What are 3 ways living creatures use carbohydrates

A sample of matter was given the following description: The sample of the pure substance is blue in color with an octahedral sha

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

A crystalline solid

Explanation:

Most solids form with a regular arrangement of their particles because the overall attractive interactions between particles are maximized, and the total intermolecular energy is minimized, when the particles pack in the most efficient manner. The regular arrangement at an atomic level is often reflected at a macroscopic level. Liquids dont use to have this kind of arrangements or shapes.

A sample of PCl5(g) was placed in an otherwise empty flask at an initial pressure of 0.500 atm and a temperature above 500 K. Ov

tia_tia [17]

Answer:

Kp = 0.81666

Explanation:

Pressure of PCl₅ = 0.500 atm

Considering the ICE table for the equilibrium as:

PCl₅ (g) ⇔ PCl₃ (g) + Cl₂ (g)

t = o 0.500

t = eq -x x x

--------------------------------------------- --------------------------

Moles at eq: 0.500-x x x

Given the pressure of PCl₅ at equilibrium = 0.150 atm

Thus, 0.500 - x = 0.150

x = 0.350 atm

The expression for the equilibrium constant is:

$K_p=\frac {P_{PCl_3}P_{[Cl_2}}{P_{PCl_5}}$

So,

$K_p=\frac{x^2}{0.500-x}$

x = 0.350 atm

Thus,

$K_p=\frac{{0.350}^2}{0.500-0.350}$

In which are the ionic solids ranked in order of increasing melting point?

abruzzese [7]

Answer:A

Explanation:

The melting points of solids depend in the relative sizes of ions in the ionic lattice. The smaller the relative sizes of the ions, the higher the lattice energy and the stronger the lattice hence higher melting point. Comparing relative ionic sizes, fluoride ion is lesser in size than chloride ion hence NaF has a higher melting point than NaCl.

1. Using the Slater rule, determine the effective nuclear charge of platinum.

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

Z* = 3.55

Explanation:

Slater rule says that:

Z*= Z - S

Z* be the nuclear effective charge

Z is the nuclear charge

S is the shielding constant

First we write the electronic configuration of platinum: $1s^{2} 2s^{2} 2p^{6} 3s^{2} 3p^{6} 3d^{10} 4s^{2} 4p^{6} 4d^{10} 5s^{2} 5p^{6} 4f^{14} 5d^{9} 6s^{1}$

The first Slater rule says that we need to group:

$(1s^{2}) (2s, 2p)^{8} (3s, 3p)^{8} (3d^{10}) (4s, 4p)^{8} (4d^{10}) (5s, 5p)^{8} (4f^{14}) (5d^{9}) (6s^{1})$

The second rule says that the electrons to the right are not shielding, but we are going to solve the exercise for the last level (6s), so we don't have electrons to the right.

For the third rule we have two considerations, if is ns or np and if is nd or nf:

For our case, we have an electro that is in ns, so the rule says that

-electrons within same group shield 0.35, except the 1s which shield 0.30

-electrons within the n-1 group shield 0.85

-electrons within the n-2 or lower groups shield 1.00

Now we can proceed with the calculation:

The first consideration in the third rule does not apply as we only have one electron on this level.

The second consideration will be as follow for the level 5, where we have 17 electrons.

Finally the third consideration will be for levels 1, 2, 3 and 4, where we have 14 for 4f, 10 for 4d, 8 for 4s and 4p, 10 for 3d, 8 for 3s and 3p, 8 for 2s and 2p and finally 2 for 1s, which gives 60 electrons.

So the result for S=(60*1.00 + 17*0.85) = 74.45

And the equation is: Z* = 78 - 74.45

So Z* = 3.55
