A carbon iota can bond with four other iotas and is just like the four-hole wheel, whereas an oxygen iota, which can bond only to two, is just like the two-hole wheel.
Answer: K only has 1 valence electron. It will leave with only a little effort, leaving behind a positively charged K^+1 atom.
Explanation: A neutral potassium atom has 19 total electrons. But only 1 of them is in potassium's valence shell. Valence shell means the outermost s and p orbitals. Potasium's electron configuration is 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^6 4s^1. The 4s orbital is the only orbital in the 4th energy level. So it has a valency of 1. This means this electron will be the most likely to leave, since it is the lone electron in the oyutermost energy level (4). When that electron leaves, the charge on the atom go up by 1. The atom now has a full valence shell of 3s^2 3p^6, the same as argon, Ar.
The chemical formula does not show how the atoms are connected to one another.
When we write the chemical formula of any substance, we are not able to understand the spatial arrangement of that substance's atoms. This is extremely important in organic compounds, which exhibit different physical characteristics as well as different chemical characteristics due to the way their atoms are arranged in space. These isomers are known as enantiomers.
Answer: The enthalpy change for formation of butane is -125 kJ/mol
Explanation:
The balanced chemical reaction is,
The expression for enthalpy change is,
![\Delta H=[n\times H_f{products}]-[n\times H_f{reactants}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CDelta%20H%3D%5Bn%5Ctimes%20H_f%7Bproducts%7D%5D-%5Bn%5Ctimes%20H_f%7Breactants%7D%5D)
Putting the values we get :
![\Delta H=[4\times H_f_{CO_2}+5\times H_f_{H_2O}]-[1\times H_f_{C_4H_{10}}+\frac{13}{2}\times H_f_{O_2}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CDelta%20H%3D%5B4%5Ctimes%20H_f_%7BCO_2%7D%2B5%5Ctimes%20H_f_%7BH_2O%7D%5D-%5B1%5Ctimes%20H_f_%7BC_4H_%7B10%7D%7D%2B%5Cfrac%7B13%7D%7B2%7D%5Ctimes%20H_f_%7BO_2%7D%5D)
![-2877=[(4\times -393)+(5\times -286)]-[1\times H_f_{C_4H_{10}}+\frac{13}{2}\times 0]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-2877%3D%5B%284%5Ctimes%20-393%29%2B%285%5Ctimes%20-286%29%5D-%5B1%5Ctimes%20H_f_%7BC_4H_%7B10%7D%7D%2B%5Cfrac%7B13%7D%7B2%7D%5Ctimes%200%5D)
Thus enthalpy change for formation of butane is -125 kJ/mol
