The p subshell can hold up to eight electrons in an atom (2 points) True or false?

Chemistry
2 answers:
hoa [83]3 years ago

Answer: The statement is false

Explanation:

Electrons occupy a region in atoms known as orbitals or subs hell.  These orbitals include

I) S-orbital: it can occupy a maximum of two electrons

II) P-orbital: It occupies a maximum of six electrons

III) D-orbital: it occupies a maximum of ten electrons

F and G-orbitals as examples of other orbitals present.

A good illustration of the 6 electrons occupied by the P-subshell is seen in Sodium (Na) with atomic number of 11

Na = 1s2, 2S2 2p6, 3s1

Note: extra electrons are transferred to the next orbital

Increasing the temperature increases the vaporization rate of a liquid because the excess energy is used to break covalent bonds
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

False.  The molecules of liquid are hold in the liquid state due to intermolecular forces or Van de Waals forces , without affecting the molecule itself and its atomic bonds (covalent bonds).  When the temperature increases the kinetic energy of the molecules is higher , therefore they have more possibilities to escape from the attractive intermolecular forces and go to the gas state.

Note however that this is caused because the intermolecular forces are really weak compared to covalent bonds, therefore is easier to break the first one first and go to the gas state before any covalent bond breaks ( if it happens).

A temperature increase can increase vaporisation rate if any reaction is triggered that decomposes the liquid into more volatile compounds , but nevertheless, this effect is generally insignificant compared with the effect that temperature has in vaporisation due to Van der Waals forces.

The product of the nitration reaction will have a nitro group at which position with respect to the methyl group? Group of answe
zimovet [89]

Answer:

Mostly Para

Explanation:

First, let's assume that the molecule is the toluene (A benzene with a methyl group as radical).

Now the nitration reaction is a reaction in which the nitric acid in presence of sulfuric acid, react with the benzene molecule, to introduce the nitro group into the molecule. The nitro group is a relative strong deactiviting group and is metha director, so, further reactions that occur will be in the metha position.

Now, in this case, the methyl group is a weak activating group in the molecule of benzene, and is always ortho and para director for the simple fact that this molecule (The methyl group) is a donor of electrons instead of atracting group of electrons. Therefore for these two reasons, when the nitration occurs,it will go to the ortho or para position.

Now which position will prefer to go? it's true it can go either ortho or para, however, let's use the steric hindrance principle. Although the methyl group it's not a very voluminous and big molecule, it still exerts a little steric hindrance, and the nitro group would rather go to a position where no molecule is present so it can attach easily. It's like you have two doors that lead to the same place, but in one door you have a kid in the middle and the other door is free to go, you'll rather pass by the door which is free instead of the door with the kid in the middle even though you can pass for that door too. Same thing happens here. Therefore the correct option will be mostly para.

Explain why an indicator is used in titration
stellarik [79]

Answer:

Titrations. Because a noticeable pH change occurs near the equivalence point of acid-base titrations, an indicator can be used to signal the end of a titration. When selecting an indicator for acid-base titrations, choose an indicator whose pH range falls within the pH change of the reaction.

Hope it helped!!

What is the molarity of a 1.44 (m/v)% solution of an HCOOOH (Formic acid)?
AlexFokin [52]

This problem is providing the mass-volume percent of a formic acid solution so its molarity is required and found to be 0.313 M after the following calculations.

<h3>Molarity</h3>

In chemistry, units of concentration provide a measurable understanding of the relationship between the relative amounts of both solute and solvent. In the case of molarity, one must relate moles of solute and liters of solution as follows:

M=\frac{mol\ solute}{Volume\ solution \ in \ L}

In such a way, when given this mass-volume percent of 1.44% for the formic acid in the solution, one can assume there is 100 mL of solution and 1.44 g of solute (formic acid), which means one must convert the volume to liters and the mass to moles with:

mol\ solute=\frac{1.44g}{46.03g/mol} =0.0313mol\\\\Volume\ in \liters: 100mL*\frac{1L}{1000mL}=0.100L

Finally, we plug in these numbers in the equation for the calculation of molarity:

M=\frac{0.0313mol}{0.100L}\\\\M=0.313M
