Because the 4s orbital is at a lower energy level.

The 4s orbital has a lower energy because it is more <em>penetrating</em> than a 3d orbital. A 4s electron can get closer the nucleus than a 3d electron, so it has a lower potential energy.

The other options are incorrect because they contradict the correct one.

g A laboratory analysis of an unknown compound found the following composition: C 75.68% ; H 8.80% ; O 15.52%. What is the empir
sammy [17]

Answer:

THE EMPIRICAL FORMULA FOR THE UNKNOWN COMPOUND IS C7H9O

Explanation:

The empirical formula for the unknown compound can be obtained by following the processes below:

1 . Write out the percentage composition of the individual elements in the compound

C = 75.68 %

H = 8.80 %

O = 15.52 %

2. Divide the percentage composition by the atomic masses of the elements

C = 75 .68 / 12 = 6.3066

H = 8.80 / 1 = 8.8000

O = 15.52 / 16 = 0.9700

3. Divide the individual results by the lowest values

C = 6.3066 / 0.9700 = 6.5016

H = 8.8000 / 0.9700 = 9.0722

O = 0.9700 / 0.9700 = 1

4. Round up the values to the whole number

C = 7

H = 9

O = 1

5 Write out the empirical formula for the compound

C7H90

In conclusion, the empirical formula for the unknown compound is therefore C7H9O

Suppose you have been given the task of distilling a mixture of hexane + toluene. Pure hexane has a refractive index of 1.375 an
miv72 [106K]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

         Refractive index of mixture = 1.456

        Refractive index of hexane = 1.375

        Refractive index of toulene = 1.497

Let mole fraction of hexane = x_{1}

and, mole fraction of toulene = x_{2}

Also,        x_{1} + x_{2} = 1

or,            x_{1} = 1 - x_{2}

Hence, calculate the mole fraction of hexane as follows.

        refractive index mixture= mole fraction hexane × ref index hexane + mole fraction toluene × ref index toluene.

              1.456 = (1 - x_{2}) \times 1.375 + x_{2} \times 1.497

               1.456 = 1.375 - 1.375x_{2} + 1.497x_{2}

               0.081 = 0.122x_{2}

                   x_{2} = \frac{0.081}{0.122}

                                = 0.66

Since,     x_{1} = 1 - x_{2}

                          = 1 - 0.66

                          = 0.34

Thus, we can conclude that mole fraction of hexane in your sample is 0.34.

Suppose you have 250g of gold(I) Chloride. How many grams of Gold do you have?
solniwko [45]

29.26 gram

Explanation:

No of molecules = no of mole × Avogadro's number

No of molecules = mass in gram/ molar mass × Avogadros number

Mass in gram =No of molecules×molar mass / Avogadros number

Mass in gram = 3.012 ×10^23 × 58.5/6.02×10^23

29.26 gram
