Answer:
the HOMO-LUMO energy difference in ethylene is greater than that of cis,trans−1,3−cyclooctadiene
Explanation:
The λmax is the wavelength of maximum absorption. We could use it to calculate the HOMO-LUMO energy difference as follows:
For ethylene
E= hc/λ= 6.63×10^-34×3×10^8/170×10^-9= 1.17×10^-18J
For cis,trans−1,3−cyclooctadiene
E= hc/λ=6.63×10^-34×3×10^8/230×10^-9=8.6×10^-19J
Therefore, the HOMO-LUMO energy difference in ethylene is greater than that of cis,trans−1,3−cyclooctadiene
Answer:
Explanation:
We are given the formula:
This is a molecular formula, because it contains nonmetals.
1. Name the first element
The first element is phosphorous (P). Since this is the first element and there is only one, we don't need a prefix.
2. Second element
The second element is chlorine (Cl). It has a subscript of 5, so we must add the prefix of <u>hepta</u>-.
- Phosphorous heptachlorine
Add the ending of -ide.
- Phosphorous heptachloride
The prefix used for the second element is hepta. The compound name is phosphorous heptachloride.
<span>The surface area is 109.3 square centimeters or 0.01093 square meters. The area formula requires that we use the radius of the disc. We can find the radius by diving the diameter by 2, so radius = 11.8/2 or 5.9 cm. We can use 3.14 as an approximation for π. The surface area is 3.14 * (5.9*5.9).
Since the diameter is given in cm, the surface area units are in square centimeters. To convert to meters, divide any measurement in centimeters by 100, but we need to convert to "square" meters, so we need to divide our square centimeters by 100 * 100, or by 10,000. Dividing 109.3 by 10,000 results in 0.01093 square "meters".</span>
To count the number of valence electrons we look at the electronic configuration and add the electrons form the electronic shell with the highest principal quantum number.
Rb: [Kr] 5s¹ - 1 valence electron
Xe: [Kr] 5s² 4d¹⁰ 5p⁶ - 8 valence electrons
Sb: [Kr] 5s² 4d¹⁰ 5p³ - 5 valence electrons
I: [Kr] 5s² 4d¹⁰ 5p⁵ - 7 valence electrons
In: [Kr] 5s² 4d¹⁰ 5p¹ - 3 valence electrons
Rank from most to fewest valence electrons:
Xe > I > Sb > In > Rb
