Explain why the quantum number set (2, 2, -1, -½) is not possible for an electron in an atom.

Chemistry
1 answer:
rosijanka [135]3 years ago

Answer is: it is not possible, because orbital (azimunthal) quantum number cannot be 2.

The principal quantum number (n) is one of four quantum numbers which are assigned to each electron in an atom to describe that electron's state.

For principal quantum number n=2:

1) azimuthal quantum number (l) can be l = 0...n-1:

l = 0, 1.  

The azimuthal quantum number determines its orbital angular momentum and describes the shape of the orbital.  

2) magnetic quantum number (ml) can be ml = -l...+l.

ml = -1, 0, +1.

Magnetic quantum number specify orientation of electrons in magnetic field and number of electron states (orbitals) in subshells.

3) the spin quantum number (ms), is the spin of the electron.

ms = +1/2, -1/2.

1) The heat of combustion for the gases hydrogen, methane and ethane are −285.8, −890.4 and −1559.9 kJ/mol respectively at 298K.
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

The enthalpy of the reaction is 64.9 kJ/mol.

Explanation:

H_2 + \frac{1}{2}O_2\rightarrow H_2O,\Delta H_1 =-285.8 kJ..[1]

CH_4 + 2O_2\rightarrow CO_2 + 2H_2O,\Delta H_2 =-890.4 kJ..[2]

C_2H_6 + \frac{7}{2}O_2\rightarrow 2CO_2 + 3H_2O,\Delta H_3= -1559.9 kJ..[3]

2CH_4(g)\rightarrow C_2H_6(g) + H_2(g),\Delta H_4=?..[4]

2 × [2] - [1]- [3] = [4]  (Using Hess's law)

\Delta H_4=2\times \Delta H_2 -\Delta H_1 -\Delta H_3

\Delta H_4=2\times (-890.4 kJ)-(-285.8 kJ) -(-1559.9 kJ)

\Delta H_4=64.9 kJ/mol

The enthalpy of the reaction is 64.9 kJ/mol.

how many moles of an ideal gas would occupy a 25.0 liter container when the temperature is 295 K and the pressure is 0.850 atm?
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

Required number of moles of ideal gas is 0.877 moles.

Explanation:

Pressure (P) = 0.850 atm

Temperature (T) = 295 K

Volume (V) = 25 ltr

Universal gas constant (R) = 0.0821

no of moles (n) = ?

we have the ideal gas equation as:

                           PV= nRT

                or, 0.850× 25 = n × 0.0821 × 295

                or, n = 0.877 moles

Hence the required number of moles of an ideal gas is 0.877 moles.
