Which of the following is a possible set of quantum numbers for an electron (n,l,m0,ms) ?

Chemistry

Mashutka [201]3 years ago

Answer is: (3, 2, 0, -1/2).

The principal quantum number (n) is one of four quantum numbers which are assigned to each electron in an atom to describe that electron's state.

For principal quantum number n=3:  

1) azimuthal quantum number (l) can be l = 0...n-1:  

l = 0, 1, 2.  

The azimuthal quantum number determines its orbital angular momentum and describes the shape of the orbital.  

2) magnetic quantum number (ml) can be ml = -l...+l.  

ml = -2, -1, 0, +1, +2.

Magnetic quantum number specify orientation of electrons in magnetic field and number of electron states (orbitals) in subshells.  

3) the spin quantum number (ms), is the spin of the electron.  

ms = +1/2, -1/2.  

(1, 1, 0, +1/2)  is not correct because orbital quantum number cannot be l = 1 for n = 1.

(2, 1, 2, +1/2)  is not correct because magnetic quantum number cannot be ml = 2 for orbital quantum number l = 1.

(3, -2, 1, -1/2) is not correct because orbital quantum number cannot be l = -2 for principal quantum number n = 3.

For each pair below, select the sample that contains the largest number of moles. Pair A 2.50 g O2 2.50 g N2
raketka [301]

Answer:

Explanation:

Pair  2.50g of O₂ and 2.50g of  N₂

The atoms sample with the largest number of moles since the masses are the same would be the one with lowest molar mass according the the equation below:

Number of moles = \frac{mass }{molarmass}

Atomic mass of O = 16g and N = 14g

Molar mass of O₂ = 16 x 2 = 32gmol⁻¹

Molar mass of N₂ = 14 x 2 = 28gmol⁻¹

Number of moles of O₂ = \frac{2.5}{32} = 0.078mole

Number of moles of N₂ = \frac{2.5}{28} =  0.089mole

We see that N₂ has the largest number of moles

How do heater meals work?
drek231 [11]

Answer:

The patented TRUE-TECH Self-Heating Technology is a simple combination of food grade iron and magnesium powder, salt, and water. When the contents of the water pouch are poured over the heater pad, the Food Heater releases enough heat to warm-up a pre-cooked meal 100 degrees Fahrenheit in approximately 10 minutes.

Based on the law of conservation of mass, which of the following statements is correct? Matter is neither created nor destroyed.
Dmitrij [34]

The first statement (Matter is neither created nor destroyed) is correct.

The second statement would violate the law of conservation of mass (I will refer to this as LCM), as it would mean matter can "flow" into the universe, but not out, meaning the total matter will never be less than it was before.

The third statement violates LCM because it means matter is created during a reaction, which is not true.

The last statement violates LCM because it means matter is lost during a reaction, which is not true.
