Which of the following is most likely to form multiple (double or triple) bonds? 1. Li 2. Cl 3. N 4. H 5. F
alukav5142 [94]

Answer: Option (3) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Atomic number of lithium is 3 and its electronic distribution is 2, 1. So, to attain stability it will loose an electron and hence, it forms a single bond.

Atomic number of chlorine is 17 and it has 7 valence electrons. Hence, in order to attain stability it will gain one electron and therefore, it forms a single bond only.

Atomic number of nitrogen is 7 and its electronic distribution is 2, 5. Therefore, to attain stability it needs to gain 3 more electrons. Hence, a nitrogen atom is able to form a triple bond and also it is able to form a double bond.

Hydrogen has atomic number 1 and it attains stability by gaining one electron. Therefore, a hydrogen atoms always forms a single bond.

Atomic number of fluorine is 9 and its electronic distribution is 2, 7. To complete its octet it needs to gain one electron. Hence, a fluorine atom always forms a single bond.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options nitrogen is most likely to form multiple (double or triple) bonds.

Which scientist discovered that the atomic number, rather than the atomic weight, is more responsible for the properties of an e
myrzilka [38]

<em>Answer:</em>

  • The correct option is Moseley who has discovered the atomic number.

<em>Explanation:</em>

  • In 1913, H. Moseley discovered a new properties of an element atomic number. He observed that elements in the periodic table can be arranged better according to atomic number rather than atomic mass.
  • The atomic number of any elements is always equal to numbers of electrons in it.

If 40.0 g of HCl react with an excess of magnesium metal, what is the theoretical yield of hydrogen?
Alekssandra [29.7K]

<span>1.    </span>The balanced reaction is:<span>

Mg (s) + 2HCl (aq) --> MgCl 2 (aq) + H 2 (g) 

We are given the amount hydrochloric acid to be used for the reaction. This will be the starting point of the calculation.

40.0 g HCl ( 1 mol HCl / 36.46 g HCl) (1 mol H2 / 2 mol HCl) (2.02 g H2 / 1 mol H2) = 1.11 g H2</span>
