In which orbital would the valence electrons for carbon be placed

1 answer:

4 0

Carbon have 4 valence electron

The electron configuration of C is : 1s2 2s2 2ps

the outer most s and p orbital contains 4 electrons and these are the valence electron of C atom

Key: to determine the valence electron of an element, you have to refer to the group it is located in, in the periodic table. (C is in group 4 (or 14) so VE = 4)

hope its clear enough

The gas OF2 can be produced from the electrolysis of an aqueous solution of KF, as shown in the equation below.

Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

A) 6.48 g of OF₂ at the anode.

Explanation:

The gas OF₂ can be obtained through the oxidation of F⁻ (inverse reaction of the reduction presented). The standard potential of the oxidation is the opposite of the standard potential of the reduction.

H₂O(l) + 2 F⁻(aq) → OF₂(g) + 2 H⁺(aq) + 4 e⁻ E° = -2.15 V

Oxidation takes place in the anode.

We can establish the following relations:

1 Faraday is the charge corresponding to 1 mole of e⁻.
1 mole of OF₂ is produced when 4 moles of e⁻ circulate.
The molar mass of OF₂ is 54.0 g/mol.

The mass of OF₂ produced when 0.480 F pass through an aqueous KF solution is:

$0.480F.\frac{1mole^{-} }{1F} .\frac{1molOF_{2}}{4mole^{-} } .\frac{54.0gOF_{2}}{1molOF_{2}} =6.48gOF_{2}$

Carbon monoxide (CO) is a poisonous gas because it binds very strongly to the oxygen carrier hemoglobin in blood. A concentratio

velikii [3]

<u>Answer:</u> The amount of CO that is occupied in the room is $1.98\times 10^3L$

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Concentration of CO = $8.00\times 10^2ppm=800pm$ by volume

This means that $800\mu L\text{ or }800\times 10^{-6}$ of CO is present in 1 L of blood

To calculate the volume of cuboid, we use the equation:

$V=lbh$

where,

V = volume of cuboid

l = length of cuboid = 10.99 m

b = breadth of cuboid = 18.97 m

h = height of cuboid = 11.89 m

$V=10.99\times 18.97\times 11.89=2478.83m^3$

Converting this into liters, by using conversion factor:

$1m^3=1000L$

So, $2478.83m^3=2.479\times 10^6L$

Applying unitary method:

In 1 L of blood, the amount of CO present is $800\times 10^{-6}$

So, in $2.479\times 10^6L$ of blood, the amount of CO present will be = $\frac{800\times 10^{-6}}{1}\times 2.479\times 10^{6}=1983.2L=1.98\times 10^3L$

Hence, the amount of CO that is occupied in the room is $1.98\times 10^3L$

When 8.2 grams of LiBr are dissolved in enough water to create a 150-gram solution, what is the solution's concentration, expres

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

5.46% is the percent by mass concentration of the solution.

Explanation:

Mass of LiBr= 8.2 g(Solute)

Mass of solution = 150 g (Solution)

Mass of solution = Mass of solute + Mass of solvent

Mass of solute < Mass of solvent (Always)

Mass of water = 150 g - 8.2 g = 141.8 g (solvent)

Mass percentage is given as:

$\frac{\text{mass of solute}}{\text{mass of solution}}\times 100$

$Mass\%=\frac{8.2 g}{150 g}\times 100=5.46\%$

5.46% is the percent by mass concentration of the solution.

What is the pH of a 0.222 M acetic acid solution?

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

pH=2.7

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Acetic acid = weak acid

$\tt [H^+]=\sqrt{Ka.M}$

Ka = acid ionization constant

M = molarity

Ka for Acetic acid(CH₃COOH) : 1.8 x 10⁻⁵

$\tt [H^+]=\sqrt{1.8\times 10^{-5}\times 0.222}\\\\=0.001998=1.998\times 10^{-3}$

$\tt pH=3-log~1.998=2.7$

What is the mass in grams of one mole of He?

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

One gram helium gas is equal to the 4.002602 g/mole

Explanation:

Helium gas is a gas or chemical element. The symbol of helium gas is He and the atomic number of this gas is 2. This gas is colorless, odorless, and tasteless. It is a non-toxic gas. It is found in the periodic table in the first place.

Helium is a very lightest gas and very abundant in nature in the universe. It is present in the universe around 24 percent. Helium is also called by another name that titan of sun. This is detected by the yellow line. The liquid form of helium gas is called cryogenics. This helium gas is used in lifting balloons and airplanes.
