomic orbitals in the set.</em> FALSE. The total number of molecular orbitals is always equal to the number of atomic orbitals in the set.
  • <em>When two atomic orbitals come together to form two molecular orbitals, one molecular orbital will be lower in energy than the two separate atomic orbitals and one molecular orbital will be higher in energy than the separate atomic orbitals.</em> TRUE. The orbital with lower energy will be the bonding orbital and the one with higher energy will be the antibonding orbital.
  • <em>A bond order of 0 represents a stable chemical bond.</em> FALSE. A chemical bond is stable if the bond order is higher than zero.

A scientist is trying to determine whether a certain substance is radioactive. Which question would be most helpful to ask?
oksian1 [2.3K]
Well a question to ask would be if the mass of the material has changed significantly as that would determine that the substance is radioactive or if there have been any high readings found by a Geiger meter in certain period of time

hope that helps

Consider the unbalanced equation for the oxidation of aluminum.
SashulF [63]
In order to balance an equation, we apply the principle of conservation of mass, which states that mass can neither be created nor destroyed. Therefore, the mass of an element before and after a reaction remains constant. Here, the balanced equation becomes:
4Al + 3O₂ → 2Al₂O₃

The coefficients are 4, 3 and 2.

What metal will have properties most similar to those of chromium (Cr)? Why?
garri49 [273]
That element is manganese. As they are in same horizontal row (period) and are next to each other. That is why they show same properties. 

Hope this helps xox :)

Mechanism with a small activation energy or one with large activation energy​
tangare [24]

Answer:

Rate depends on the rate constant. The rate constant depends on temperature and activation energy. If you have lower activation energy the rate will be higher. This is why catalysts are added since catalysts provide an alternate pathway that requires lower activation energy and catalysts are added to increase the rate of reaction.

Explanation:

This is only the answer if you were asking:

"Which corresponds to the faster rate: a mechanism with a small activation energy or one with a large activation energy?"

Thats what I understood about your question.
