An electron in an atom is known to be in a state with magnetic quantum number ml=0. What is the smallest possible value of the p

rincipal quantum number of the state?

Answer:

1

Explanation:

The principal quantum number, n, showsthe principal electron shell. which can inturn be describe as the most probable distance of the electrons from the nucleus, the larger the number n is, the farther the electron is from the nucleus, the larger the size of the orbital, and the larger the atom is. n can be any positive integer starting at 1, as n=1 designates the first principal shell (the innermost shell). When an electron is in an excited state or it gains energy, it may jump to the second principle shell, where n=2

As the energy of the electron increases, so does the principal quantum number, e.g., n = 3 indicates the third principal shell, n = 4 indicates the fourth principal shell, and so on. n=1,2,3,4…

On the other hand, the magnetic quantum number ml determines the number of orbitals and their orientation within a subshell. Consequently, its value depends on the orbital angular momentum quantum number l. Given a certain l, ml is an interval ranging from –l to +l, so it can be zero, a negative integer, or a positive integer. ml=−l,(−l+1),(−l+2),…,−2,−1,0,1,2,…(l–1),(l–2),+l

note also that: The orbital angular momentum quantum number l determines the shape of an orbital, and therefore the angular distribution. The number of angular nodes is equal to the value of the angular momentum quantum number l. Each value of l indicates a specific s, p, d, f subshell (each unique in shape.) The value of l is dependent on the principal quantum number n. Unlike n, the value of l can be zero. It can also be a positive integer, but it cannot be larger than one less than the principal quantum number (n-1): l=0,1,2,3,4…,(n−1).

So the answer is 1

What color would the methyl orange indicator turn in a solution with a pH of 2?
alexdok [17]

Answer:

The answer is red.

Explanation:

  1. Methyl orange is an organic dye that used as an indicator in acid-base titrations because its color is changed according to pH of the medium (acidic, neutral or basic).
  2. Methyl orange is red in acidic solutions, orange in neutral solutions, and yellow in basic solutions.

Since pH of the solution is 2, the solution is acidic, the color of the solution will be red.

Answer:

1 mole of peroxide (H₂O₂)

Explanation:

The given problem will solve by using Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

For example,

18 g of water = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules of water

1.008 g of hydrogen = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms of hydrogen

One mole of peroxide contain two mole of oxygen atom. Thus,

one mole oxygen atom = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms

For two mole oxygen atoms:

2×6.022 × 10²³ atoms

1.2× 10²⁴ oxygen atoms
