Which atomic orbitals overlap to form the carbon-carbon σ and π bonding molecular orbitals of ethene, H2C=CH2?

Answer:

σ -> 2sp²

π -> 2p

Explanation:

The carbon has valence shell 2s 2p, and, both of them make 3 σ bonds and 1 π bond. The π bond only occurs in multiple bonds.

The σ bonds happen at the hybrids orbitals, which are orbitals formed by the association of the pure orbitals (s, p, d, f). The hybridization occurs to make possible to the atom to do the bonds because the electrons need to be isolated in it.

On the other hand, the π bonds only occur at pure orbitals. The subshell s only has 1 orbital, and the subshell p has 3 orbitals. So, because there are 3 σ bonds, it's necessary 3 hybrids orbitals (1 of s + 2 of p).

The σ bonds happen at the orbital 2sp² and the π bond at the 2p pure orbital.

3. Write DISSOCIATION or IONIZATION equations for the following chemicals:
Romashka [77]

Answer:

a) HNO3 -> H+ + NO3- disassociation of Nitric Acid; to yield a Nitrate ion and a Proton, H+, or as a Hydronium ion H3O+

b) H2S04 -> Disassociation of Sulfuric Acid; simple way- 2H+ + SO4- -

c) H2S hydrogen sulphide in water is an acid; thus H+ HS- disassociation.

d) NaOH -> dissociation of Na+ + OH-; this is complete; sodium hydroxide is deliquescent, meaning it will draw water - EVEN from the air! Strong Base

e) Na2CO3 -> 2Na+ CO3- - Ionization of sodium carbonate - a salt

f) Na2S04 -> 2Na+ + SO4 - - ionization of sodium sulphate - a salt

g) NaCl​ -> Na+ + Cl- ionization of the salt, Sodium Chloride

Explanation:

Salts ionize at different rates; acids or bases dissociate; these are mostly strong acids and NaOH, a strong base.

A hydrogen halide diffuses 1.49 times faster than HBr. This hydrogen halide is
marysya [2.9K]

To solve this problem, we must assume ideal gas behaviour so that we can use Graham’s law:

vA / vB = sqrt (MW_B / MW_A)

where,

<span>vA = speed of diffusion of A  (HBR)</span>

vB = speed of diffusion of B (unknown)

MW_B = molecular weight of B (unkown)

MW_A = molar weight of HBr = 80.91 amu

 

We know from the given that:

vA / vB = 1 / 1.49

 

So,

1/1.49 = sqrt (MW_B / 80.91)

MW_B = 36.44 g/mol

 

Since this unknown is also hydrogen halide, therefore this must be in the form of HX.

HX = 36.44 g/mol , therefore:

x = 35.44 g/mol

 

From the Periodic Table, Chlorine (Cl) has a molar mass of 35.44 g/mol. Therefore the hydrogen halide is:

HCl
