Chemistry

Answer : Core electrons = 10

Valence electrons = 8

Explanation :

Core electrons : They are the electrons in an atom that do not participate in bonding.

Valence electrons : They are electrons in an atom that participate in bonding.

Electronic configuration : It is defined as the representation of electrons around the nucleus of an atom.  

Number of electrons in an atom are determined by the electronic configuration.

The electronic configuration of argon (Ar) will be:

1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^6

The electronic configuration of neon (Ne) will be:

1s^22s^22p^6

So, the electronic configuration of argon (Ar) in noble gas notation will be:

[Ne]3s^23p^6

In the given electronic configuration of argon, the electrons present in 1st shell and 2nd shell are the core electrons and the electrons present in 3rd shell are the valence electrons. That means,

Number of core electrons = 2 + 2 + 6 = 10

Number of valence electrons = 2 + 6 = 8

Which reactant is unlikely to produce the indicated product upon strong heating?
Ilya [14]

2-Methyl-4-oxo-pentanoic acid  is unlikely to produce 2-Methyl-3-butanone upon strong heating.

Upon heating, the β ketoacid becomes unstable and decarboxylates, leading to the formation of the methyl ketone.

A carboxylic acid is an organic acid that contains a carboxyl group (C(=O)OH) attached to an R-group. The general formula of a carboxylic acid is R−COOH or R−CO2H, with R referring to the alkyl, alkenyl, aryl, or other group.

Carboxylic acids occur widely. Important examples include the amino acids and fatty acids. Deprotonation of a carboxylic acid gives a carboxylate anion.

Full question :

Q.  Which reactant is unlikely to produce the indicated product upon strong heating?

  • A) 2,2-Dimethylpropanedioic acid 2-methylpropanoic acid
  • B) 2-Ethylpropanedioic acid Butanoic acid
  • C) 2-Methyl-3-oxo-pentanoic acid 3-Pentanone
  • D) 2-Methyl-4-oxo-pentanoic acid 2-Methyl-3-butanone
  • E) 4-Methyl-3-oxo-heptanoic acid 3-Methyl-2-hexanone

Hence, option (D) is correct.

Which of the following most likely requires intermolecular forces?
castortr0y [4]
<span>In the question ' which of the following most likely require intermolecular force', options A and C given are definitely not the correct answers. Among the items listed in the questions, the one that will most likely required an intermolecular force is a rock maintaing its solid shape. Thus, the correct option is B. Intermolecular forces are forces which maintain chemical interactions between molecules of a particular susbstance and other types of paticles that may be present in the substance. Rocks are made up of differet particles and their structures are held together by different types of intermolecular forces depending on the types of particles present in the rock. Intermolecular forces can only occur among molecules and other particles in a compound that is why the other two options are wrong. Intermolecular force can either be attractive or repulsive. Attraction occurs between molecules of opposite charges, that is, positive and negative charges while repulsion occurs between particles of like charges, for intstance, between positive and positive charges. The Intermolecular forces that exist in a compound maintaings the integrity of the structure of that compound. Intermolecular forces in compounds exist in different forms, we have electrovalent bonds, covalent bonds, hydrogen bond, vander waals forces, etc. The type of molecules that exist in a compound will determine the type of intermolecular forces that will exist among the molecules of that substance. Electrovalent bonds are the strongest type of intermolecular force and it normally exist between metals and non metals. Covalent bonds involved sharing of electrons among the participating elements while vander waals forces are the weakest form of intermolecular forces. Forces are often required to break intermolecular forces apart. Breaking the intermolecular forces apart will destroy the structure of the substance inlvolved.</span>

What amount (moles) is represented by each of these samples?
Zinaida [17]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

                  a)  Moles of Caffeine  =  1.0 × 10⁻⁴ mol

                  b) Moles of Ethanol   =  4.5 × 10⁻³ mol

<h3>Solution:</h3>

Data Given:

                  Mass of Caffeine  =  20 mg  =  0.02 g

                  M.Mass of Caffeine  =  194.19 g.mol⁻¹

                  Molecules of Ethanol  =  2.72 × 10²¹

Calculate Moles of Caffeine as,

                               Moles  =  Mass ÷ M.Mass

Putting values,

                               Moles  =  0.02 g ÷ 194.19 g.mol⁻¹

                                Moles  =  1.0 × 10⁻⁴ mol

Calculate Moles of Ethanol as,

                                                         As we know one mole of any substance contains 6.022 × 10²³ particles (atoms, ions, molecules or formula units). This number is also called as Avogadro's Number.

The relation between Moles, Number of Particles and Avogadro's Number is given as,

                          Number of Moles  =  Number of Molecules ÷ 6.022 × 10²³

Putting values,

                          Number of Moles  =  2.72 × 10²¹ Molecules ÷ 6.022 × 10²³

                          Number of Moles  =  4.5 × 10⁻³ Moles
