Answer:

K4[Cr(CN)6] and K4[Mn(CN)6]

Explanation:

The Jahn–Teller effect, sometimes also known as Jahn–Teller distortion, describes the geometrical distortion of molecules and ions that is associated with certain electron configurations. In Jahn Teller effect, more electrons occupy the lower orbital than the upper one, resulting in an overall lowering of the electronic energy. This distortion is typically observed among octahedral complexes where the two axial bonds can be shorter or longer than those of the equatorial bonds. In octahedral complexes, the Jahn–Teller effect is most pronounced when an odd number of electrons occupy the eg orbitals. This situation is most pronounced in complexes with the configurations d9 , low-spin d7 or high-spin d4. These configurations display a strong Jahn Teller effect. Jahn Teller may also be observed if there is a degeneracy due to the electrons in the t2g orbitals. A weak Jahn Teller effect is also observed for d5 species.

K4[Cr(CN)6] contains Cr^2+ which is a d4 specie, hence it exhibits Jahn Teller effect. Also, K4[Mn(CN)6] contains Mn^2+ which is a d5 specie, therefore it also exhibits Jahn Teller effect.

In an aqueous solution of potassium chloride the solute is
Goryan [66]

Answer:

Potassium chloride

Explanation:

A solution is formed by a solvent and one or more solutes.

The solvent is the species that is in major proportion and usually defines the state of aggregation of the solution, while the solute/s is/are in minor proportion.

Also, water is known as the universal solvent, so in any solution containing water, it is considered as the solvent.

Then, in an aqueous solution of potassium chloride the solute is potassium chloride.

sineoko [7]

Answer:

The correct statements that you must check are:

  • The oxygen atom has a greater attraction for electrons than the hydrogen atom does (second statement).

  • The electrons of the covalent bond are not shared equally between the hydrogen and oxygen atoms (fourth statement).

Explanation:

Electronegativity is the relative ability of an atom to pull the electrons in a covalent bond.

Hydrogen has an electronegativity of 2.20 and oxygen has 3.44. That means that oxygen attracts the electrons more strongly than hydrogen does (second statement).

As consequence, the electrons in the covalent bond H - O of water are not shared equally (fourth statement): the electron density will  be higher around the O atoms.

Of course, this discards the statement telling that hydrogen atom attracts electrons much more strongly than the oxygen atom, and the statement telling that hydrogen and oxigen have same electronegativity.

Such difference in electron densities creates a dipole moment, so you discard the last statement (that the water dipole moment is equal to zero).

An unknown substance turns blue litmus paper to red. Which additional test could be used to confirm the substance’s identity? It
Vedmedyk [2.9K]
Blue litmus paper turning red means that the solution where the litmus paper was submerged is an acidic solution with a pH of less than 7. Another verification of the nature of the solution is the turning to red of methyl orange in acidic solutions. The answer then is D.

How many molecules of hypothetical substance b are produced when 29.9g of hypothetical substance a reacts? the molar mass of sub
Andrej [43]
<span>1.15x10^24 molecules of hypothetical substance b Making the assumption that each molecule in hypothetical substance a reacts to produce a single molecule of hypothetical substance b, then the number of molecules of substance b will be the number of moles of substance a multiplied by avogadro's number. So Moles hypothetical substance a = 29.9 g / 15.7 g/mol = 1.904458599 moles This means that we should also have 1.904458599 moles of hypothetical substance b. And to get the number of atoms, multiply by 6.0221409x10^23, so: 1.904458599 * 6.0221409x10^23 = 1.146892x10^24 molecules. Rounding to 3 significant figures gives 1.15x10^24</span>
