The answer is b) the highest occupied orbital is a “d”orbital.
Transition metals are metals where the highest energy electrons partially fill the d subshells. There are some elements with complete d subshells but on forming cations they have incomplete d subshells.
These transition metals have some properties that are different from the other metals .

A 2.5 mol sample of phosphorus pentachloride, PCl5 dissociates at 160C and 1.00atm to give 0.338 mol of phosphorus trichloride a
Readme [11.4K]

Explanation:

Moles of phosphorus pentachloride present initially = 2.5 mol

Moles of phosphorus trichloride at equilibrium = 0.338 mol

PCl_5\rightleftharpoons PCl_3+Cl_2

Initially

2.5 mol      0    0

At equilibrium:

(2.5 - x) mol      x     x

So, from above, the moles of phosphorus trichloride at equilibrium , x= 0.338 mol

Mass of 0.338 moles of  phosphorus trichloride at equilibrium:

= 0.338 mol × 137.5 g/mol = 46.475 g

Moles of phosphorus pentachloride present at equilibrium :

= (2.5 - 0.338) mol = 2.162 mol

Mass of 2.162 moles of  phosphorus pentachloride at equilibrium:

= 2.162 mol × 208.5 g/mol = 450.777 g

Moles of chloride gas present at equilibrium : 0.338 mol

Mass of 0.338 moles of chloride gas at equilibrium:

= 0.338 mol × 71 g/mol = 23.998 g

STEM is an acronym meaning

Science

Technology

Engineering

Mathematics

One of the main focuses of STEM courses is on science, so you will be learning about various types of science

This is an approach at learning to have students learn all four types of subjects in one class, based on real world applications.

Calculate the mass of Na2O that can be produced by the chemical reaction of 4.0 grams of sodium with excess oxygen in the reacti
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

The mass of Na₂O that can be produced by the chemical reaction of 4.0 grams of sodium with excess oxygen in the reaction is 5.39 grams.

Explanation:

You know  the balanced reaction:

4 NA + O₂ ⟶ 2 Na₂O

By stoichiometry of the reaction (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction) react and are produced:

  • Na: 4 moles
  • O₂: 1 mole
  • Na₂O: 2 moles

Being:

  • Na: 23 g/ole
  • O: 16 g/mole

the molar mass of the compounds participating in the reaction is:

  • Na: 23 g/mole
  • O₂: 2*16 g/mole= 32 g/mole
  • Na₂O: 2*23 g/mole +16 g/mole=  62 g/mole

Then by stoichiometry of the reaction they react and are produced:

  • Na: 4 moles* 23 g/mole= 92 g
  • O₂: 1 mole*32  g/mole= 32 g
  • Na₂O: 2 moles* 62 g/mole= 124 g

Then you can apply the following rule of three: if 92 grams of Na produce 124 grams of Na₂O, 4 grams of Na, how much mass of Na₂O does it produce?

massofNa_{2}O =\frac{4 grams of Na*124 gramsofNa_{2}O }{92 grams of Na}

mass of Na₂O=5.39 g

<em><u>The mass of Na₂O that can be produced by the chemical reaction of 4.0 grams of sodium with excess oxygen in the reaction is 5.39 grams.</u></em>
