As a result of the transfer of an electron from a less electronegative atom to a more electronegative atom,

Chemistry
1 answer:
Viktor [21]2 years ago
4 0

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option d.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Electronegativity is defined as the tendency of an element to attract the shared pair of electron towards itself in a compound.

When electron is transferred from less electronegative atom to more electronegative atom.

The atom which is more electronegative gains electron and undergoes reduction reaction.

Reduction reaction is defined as the reaction in which an atom gains electrons. The oxidation number of the atom gets reduced during this reaction.

X^{n+}+ne^-\rightarrow X

During the transfer of electrons, energy is released when an electron looses is potential energy during the transfer.

Hence, the correct answer is Option d.

Fluorine has an atomic number of 9, how many electron shells does it have?
aleksandr82 [10.1K]
2 shells because if you do the electronic configuration: 
 2,7 which adds up to 9
7 stands for the group it in and it also stands for how many electrons are in the outer shell.
the amount of spaces stands for which period its in therefore it in period 2

What nuclide undergoes fission to form molybdenum-103, atomic number 42, tin-131, atomic number 50, and two neutrons?
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is Pu, 234.

Explanation:

In the given case, let us consider the reactant as X. Now the mass number (balanced) on both the sides will be,

Mass of X = Mass of Molybdenum + Mass of Tin + Mass of neutrons

M = 1 * 103 + 1 * 131 + 2 * 0

M = 234

Now the atomic number (balanced) on both the sides,

Atomic number of X = Atomic number of Molybdenum + Atomic number of Tin + Atomic number of neutrons

A = 1*42 + 1*50 + 2*1

A = 94

The atomic number 94 is for the element Plutonium, whose symbol is Pu. Thus, the reactant is 234-Pu.

Give regents and mechanism
Kryger [21]

Answer:

Reagents: 1) BH_3 2) H_2_O2, OH^-

Mechanism: Hydroboration

Explanation:

In this case, we have a <u>hydration of alkene</u>s reaction. But, in this example, we have an <u>anti-Markovnikov reaction</u>. In other words, the "OH" is added in the least substituted carbon. Therefore we have to choose an anti-Markovnikov reaction: <u>"hydroboration"</u>.

The <u>first step</u> of this reaction is the addition of borane (BH_3) to the double bond. Then in the <u>second step</u>, we have the deprotonation of the hydrogen peroxide, to obtain the peroxide anion. In the <u>third step</u>, the peroxide anion attacks the molecule produced in the first step to produce a complex compound in which we have a bond "BH_2-O-OH". In <u>step number 4</u> we have the migration of the C-B bond to oxygen. Then in <u>step number 5</u>, we have the attack of OH^- on the O-BH_2 to produce an alkoxide. Finally, the water molecule produce in step 2 will <u>protonate</u> the molecule to produce the alcohol.

See figure 1

I hope it helps!
