The options for the given question are given below.

a) the location where there is zero probability of finding the electron

b) that the electron’s location can be precisely determined

c) that Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle is violated

d) the distance from the nucleus at which the electron is most likely to be found

Answer : The correct option is d "the distance from the nucleus at which the electron is most likely to be found"

Explanation :

The probability distribution curve is the plot of density function ( represented by y axis) vs the distance of electron from the nucleus ( represented by x axis).

The peak of the curve shows the maximum density of finding an electron. The corresponding value on x axis therefore represents the distance at which this maximum density can be located.

Therefore we can say that the peak of a probability curve for an electron in an atom indicate the distance from the nucleus at which the electron is most likely to be found.

Calculate the value of the equilibrium constant, Kc , for the equilibrium shown below, if 0.124 moles of NO, 0.0240 mole of H2,
sdas [7]

the reaction is

2NO(g) + 2H2(g) <—> N2(g) + 2H2O (g)

Kc = [N2] [ H2O]^2 / [NO]^2 [ H2]^2

Given

moles of NO = 0.124 therefore [NO] = moles /volume = 0.124 /2 = 0.062

moles of H2 = 0.0240 , therefore [H2] = moles / volume = 0.0240 / 2 = 0.012

moles of N2 = 0.0380 , therefore [N2] = moles / volume = 0.0380 / 2 = 0.019

moles of H2O  = 0.0276 , therefore [H2O] = moles / volume = 0.0276 / 2 = 0.0138

Kc = (0.019) ( 0.0138)^2 / (0.062)^2 ( 0.012)^2 = 6.54
