Compute the percent ionic character of the interatomic bonds for the following compounds : a. TiO2 b. ZnTe c. CsCld. InSb e. MgC

sesenic [268]

Answer:

a. 63.2%

b. 11.7%

c. 73.3%

d. 0.995%

e. 55.5%

Explanation:

An ionic compound is a compound that is formed by ions, so one of the elements must donate electrons (which is the cation, the positive ion), and the other will receive these electrons (which is the anion, the negative ion).

The power of an element has to attract the electrons is called electronegativity, and so, as higher is the difference of electronegative of the elements, it is more probable that one of them will "still" the electrons and will form an ionic compound. The percent of this ionic character can be found by the Pauling's equation:

$%IC = (1 - e^{-0.25*(x_A - x_B)^2})$ *100%

Where $x_A - x_B$ is the electronegativity difference of the elements. Thus, consulting an electronegativity table:

a. $x_{Ti}$ = 1.5

$x_{O}$ = 3.5

$%IC = (1 - e^{-0.25*(3.5 - 1.5)^2})$ *100%

%IC = 63.2%

b. $x_{Zn}$ = 1.6

$x_{Te}$ = 2.1

$%IC = (1 - e^{-0.25*(2.1 - 1.6)^2})$ *100%

%IC = 11.7%

c. $x_{Cs}$ = 0.7

$x_{Cl}$ = 3.0

$%IC = (1 - e^{-0.25*(3.0 - 0.7)^2})$ *100%

%IC = 73.3%

d. $x_{In}$ = 1.7

$x_{Sb}$ = 1.9

$%IC = (1 - e^{-0.25*(1.9 - 1.7)^2})$ *100%

%IC = 0.995 %

e. $x_{Mg}$ = 1.2

$x_{Cl}$ = 3.0

$%IC = (1 - e^{-0.25*(3.0 - 1.2)^2})$ *100%

%IC = 55.5%

Define a transverse wave

Mumz [18]

Transverse wave, motion in which all points on a wave oscillate along paths at right angles to the direction of the wave's advance. Surface ripples on water, seismic S (secondary) waves, and electromagnetic (e.g., radio and light) waves are examples of transverse waves.

An electron in a hydrogen atom has orbital quantum number l = 7. how many possible values of the magnetic quantum number ml coul

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

A total of 15 magnetic quantum values are possible.

<h3>What is a Magnetic quantum number?</h3>

One of the four quantum numbers that describe an electron's position in relation to the nucleus is its magnetic quantum number.

Between spin and azimuthal quantum numbers, the magnetic quantum number comes in third on the list. The electron is positioned in one of the various orbitals formed by the division of the subshells (such as s, p, d, and f). It specifies the spatial direction of an orbital of certain energy (n) and form (I). The number of orbitals in each subshell is given as 2+1, where is the azimuthal quantum number. We can determine the orbital in each sub-shell using that method.

We are aware that there are between -l and +l conceivable magnetic quantum numbers.

Here l = 7

Thus, the range of magnetic quantum numbers will be -7 to +7.

Thus, the magnetic quantum numbers are as follows:

-7, -6, -5, -4,-3,-2,-1, 0, 1,2,3,4, 5, 6,7

This opens up a total of 15 magnetic quantum numbers.

I need help with number 8 please help ASAP.

Answer:

33.33% = 33%

Explanation:

MgCO3(s) + 2HCl (aq) --> MgCl2(aq) + H20(l) + CO2(g)

1 mole of MCO3 will produce → 1 mole of CO2

We need to get the number of mole of CO2:

and when we have 0.22 g of CO2, so number of mole = mass / molar mass

Moles = 0.22 g / 44 g/mol = 0.005 mole

Moles of Mg = moles of CO2 = 0.005 mole

Mass of Mg = moles * molar mass

= 0.005 * 84 /mol = 0.42 g

Percent of MgCO3 by mass of Mg = 0.42 g / 1.26 * 100

=33.33 %
