Answer:

2) The outer electron of atom B has moved to a lower energy state.

Explanation:

Properly writing the sublevel notations:

        Atom A = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s¹

         Atom B = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 5s¹

Solution:

According to the Aufbau's principle, "the sublevels with the lower energies are filled up before those with higher energies".

The pattern of filling is shown below:

      1s, 2s, 2p, 3s, 3p, 4s, 3d, 4p, 5s, 4d, 5d, 6s, 4f, 5d, 6p, 7s, 5f, etc.

The configuration of atom A having a total of 11 electrons follows the Aufbau's rule as we can see.

For atom B, we see a higher energy level which is the 5s coming into the lower energy orbitals. Therefore, the outer electrons of atom B has moved to a lower energy state.

Rank the members of each set of compounds in order of decreasing ionic character of their bonds. Use partial charges to indicate
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

Ionic character

A.  PF₃ > PBr₃ > PCl₃

B. BF₃ > CF₄ > NF₃

C. TeF₄ > BrF₃ > SeF₄

Explanation:

The most electronegative element is fluorine, followed chlorine, phosphorous nitrogen etc.

  • Atoms with high electronegativity tend to form negative ions.
  • Ionic compounds formed between elements with high electronegativity difference.
  • % ionic character is directly proportional to electronegativity difference.
  • According to Pauling Scale E.n for F(4.0), O(3.5), N(3.0), C(2.5), B(2.0), P(2.19), Se(2.55) , Te (2.1), Cl(3.16) and Br(2.96)
  • ΔE.N (Electronegativity difference) between( P and F = 4 - 2.19 = 1.81), (P and Br = 2.96 - 2.19 = 0.77) , (P and Cl = 3.16 - 2.96 = 0.2 )
  • ΔE.N (Electronegativity difference) between( N and F = 4 - 3 = 1), (B and F = 4 - 2 = 2) , (C and F = 4 - 2.5 = 1.5 )
  • ΔE.N (Electronegativity difference) between( Se and F = 4 - 2.55 = 1.45), (F and Te = 4 - 2.1 = 1.9) , (F and Br = 4 - 2.19 = 1.81 )

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer: A. The reaction takes place in one step.

Explanation:

Rate law says that rate of a reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the reactants each raised to a stoichiometric coefficient determined experimentally called as order.

Molecularity of the reaction is defined as the number of atoms, ions or molecules that must colloid with one another simultaneously so as to result into a chemical reaction.

Order of the reaction is defined as the sum of the concentration of terms on which the rate of the reaction actually depends. It is the sum of the exponents of the molar concentration in the rate law expression.

Elementary reactions are defined as the reactions for which the order of the reaction is same as its molecularity and order with respect to each reactant is equal to its stoichiometric coefficient as represented in the balanced chemical reaction.

aA=bB\rightarrow cC+dD

Rate=k[A]^a[B]^b

k= rate constant

a= order with respect to A

b = order with respect to B
