Answer:

2. (C) K⁺; 3. (E) Hg⁺; 4. Hg⁺

Explanation:

We must first write the electron configurations of the different species.

(A) Fe²⁺

Fe:     [Ar]4s²3d⁶

Fe²⁺: [Ar]3d⁶

When removing electrons from a transition metal ion, you remove the s electrons first.

(B) Cl

Cl: [Ne]3s²3p⁵

(C) K⁺

K:   [Ar]4s

K⁺: [Ar]

(D) Cs

Cs: [Xe]6s

(E) Hg⁺

Hg:   [Xe]6s²4f¹⁴5d¹⁰

Hg⁺: [Xe]6s4f¹⁴5d¹⁰

2. K⁺ has a noble gas configuration

3. Hg⁺ has electrons in f orbitals.

4. The electron configuration of Au is [Xe]6s4f¹⁴5d¹⁰, not [Xe]6s²4f¹⁴5d⁹, because a filled d subshell is more stable than a filled s subshell.

Thus, Hg⁺ is isoelectronic with Au.

satela [25.4K]

Answer:

See explanation and image attached

Explanation:

This reaction is known as mercuric ion catalyzed hydration of alkynes.

The first step in the reaction is attack of the mercuric ion on the carbon-carbon triple bond, a bridged intermediate is formed. This bridged intermediate is attacked by water molecule to give an organomercury enol. This undergoes keto-enol tautomerism, proton transfer to the keto group yields an oxonium ion, loss of the mercuric ion now gives equilibrium keto and enol forms of the compound. The keto form is favoured over the enol form.

What is a polyprotic buffer?
coldgirl [10]
Buffers - mixtures of conjugate acid and conjugate base at ±1 pH unit from pH = pKa. Resistant to changes in pH in response to small additions of H+ or OH-. ... Polyprotic acids - dissociation of each H+ can be treated separately if the pKa values are different
