Why do the spectra of the molecular species show broader bands compared to atomic spectra such as that seen for the hydrogen ato

m?
Chemistry

Olenka [21]3 years ago
8 0

Explanation:

The  atomic spectrum is more like the transitions of electrons among electronic energy levels in an isolated atom. Atomic spectrum is mainly affected by interaction of the transitioning electrons between the nuclei spins and between the other electrons in the same atom.

However, molecular spectrum involve transition of electrons in molecules with two and more atoms(it can be in the same or different). Also, the valence electrons are now in different orbitals than that of  the atomic orbitals and the orbital structure has changed the electronic transitions are different

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

8 grams

Explanation:

The molar mass of CH4 is about 16 grams per mol.  So you get the answer by mutlitplying 0.5 by 16, (cancel out moles by placing 1 on the bottom of the fraction).

Elements that form ionic bonds generally have how many valence electrons? ± 1 or ± 2 ± 2 or ± 3 ± 4 ± 5
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

± 1 or ± 2

Explanation:

Electrovalent bonds are chemical bonds that are established on the premise of transferring electrons between two atoms.

In this bond type, a higly electronegative atom, typically a non-metal receives electrons from an atom with lesser electronegativity, a metal.

To know the number of electrons involved in forming electrovalent bonds, we typically look at the groups of atoms that combines to form the bond.

Metals are found in group I and II on the periodic table. Metals are electropositive and are good electron donors. These metals have 1 and 2 electrons in their valence shell respectively. In like manners, the more electronegative atoms are found in group VI and VII. The elements in these groups are non-metals with high electronegativity and requires just 1 and 2 electrons to complete their octet.
