It is a) a non metal.
Remember: most metals are malleable (the opposite of brittle) and conduct electricity well.

Answer:

293 grams Fe₂S₃(s)

Explanation:

16Fe(s)  +     3S₈(s)     =>     8Fe₂S₃(s)

Excess  |   1.25 mole    |         ? grams

moles Fe₂S₈ produced = 8/3(1.25) mole Fe₂S₃(s) Yield = 3.33 mole  Fe₂S₃(s)

∴ grams of  Fe₂S₈ = 3.33 mole x 88 g/mole = 293 grams Fe₂S₃(s)

According to the molecular orbital energy-level diagram below, which one of the following statements is not correct about NO, NO
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

None of the statement is not correct about NO, NO+, and NO−.

Explanation:

Those molecules whose all subshells are completely filled are diamagnetic.

Those molecules whose any sub-shell is incomplete is termed paramagnetic.

Let us check the magnetism in all three molecules based on molecular orbital theory and Lewis structure

NO= number of electrons 11

It form N=O having configuration 1s2,2s2,2p6,3s1, it has 1 unpaired electron so it is paramagnetic.

Now NO-, number of electrons 12 having configuration 1s2,2s2,2p6,3s2, no unpaired electron hence dimagnetic.

Now NO+, number of electrons is 10 having configuration 1s2,2s2,2p6,3s2, dimagnetic

Let us calculate the bond order of NO-

N0- have 12 electrons as 5 of nitrogen, 6 of oxygen and 1 of - charge on oxygen.

So, bond order = \frac{8-4}{2}

                          = 2 double bonds

bond order of NO+, Number of electrons is 10

bond order= \frac{8-2}{2}

bond order = 3

bond order of NO, number of electrons 11

bond order= \frac{8-3}{2}

bond order=2.5

Larger the bond order shorter the bond.

What is the mass (in mg) of 2.63 moles of nickel?
zaharov [31]
Data:
Molar Mass of Nickel = 58,7 g/mol

Solving:
58,7 g → 1 mol
y -------→ 2.63 mol

Solving: (They are proportional measures, the rule of three is made (directly proportional)

\frac{58.7}{y} = \frac{1}{2.63}
multiply cross
1*y = 58.7*2.63
y = 154.381\:g \stackrel{converting}{\longrightarrow}\:\boxed{y = 154381\:mg}
