Give the symbol of the element that has the largest atomic size in group 3a (13).

1 answer:

4 0

This family of elements is headed by boron. In this case, atomic size increases as one goes down the periodic table, as there are more electrons in each successive element needed to fill the outer shells. As such, thallium, at the lowest level of the group 3a column, will have the largest atomic size.

What is the total probability of finding a particle in a one-dimensional box in level n = 4 between x = 0 and x = L/8?

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

P = 1/8

Explanation:

The wave function of a particle in a one-dimensional box is given by:

$\psi = \sqrt \frac{2}{L} sin(\frac{n \pi x}{L})$

Hence, the probability of finding the particle in the one-dimensional box is:

$P = \int_{x_{1}}^{x_{2}} \psi^{2} dx$

$P = \int_{x_{1}}^{x_{2}} (\sqrt \frac{2}{L} sin(\frac{n \pi x}{L}))^{2} dx$

$P = \frac{2}{L} \int_{x_{1}}^{x_{2}} (sin^{2}(\frac{n \pi x}{L}) dx$

Evaluating the above integral from x₁ = 0 to x₂ = L/8 and solving it, we have:

$P = \frac{2}{L} [\frac{L}{16} (1 - 4\frac{sin(\frac{n \pi}{4})}{n \pi})]$

$P = \frac{1}{8} (1 - 4\frac{sin(\frac{n \pi}{4})}{n \pi})$

Solving for n=4:

$P = \frac{1}{8} (1 - 4\frac{sin(\frac{4 \pi}{4})}{4 \pi})$

$P = \frac{1}{8} (1 - \frac{sin (\pi)}{\pi})$

$P = \frac{1}{8}$

I hope it helps you!

Provide the name(s) for the tertiary alcohol(s) with the chemical formula C6H14O that have a 4-carbon chain. Although stereochem

pochemuha

Answer:

Explanation:

A tertiary alcohol is a compound (an alcohol) in which the carbon atom that has the hydroxyl group (-OH) is also bonded (saturated) to three different carbon atoms.

Based on the question, the only tertiary alcohol that can result from C₆H₁₄O that have a 4-carbon chain is

2-hydroxy-2,3-dimethylbutane

H OH H H

| | | |

H - C - C - C - C - H

| | | |

H CH₃ CH₃ H

From the above, we can see that the carbon atom having the hydroxyl group is also bonded to three other carbon atoms. And since we aren't considering stereochemistry, this is the only tertiary alcohol we can have with a 4-carbon chain

A serving of soup contains 5.0 g of fat, 20.0 g of carbohydrates, and 3.0 g of protein. Determine how many kilocalories (kcal) a

marta [7]

Answer: The amount of kilocalories contained in the given serving of soup is 0.137 kCal

Explanation:

As per the USDA:

Carbohydrates provide 4 calories per gram, protein provides 4 calories per gram, and fat provides 9 calories per gram.

We are given

Mass of fat in the soup serving = 5.0 g

Mass of carbohydrates in the soup serving = 20.0 g

Mass of protein in the soup serving = 3.0 g

Conversion factor used: 1 kCal = 1000 Cal

Applying unitary method:

For Fat:

1 gram of fat provides 9 calories

So, 5.0 gram of fat will provide = $\frac{9}{1}\times 5.0=45Cal=0.045kCal$

For Carbohydrates:

1 gram of carbohydrates provides 4 calories

So, 20.0 gram of carbohydrates will provide = $\frac{4}{1}\times 20.0=80Cal=0.080kCal$

For Proteins:

1 gram of proteins provides 4 calories

So, 3.0 gram of fat will provide = $\frac{4}{1}\times 3=12Cal=0.012kCal$

Total kilocalories per serving = [0.045 + 0.080 + 0.012] kCal = 0.137 kCal

Hence, the amount of kilocalories contained in the given serving of soup is 0.137 kCal
