Answer:

There will be 3N electron states in a p band.

Explanation:

In chemistry it is learned that under normal conditions atoms that have 4 electrons in the last valence shell are not stable. Semiconductors fall into this group, but because of the way in which they group their atoms, they can achieve stability by making four covalent chemical bonds, getting 8 electrons in the last shell, and consequently becoming chemically stable. However, semiconductors form Energy Bands. The above question is referring to a semiconductor.

Each energy level in a semiconductor splits, forming a series of atoms next to each other known as energy bands. The number of atoms within these bands will be equal to the sum of all equivalent atoms of the N atoms present in the semiconductor solid. For example, an s band will consist of N atoms and a p band of 3N atoms.

Number of states present in each band will be equal to total of all the states contributed by N atoms.

For instance, s band will contain N states.

Similarly, a p band will contain 3N states.

How many grams of H2O are in 34.2 grams of NAOH<br> Need ASAP

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

15.438g H2O

Explanation:

First you need to find the reaction equation:

2H2O+2Na=2NaOH + H2

Hydrogen is a diatomic molecule so it will have a subscript of 2 on the right hand side. From there we can balance the reaction.

Then we can use stoichiometry:

34.2g NaOH * (1 mol NaOH/39.908g NaOH) * (2 mol H2O/2 mol NaOH) * (18.015g H2O/1 mol H20) = 15.438g H2O

It is important that when you use stoichiometry that all your units cancel out until you only have the unit you want.

You have a 1.153 g sample of an unknown solid acid, HA, dissolved in enough water to make 20.00 mL of solution. HA reacts with K

seropon [69]

Answer:

HA + KOH → KA + H₂O

Explanation:

The unknown solid acid in water can release its proton as this:

HA + H₂O → H₃O⁺ + A⁻

As we have the anion A⁻, when it bonded to the cation K⁺, salt can be generated, so the reaction of HA and KOH must be a neutralization one, where you form water and a salt

HA + KOH → KA + H₂O

It is a neutralization reaction because H⁺ from the acid and OH⁻ from the base can be neutralized as water

SIZIF [17.4K]

There are three carbon and 8 hydrogen present in propane molecule. The Lewis structure of propane is shown as:

Three molecules of such carbon atoms bound to eight molecules with hydrogen atoms make up the organic complex propane molecule.

It is known that carbon has 4 valence electrons and hydrogen has one valence electron. Carbon needs 4 extra electrons to complete its octet hence, it will share its electrons with with 4 hydrogen atom and complete its octet.

Carbon will be formed 4 bond . Three bond with hydrogen and one bond with carbon atom.

2-butanone is converted into 3-methyl-3-hexanol using a grignard reagent prepared from 1-bromopropane and magnesium metal in thf

Andre45 [30]

Answer:

Here's what I get.

Explanation:

At the end of the reaction you will have a solution of the alcohol in THF.

The microdistillation procedure will vary, depending on the specific apparatus you are using, but here is a typical procedure.

Transfer the solution to a conical vial.
Add a boiling stone.
Attach a Hickman head (shown below) and condenser.
Place the assembly in in the appropriate hole of an aluminium block on top of a hotplate stirrer.
Begin stirring and heating at a low level so the THF (bp 63 °C) can distill slowly.
Use a Pasteur pipet to withdraw the THF as needed.
When all the THF has been removed, raise the temperature of the Al block and distill the alcohol (bp 143 °C).
