6. What happens when a piece of sodium is dropped into water?​

Chemistry
1 answer:
Sloan [31]2 years ago
3 0
Sodium’s combination with water creates a colourless result of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and hydrogen gas (H2). ... The reaction is exothermic. During the reaction, the sodium metal become very hot, to the point where it can catch fire and burns with a characteristic orange colour.

Which type of orbital will be occupied by the electrons of highest energy for the Si^4+ ground-state ion? 1. 2s 2. 3p 3. 4s 4. 4
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer: Option (5) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

It is known that the ground state electronic configuration of silicon is [Ne]3s^{2}3p^{2}.

And, we know that when an atom tends to gain an electron then it acquires a negative charge and when an atom tends to lose an electron then it acquires a positive charge.

As Si^{4+} has a +4 charge which means that it has lost 4 electrons. Hence, the electronic configuration of Si^{4+} is 1s^{2}2s^{2}2p^{6}.

According to the Aufbau principle, in the ground state of an atom or ion the electrons fill atomic orbitals of the lowest energy levels first, before filling the higher energy levels.

As 2p orbital is filled after the filling of 2s orbital.

Therefore, we can conclude that 2p orbital will be occupied by the electrons of highest energy for the Si^{4+} ground-state ion.

If you have 2.4L of SO2 gas (at STP) how many moles of sulfur dioxide do you have?
Andru [333]

Answer:

0.107 mole of SO2.

Explanation:

1 mole of a gas occupy 22.4 L at standard temperature and pressure (STP).

With the above information, we can simply calculate the number of mole of SO2 that will occupy 2.4 L at STP.

This can be obtained as follow:

22.4 L contains 1 mole of SO2.

Therefore, 2.4 L will contain = 2.4/22.4 = 0.107 mole of SO2.

Therefore, 0.107 mole of SO2 is present in 2.4 L at STP.

6.5 Moles of Al reacts with 7.2 Moles of H2O What is the limiting reactant and calculate the Theoretical Yield?
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

H₂O is the limiting reactant

Theoretical yield of 240 g Al₂O₃ and 14 g H₂

Explanation:

Find how many moles of one reactant is needed to completely react with the other.

6.5 mol Al × (3 mol H₂O / 2 mol Al) = 9.75 mol H₂O

We need 9.75 mol of H₂O to completely react with 6.5 mol of Al.  But we only have 7.2 mol of H₂O.  Therefore, H₂O is the limiting reactant.

Now find the theoretical yield:

7.2 mol H₂O × (1 mol Al₂O₃ / 3 mol H₂O) × (102 g Al₂O₃ / mol Al₂O₃) ≈ 240 g Al₂O₃

7.2 mol H₂O × (3 mol H₂ / 3 mol H₂O) × (2 g H₂ / mol H₂) ≈ 14 g H₂

Since the data was given to two significant figures, we must round our answer to two significant figures as well.

Why are solutions considered mixtures?
Alex_Xolod [135]
Solute and solvent form a solution, which means two different kinds of molecules/atoms/compounds are mixed together, therefore, it is a mixture.
