Direct electron transfer from a a singlet reduced species to a triplet oxidizing species is quantum-mechanically forbidden.
<h3><u>Transfer from singlet to triplet:</u></h3>
- Either an excited singlet state or an excited triplet state will occur when an electron in a molecule with a singlet ground state is stimulated (through radiation absorption) to a higher energy level.
- All electron spins in a molecule electronic state known as a singlet are coupled.
- In other words, the ground state electron and the stimulated electron's spin are still coupled (a pair of electrons in the same energy level must have opposite spins, per the Pauli exclusion principle).
- The excited electron and ground state electron are parallel in a triplet state because they are no longer coupled (same spin).
- It is less likely that a triplet state would arise when the molecule absorbs radiation since excitation to a triplet state necessitates an additional "forbidden" spin transfer.

Answer:
Sulfuric acid has a higher density than water, which causes the acid formed at the plates during charging to flow downward and collect at the bottom of the battery.
Answer:
In general, liquids tend to get “thinner” when their temperature increases. For example, honey and oil tend to flow better at higher temperatures. Therefore, increasing temperature decreases viscosity. In general, the liquids tend to expand when their temperature increases
Explanation:
Answer:
0.9307 moles have been introduced into the bag.
Explanation:
Pressure of the gas within the bag,P = 1.00 atm
Temperature of the gas remains at room temperature,T=20.0 °C = 293.15 K
Volume of the gas in the bag = V = 22.4 L
Number of moles of gas = n
Using an ideal gas equation:
n = 0.9307 moles
0.9307 moles have been introduced into the bag.
