What is the correct representation for the subshell with n = 2 and l = 1?

Hey there! Hello!

When I was doing this part of chemistry, I found it easiest to do these problems with a chart. I've attached a picture of one that I printed out with some writing on it; I really wish I could find the actual picture I printed out, but I have so much on my computer and I know you need help ASAP. 

So, first thing to keep in mind is what n and l mean. "n" is the principal quantum number/level, which basically means it's the top energy level. Then, one down from that is "l," which is the angular quantum number, or the sublevel. You can refer to these however you like. Keep in mind how the number that "l" is translates to the different letters that represent sublevels:

0=s sublevel, 1=p sublevel, 2=d sublevel, and 3=f sublevel. 

<span>What the problem is asking you to do is define the subshell that has an "n" of 2 and an "l" of 1. Given what I've previously stated, the proper representation will be "2p," since your "l" value is equal to 2, or p. 

I hope that my answer (and attachment) help you out! Feel free to ask me any additional questions if you have any. :-)</span>

VikaD [51]
The answer is <span>D.when the aim is to show electron distributions in shells. This is because there are some instances when elements don't possess a regular or normal electron configuration. There are those who have special electron configurations wherein a lower subshell isn't completely filled before occupying a higher subshell. It is best to visualize such cases using the orbital notation.</span>

A geometric isomer with two alkyl groups on the same side of the carbon-carbon double bond is called
grandymaker [24]
Answer:
             <span>A geometric isomer with two alkyl groups on the same side of the carbon-carbon double bond is called <em>cis</em> Isomer.

Explanation:
                   Geometric isomerism takes place about the double bond in alkenes when the alkyl groups are either situated at the same side (<em>cis</em>) or are situated opposite (<em>trans</em>) to each other.

Example:
               <em>cis</em>-2-Butene (highlighted red)

               <em>trans</em>-2-Butene (highlighted blue)</span>

Which substance is a base? HCOOH RbOH H2CO3 NaNO3
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

RbOH

Explanation:

For this question, we have to remember what is the definition of a base. A base is a compound that has the <u>ability to produce hydroxyl ions</u> OH^-, so:

AOH~->~A^+~+~OH^-

With this in mind we can write the <u>reaction for each substance:</u>

HCOOH~->~HCOO^-~+~H^+

RbOH~->~Rb^+~+~OH^-

H_2CO_3~->~CO_3^-^2~+~2H^+

NaNO_3~->~Na^+~+~NO_3^-

The only compound that fits with the definition is RbOH, so this is our <u>base</u>.

I hope it helps!

#12 please! worth 40 points
Serga [27]
Okay so because of the difference in density a simple method for telling the difference between the two is to put a sample in a container with oil, because water has a higher density than the oil it would sink to the bottom but alcohol on the other hand is lighter than oil and would float on top of the oil.

However with this question I think that what you would do is use the ice to find out what the substance is, it would float on top of the liquid if it were water because the water is denser than ice but the ice would sink if it was alcohol because the alcohol is less dense than ice. 


I hope this helps you, good luck : )
