Answer: Vanadium -23 has an electronic configuration of

[Ar]3d3 4s2 (e)

Explanation:

Vanadium has an atomic number of 23 . The total number of electrons in all the subshells will also be 23 .

For (a) [ Ar] has an 18 electrons already, adding 2 from 3s subshell 7 from 3p subshell makes it 27 electrons which is greater than 18. Also, it doesn't conform with the rule of electronic configuration.

(b) [ Ar] has an 18 electrons already, adding, adding 4 from 3s orbital and 5 from 3p orbital makes it 27 which is greater than 23.

(c) [ Ne] has an 10 electrons already, adding, 3 from 3s and 3 from 3p makes it 16. Which is less than 23

(d) [ Ne] has an 10 electrons already, adding, 4 from 3s and 1 from 3p makes it 14 . Which is less than 23.

(e)[ Ar] has an 18 electrons already, adding, 3 from 3d subshell and 2 from 4s subshell makes it 23.

Therefore [Ar]3d3 4s2 is the condesed electronic configuration of Vanadium.

Which of the followings is true about G0'? A. G0' can be determined using Keq' B. G0' indicates if a reaction can occur under no
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

A and D are true , while B and F statements are false.

Explanation:

A) True.  Since the standard gibbs free energy is

ΔG = ΔG⁰ + RT*ln Q

where Q= [P1]ᵃ.../([R1]ᵇ...) , representing the ratio of the product of concentration of chemical reaction products P and the product of concentration of chemical reaction reactants R

when the system reaches equilibrium ΔG=0 and Q=Keq

0 = ΔG⁰ + RT*ln Q → ΔG⁰ = (-RT*ln Keq)

therefore the first equation also can be expressed as

ΔG = RT*ln (Q/Keq)

thus the standard gibbs free energy can be determined using Keq

B) False. ΔG⁰ represents the change of free energy under standard conditions . Nevertheless , it will give us a clue about the ΔG around the standard conditions .For example if ΔG⁰>>0 then is likely that ΔG>0 ( from the first equation) if the temperature or concentration changes are not very distant from the standard conditions

C) False. From the equation presented

ΔG⁰ = (-RT*ln Keq)

ΔG⁰>0 if Keq<1 and ΔG⁰<0 if Keq>1

for example, for a reversible reaction  ΔG⁰ will be <0 for forward or reverse reaction and the ΔG⁰ will be >0 for the other one ( reverse or forward reaction)

D) True. Standard conditions refer to

T= 298 K

pH= 7

P= 1 atm

C= 1 M for all reactants

Water = 55.6 M

What is the value of freezing point depression of a solution of 15.0g of NaCl in 250g of water?
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

-3.82ºC is the freezing point of solution

Explanation:

We work with the Freezing point depression to solve the problem

ΔT = m . Kf . i

ΔT = Freezing point of pure solvent - freezing point of solution

Let's find out m, molality (moles of solute in 1kg of solvent)

15 g / 58.45 g/mol = 0.257 moles of NaCl

NaCl(s) → Na⁺ (aq) + Cl⁻(aq)

i = 2 (Van't Hoff factor, numbers of ions dissolved)

m = mol /kg → 0.257 mol / 0.250kg = 1.03 m

Kf = Cryoscopic constant → 1.86 ºC/m (pure, for water)

0ºC - Tºf = 1.03m . 1.86ºC/m . 2

Tºf  = -3.82ºC
