State Hund's rule.

Chemistry
1 answer:
loris [4]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

C. The lowest-energy electron configuration of an atom has the maximum number of unpaired electrons, all of which have the same spin, in degenerate orbitals.

Explanation:

The Hund's rule is used to place the electrons in the orbitals is it states that:

1. Every orbital in a sublevel is singly occupied before any orbital is doubly occupied;

2. All of the electrons in singly occupied orbitals have the same spin.

So, the electrons first seek to fill the orbitals with the same energy (degenerate orbitals) before paring with electrons in a half-filled orbital. Orbitals doubly occupied have greater energy, so the lowest-energy electron configuration of an atom has the maximum number of unpaired electrons, and for the second statement, they have the same spin.

The other alternatives are correct, but they're not observed by the Hund's rule.

Calculate the standard cell potential at 25 ∘c for the reaction x(s)+2y+(aq)→x2+(aq)+2y(s) where δh∘ = -793 kj and δs∘ = -319 j/
QveST [7]
First we will calculate free energy change:
ΔG₀ = ΔH₀ - (T * ΔS₀)
        = - 793 kJ - (298 * - 0.319 kJ/K) = - 698 kJ
We know the relation between free energy change and cell potential is:
ΔG₀ = - n F E⁰ where
F = Faraday's constant = 96485 C/mol
n = 2 (given by equation that the electrons involved is 2)
ΔG₀ = - 2 x 96485 x E⁰
- 698 kJ = - 2 x 96485 x E⁰
E⁰ = (698 x 1000) / (2 x 96485) = 3.62 volts

How do you tell if an element is a solid, liquid or gas (ex. Na2S)
svetoff [14.1K]
Solids have a definite shape, and a definite volume.
Liquids have a definite volume, but have no definite shape.
Gas have neither a definite volume nor a definite shape.

Hope this helps!
