The density of gold is 19.32. Give two reasons why this statement is incomplete
2 answers:
<u>Answer:</u> The units and conditions are not written.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Density is defined as the ratio of mass of a substance to the volume of substance. The equation used to calculate density of a substance follows:
This property is expressed in g/mL or kg/L
Density depends on temperature and pressure of the system.
As, the temperature of the system increases, the particles move freely which increases the volume of system and leads to the decrease of density.
As, the pressure of the system increase, the particles come closer to one another which decreases the volume of system and leads to the increase of density.
So, for the given value of density, two reasons are:
- Units are not given.
- Conditions are not mentioned.

Answer: 4
Explanation:
Principle Quantum Numbers: This quantum number describes the size of the orbital. It is represented by n.
Azimuthal Quantum Number: This quantum number describes the shape of the orbital. It is represented as 'l'. The value of l ranges from 0 to (n-1). For l = 0,1,2,3... the orbitals are s, p, d, f...
Magnetic Quantum Number: This quantum number describes the orientation of the orbitals. It is represented as . The value of this quantum number ranges from
. When l = 2, the value of
will be -2, -1, 0, +1, +2.
Given : a f subshell, thus l = 3 , Thus the subshells present would be 3, 2, 1, 0 and thus n will have a value of 4.
Also electrons give are 32.
The formula for number of electrons is .
Thus principal quantum no will be n= 4.
Among formic acid (HCOOH ) and sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄), formic acid is the weak acid. Acidic strength of any acid is the tendency of that acid to loose proton. Among these two acids formic acid has a pKa value of 3.74 greater than that of sulfuric acid i.e. -10. Remember! Greater the pKa value of acid weaker is that acid and vice versa. Below I have drawn the Ionization of both acids to corresponding conjugate bases and protons. The structures below with charges are drawn in order to explain the reason for strength. As it is seen in charged structure of formic acid, there is one positive charge on carbon next to oxygen carrying proton. The electron density is shifted toward carbon as it is electron deficient and demands more electron hence, attracting electron density from oxygen and making the oxygen hydrogen bond more polar. While, in case of sulfuric acid it is depicted that Sulfur attached to oxygen containing proton has 2+ charge, means more electron deficient as compared to carbon of formic acid, hence, more electron demanding and strongly attracting electrons from oxygen and making the oxygen hydrogen bond very polar and highly ionizable.
