Mama L [17]

Answer:He 1+

Explanation:

Both Hydrogen atom and helium ion are one electron species. Hence we expect the spectrum of the helium ion to closely resemble that of hydrogen atom also containing one valence electron.

Write a balanced half-reaction describing the reduction of gaseous dioxygen to aqueous oxide anions.
maksim [4K]

<u>Answer:</u> The balanced half reaction is written below.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Reduction reaction is defined as the chemical reaction in which an atom gains electrons. The oxidation number of the atom gets reduced during this reaction.

X^{n+}+ne^-\rightarrow X

When oxygen gas is reduced to oxide ions, the number of electron transferred are 2

The chemical equation for the reduction of oxygen gas to oxide ions follows:

O_2+2e^-\rightarrow 2O^{2-}

Hence, the balanced half reaction is written above.

How do the bonding and antibonding MOs formed from a given pair of AOs compare to each other with respect to:
Ksenya-84 [330]

Bonding MO's have lower energy than antibonding MO's. The bonding MO's lower energy, even lower than its constituent atomic orbitals, accounts for the stability of a molecule in relation to its individual atoms. However, the sum of energy of the MO's must equal the sum of energy of the AO's.

<h3>What is atomic orbital?</h3>

An atomic orbital is a function in atomic theory and quantum mechanics that describes the location and wave-like behavior of an electron in an atom. This formula can be used to calculate the likelihood of locating any atom's electron in any given location surrounding the nucleus. The phrase atomic orbital can also refer to the actual region or place where the electron is projected to be present given the orbital's mathematical form.

Each orbital in an atom is defined by a set of values of the three quantum numbers n, l, and ml, which correspond to the energy, angular momentum, and an angular momentum vector component of the electron, respectively (magnetic quantum number).

A 25.0 mL sample of an acetic acid solution is titrated with a 0.175 M NaOH solution. The equivalence point is reached when 37.5
Soloha48 [4]
This is all i know
First of all, let's write the equation of the reaction.
CH₃COOH + NaOH ⇒ CH₃COONa + H₂O
The formula to be used here is CaVa/CbVb = na/nb
where Ca is the concentration of the acid (?)
Cb is the concentration of the base (0.175M)
Va is the volume of the acid (25 mL)
Vb is the volume of the base (37.5 mL)
na is the number of moles of acid (1)
nb is the number of moles of base (1)
Ca × 25/0.175 × 37.5 = 1/1
Ca = 0.175 × 37.5 × 1 /25 ×1
Ca = 0.263 M
The concentration of the acid in the sample was 0.263 M

How many valence electrons are in an atom of strontium (Sr)? Consult the periodic table. A. 5 B. 2 C. 47.90 D. 22
Kaylis [27]

The smallest and the basic particle of a chemical element is said to be an atom. It is made up of three subatomic particles that is electrons, protons and neutrons.  The neutrons and protons are present in the nucleus of an atom whereas electrons are present in the orbits around the nucleus of the atom.  There are several shells in the orbital depending on the atomic number.  The electrons which are present in the outermost shell are said to be valence electrons.

They can be determined by the electronic configuration of the element.

The atomic number of strontium, Sr is 38. The electronic configuration of strontium, Sr is:

1s^{2}2s^{2}2p^{6}3s^{2}3p^{6}4s^{2}3d^{10}4p^{6}5s^{2}

From the electronic configuration it is clear that the outermost shell of strontium, Sr is 5s. So, the number of valence electrons in strontium, Sr is 2.

Hence, there are 2 valence electrons in an atom of strontium (Sr).
