Answer:

According to Hund's rule and the Aufbau principle in which the orbitals must be filled with electrons, they are not strictly applied in the real universe, because the intermediate and electron-filled atomic orbitals are very stable . Because there are four d-orbitals in universe L, a typical half-full configuration will be xd4 and its full configuration will be xd8, where x is the primary orbital for any specific element. Here is an example:

Vahadium ₂₃V

in real universe: [Ar]₈ 3d³4s²

in universe L: [Ar]₁₈ 3d⁴4s¹

Chromium

in real universe: [Ar]₈ 3d⁵4s¹

in universe L: [Ar]₁₈ 3d⁴4s²

1. Which phase change is accompanied by the release of heat? A) H20(s)--> H2O(g) B) H20(l) ->H2O(s) C) H20(l)→ H2O(g) D) H
docker41 [41]

Answer:

B, liquid to solid.

Explanation: Since heat is being released, the particles for H2O would clump up. Heat is basically being taken out.

Menthol, the substance we can smell in mentholated cough drops, is composed of C, H, and O. A 0.1005 g sample of menthol is comb
Bogdan [553]

<u>Answer:</u> The molecular formula for the menthol is C_{10}H_{20}O

<u>Explanation:</u>

The chemical equation for the combustion of hydrocarbon having carbon, hydrogen and oxygen follows:

C_xH_yO_z+O_2\rightarrow CO_2+H_2O

where, 'x', 'y' and 'z' are the subscripts of Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen respectively.

We are given:

Mass of CO_2=0.2829g

Mass of H_2O=0.1159g

We know that:

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

  • <u>For calculating the mass of carbon:</u>

In 44g of carbon dioxide, 12 g of carbon is contained.

So, in 0.2829 g of carbon dioxide, \frac{12}{44}\times 0.2829=0.077g of carbon will be contained.

  • <u>For calculating the mass of hydrogen:</u>

In 18g of water, 2 g of hydrogen is contained.

So, in 0.1159 g of water, \frac{2}{18}\times 0.1159=0.0129g of hydrogen will be contained.

  • Mass of oxygen in the compound = (0.1005) - (0.077 + 0.0129) = 0.0106 g

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

  • <u>Step 1:</u> Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Carbon = \frac{\text{Given mass of Carbon}}{\text{Molar mass of Carbon}}=\frac{0.077g}{12g/mole}=0.0064moles

Moles of Hydrogen = \frac{\text{Given mass of Hydrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of Hydrogen}}=\frac{0.0129g}{1g/mole}=0.0129moles

Moles of Oxygen = \frac{\text{Given mass of oxygen}}{\text{Molar mass of oxygen}}=\frac{0.0106g}{16g/mole}=0.00066moles

  • <u>Step 2:</u> Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 0.00066 moles.

For Carbon = \frac{0.0064}{0.00066}=9.69\approx 10

For Hydrogen  = \frac{0.0129}{0.00064}=19.54\approx 20

For Oxygen  = \frac{0.00066}{0.00066}=1

  • <u>Step 3:</u> Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of C : H : O = 10 : 20 : 1

Hence, the empirical formula for the given compound is C_{10}H_{20}O_1=C_{10}H_{20}O

For determining the molecular formula, we need to determine the valency which is multiplied by each element to get the molecular formula.

The equation used to calculate the valency is :

n=\frac{\text{molecular mass}}{\text{empirical mass}}

We are given:

Mass of molecular formula = 156.27 g/mol

Mass of empirical formula = 156 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

n=\frac{156.27g/mol}{156g/mol}=1

Multiplying this valency by the subscript of every element of empirical formula, we get:

C_{(1\times 10)}H_{(1\times 20)}O_{(1\times 1)}=C_{10}H_{20}O

Thus, the molecular formula for the menthol is C_{10}H_{20}O
