Chemistry

algol [13]3 years ago

4 0

Answer:

D. Ar.

Explanation:

The electron configuration of the atom reflects how the electrons are distributed among the various atomic orbitals. Just as for neutral atoms, we use the Pauli exclusion principle and Hund’s rule in writing the ground-state electron configurations of cations and anions.

Ions formed from atoms of most representative elements have the noble-gas outer electron configuration of ns²np⁶. In the formation of a cation from the atom of a representative element, one or more electrons are removed from the highest occupied n shell. The electron configuration of calcium and its ion is as follows:

Ca: [Ar]4s² Ca²⁺ : [Ar]

A solution of acetic acid has a pH of 3.45. What is the concentration of acetic acid in this solution? Ka for CH3COOH is 1.8×10-

Serjik [45]

Answer:

0.007 M

Explanation:

pH is defined as the negative logarithm of the concentration of hydrogen ions.

Thus,

pH = - log [H⁺]

The expression of the pH of the calculation of weak acid is:-

$pH=-log(\sqrt{k_a\times C})$

Where, C is the concentration = ?

Given, pH = 3.45

So, for $CH_3COOH$ , $K_a=1.8\times 10^{-5}$

$3.45=-log(\sqrt{1.8\times 10^{-5}\times C})$

$\log _{10}\left(\sqrt{1.8\cdot \:10^{-5}C}\right)=-3.45$

C = 0.007 M

Consider the balanced chemical reaction when phosphorus and iodine react to produce phosphorus triodide: 2 P(s) + 3 I2(g) → 2 PI

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

Percent yield of PI3 = 95.4%

Explanation:

This is the reaction:

2P (s) + 3I2 (g) > 2PI3 (g)

Let's determine the moles of iodine that has reacted.

58.6 g / 253.8 g/mol = 0.231 mol

Ratio is 3:2. Let's make a rule of three to state the moles produced at 100 % yield reaction.

3 moles of I2 react to make 2 moles of PI3

0.231 moles of I2 would make (0.231 .2) / 3 = 0.154 moles of PI3

As we have produced 0.147 moles let's determine the percent yield.

(Yield produced / Theoretical yield) . 100 > (0.147 / 0.154) . 100 = 95.4%
