What is the electron configuration for the Co3+ ion?

Chemistry
1 answer:
liq [111]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 3d4 4s2

Explanation:

Cobalt has twenty seven electrons hence Co3+ has twenty four electrons. It has lost three electrons from its valence shell. In filling the orbitals, we keep in mind that the energy of the 4s level is higher than that of the 3s level when a transition metal forms a complex hence the 4s is filled before the 3s level as shown in the answer above.

Combined gas law problem: a balloon is filled with 500.0 mL of helium at a temperature of 27 degrees Celsius and 755 mmHg. As th
Papessa [141]
The statement of the combined gas law for a fixed amount of gas is,
PV/T = constant
Here, the units of pressure and volume must be consistent and the temperature must be the absolute temperature (Kelvin or Rankine).
0.65 atm is equivalent to 494 mmHg
Using the equation:
(755 x 500) / (27 + 273) = (494 x V) / (-33 + 273)
V = 3396 ml = 3.4 liters

Which of these phrases accurately describe disproportionation? Check all that apply.
Olin [163]

Answer:

A single compound is simultaneously oxidized and reduced.

Explanation:

In chemistry, disproportionation is a simultaneous oxidation and reduction of a single chemical specie.

What this means is that; in a disproportionation reaction, only one compound is both oxidized and reduced. This implies that two products are formed during disproportionation. One is the oxidized product while the other is the reduced product.

Consider the disproportionation of CuCl shown below;

2CuCl -----> CuCl2 + Cu

Here, CuCl2 is the oxidized product while Cu is the reduced product.

The ka values for several weak acids are given below. which acid (and its conjugate base) would be the best buffer at ph = 8.0?
Pie
One of the best buffer choice for pH = 8.0 is Tris with Ka value of  6.3 x 10^-9.

To support this answer, we first calculate for the pKa value as the negative logarithm of the Ka value: 
     pKa = -log Ka

For Tris, which is an abbreviation for 2-Amino-2-hydroxymethyl-propane-1,3 -diol and has a Ka value of 6.3 x 10^-9, the pKa is
     pKa = -log Ka
            = -log (6.3x10^-9)
            = 8.2

We know that buffers work best when pH is equal to pKa:
     pKa = 8.2 = pH 

Therefore Tris would be a best buffer at pH = 8.0.
