By the way it's not mol, it's mole.
The mole is the unit of amount in chemistry. It provides a bridge between the atom and the macroscopic amounts of material that we work with in the laboratory. It allows the chemist to weigh out amounts of two substances, say iron and sulfur, such that equal numbers of atoms of iron and sulfur are obtained. A mole of a substance is defined as:<span>The mass of substance containing the same number of fundamental units as there are atoms in exactly 12.000 g of 12C.</span>
<u>Answer</u>:
"The arrangement of atoms or ions in a crystal " is described by the terms body-centered cubic and face-centered cubic.
<u>Explanation</u>:
Face centred cubic system explains the crystal structure where an atom is present at each cubic corner of the crystal and the centre of each cube face. Meaningfully, a closed packed plane where at each "face of the cube" atoms touch the alongside face diagonals.
Whereas in body centric cube system has the lattice point present at the 8 corners of cell and an additional one at the center of the cell. Thus, both explains how the atom or ions are placed or arranged in a crystal.
How elements are joined in the compound or the way the atoms are arranged (the structure) in a compound
Answer:
An Orbital is best described as the volume of space in which electrons are most often found
Explanation:
As we know atom consists of sub-particles commonly known as protons, neutrons and electrons. The outer space around the nucleus where the probability of finding electrons is maximum is known as orbital. As the electrons are not precisely ordered around the nucleus hence it is not easy to tell the exact position of an electron.
Hence, four quantum numbers are used to locate the position of electrons around the nucleus.
i) Principle Quantum Number:
This number explains the main energy level which tend to increase in energy as the distance of electrons from nucleus are increased. Principle Quantum Numbers are integer number ranging from one to infinity. Hence, increase in this quantum number results in increase of the size of orbital.
ii) Azimuthal Quantum Number:
This Quantum Number explains the direction of particular orbital in 3-dimensional space. Also it is responsible for the shape of an orbital.
iii) Magnetic Quantum Number:
This Quantum Number also tells the direction of orbital in 3D space with respect to x, y and z axis.
iv) Spin Quantum Number:
This Quantum Number tells about the spin direction of an electron about its axis which may be clockwise or anticlockwise.
Answer:
Oxidation: a type of chemical reaction where one or more electrons are lost.
Oxidation State / Number: a number assigned to an atom describing its degree of oxidation, meaning how many electrons it has gained or lost.
Reduction: a type of chemical reaction where one or more electrons are gained.
Oxidation-Reduction Reaction: a chemical reaction where oxidation and reduction occurs simultaneously
Explanation:
Reduction always occurs at cathode
Oxidation always occurs in anode
These two process occurs in same way independent of nature of cell whether voltaic or electrolytic.
