Of the atoms listed below, which one will have at least one electron in its d orbital?
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

D. Cr

Explanation:

In order to determine which atom has at least one electron in its d orbital, we have to write their theoretical electron configurations.

  • ₁₂Mg 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s²
  • ₁₉K 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s¹
  • ₁₆S 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁴
  • ₂₄Cr 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s² 3d⁴

Cr has 4 electrons in d orbitals. Cr belongs to the d-block in the periodic table.

How many moles of magnesium chloride can be formed from 4.86 g of Mg and 21.27 g of Cl2?
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

Moles of magnesium chloride can be produced are 0.2 moles

Explanation:

The reaction of Mg with Cl2 is:

Mg + Cl₂ → MgCl₂

<em>Where 1 mole of Mg reacts per mole of Cl₂ to produce MgCl₂.</em>

<em />

As the reaction is 1:1, we need to convert the mass of both Mg and Cl₂ to moles. The lower number of moles will determine the moles of MgCl₂ that will be produced:

<em>Moles Mg -Molar mass: 24.3g/mol-:</em>

4.86g * (1mol / 24.3g) = 0.2 moles Mg

<em>Moles Cl₂ -Molar mass: 24.3g/mol-:</em>

21.27g * (1mol / 70.9g) = 0.3 moles Cl₂

As moles of Mg < moles of Cl₂, Mg is limiting reactant and moles of magnesium chloride can be produced are 0.2 moles

An aqueous KNO3 solution is made using 76.6 g of KNO3 diluted to a total solution volume of 1.84 L. (Assume a density of 1.05 g/
defon

Answer:

The answer to your question is Molarity = 0.41

Explanation:

Data

mass of KNO₃ = 76.6 g

volume = 1.84 l

density = 1.05 g/ml

Process

1.- Calculate the molecular mass of KNO₃

molecular mass = 39 + 14 + (16 x 3) = 101 g

2.- Calculate the number of moles

                      101 g of KNO₃  --------------- 1 mol

                       76.6 g of KNO₃ ------------  x

                        x = (76.6 x 1) / 101

                        x = 0.76 moles

3.- Calculate molarity

Molarity = \frac{number of moles}{volume}

Substitution

Molarity = \frac{0.76}{1.84}

Result

Molarity = 0.41
