<span>This question has the following options:
A.The two electrons in one orbital must have opposite spin.
B.The two electrons in one orbital must have the same spin.
C.The two electrons in one orbital can have either opposite or the same spin.
D.The two electrons in one orbital repel each other if they have opposite spin.
E.The two electrons in one orbital attract each other if they have the same spin.

The correct answer to this item is letter A. Two electrons in one orbital must have opposite spin. This means that when one electron is assigned to have an up-spin, then the other must have a down-spin.</span>

A scientist finds that a sample of matter contains three types of atoms. The sample can be any of the following, except:
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

The correct answer is C. element

Explanation:

The sample cannot be an element because an element - or <em>elemental substance</em> - cannot be decomposed into simpler substances. Thus, it cannot be composed by differents types of atoms. For example, an element is carbon (C).

As the sample contains <u>three types of atoms</u>, it can be a compound, a molecule or a mixture, because they can be composed by different types of atoms - of different chemical elements. For example, the sample could contain the element carbon (C) combined with other elements, for example oxygen (O) or hydrogen (H), amoing others.

Determine the number of bonding electrons and the number of nonbonding electrons in the structure of xef2.
lys-0071 [83]

Answer: There are 4 bonding electrons and 18 non-bonding electrons.

Explanation: To determine the number of bonding and non-bonding electrons, we will use lewis dot structure for the molecule XeF_2

Lewis dot structure is the structure in which the valence electrons around an atom is shown in a molecule. It also tells us about the number of bonds present between the two neighboring atoms.

Valence electrons of Fluorine = 7

Valence electrons of Xenon = 8

In XeF_2

Total number of valence electrons  = [(1 × 8) + (2 × 7)] = 22 electrons

From, the structure attached below, the number of bonds present = 2. Hence, the bonding electrons will be = 4 electrons

  • Number of non - bonding electrons = Total valence electrons - Number of bonding electrons

Number of non-bonding electrons = 22 - 4 = 18

A closed, frictionless piston-cylinder contains a gas mixture with the following composition on a mass basis: 40% carbon dioxide
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

W=-37.6kJ, therefore, work is done on the system.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the first step is to compute the moles of each gas present in the given mixture, by using the total mixture weight the mass compositions and their molar masses:

n_{CO_2}=0.8kg*0.4*\frac{1kmolCO_2}{44kgCO_2}= 0.00727kmolCO_2\\\\n_{O_2}=0.8kg*0.25*\frac{1kmolO_2}{32kgO_2}=0.00625kmolO_2\\ \\n_{Ne}=0.8kg*0.35*\frac{1kmolNe}{20.2kgNe}=0.0139kmolNe

Next, the total moles:

n_T=0.00727kmol+0.00625kmol+0.0139kmol=0.02742kmol

After that, since the process is isobaric, we can compute the work as:

W=P(V_2-V_1)

Therefore, we need to compute both the initial and final volumes which are at 260 °C and 95 °C respectively for the same moles and pressure (isobaric closed system)

V_1=\frac{n_TRT_1}{P}= \frac{0.02742kmol*8.314\frac{kPa*m^3}{kmol\times K}*(260+273)K}{450kPa}=0.27m^3\\ \\V_2=\frac{n_TRT_2}{P}= \frac{0.02742kmol*8.314\frac{kPa*m^3}{kmol\times K}*(95+273)K}{450kPa}=0.19m^3

Thereby, the magnitude and direction of work turn out:

W=450kPa(0.19m^3-0.27m^3)\\\\W=-37.6kJ

Thus, we conclude that since it is negative, work is done on the system (first law of thermodynamics).

Regards.
