In the covalent bond formation process orbitals from each atom overlap and electrons are shared between each atom. You can visua

lize the 1s atomic orbital of one hydrogen atom overlapping with the 1s orbital of the other hydrogen atom to form an HâH covalent bond. Each hydrogen atom in the H2 molecule has the electron configuration analogous to that of the He atom. Similarly, when 2p orbitals of two fluorine atoms overlap they share one electron each. The total number of electrons in each F atom is nine. Each F atom shares one electron with the other F atom, and thus the total number of electrons in each F atom in the F2 molecule is 10. Therefore, each F atom in the F2 molecule has the electron configuration analogous to that of Ne.
The atomic orbitals of two iodine atoms combine to form the diatomic I2 molecule. Use the periodic table to determine the atomic orbitals that overlap to form the I2 molecule and the symbol of the noble gas that has the same electron configuration as the electron configuration of each bonded iodine atom.

For example, the 2p atomic orbitals of fluorine atoms overlap to form the F2 molecule. The noble gas that has the same electron configuration as that of each bonded fluorine atom is Ne. To enter the atomic orbitals that overlap and the corresponding noble gas, you would enter 2p,Ne.

Enter the symbol for the orbitals that overlap and the chemical symbol of the noble gas separated by a comma. For example, for H2 enter 1s, He.

Answer: The atomic orbitals which combine to form I_2 molecule is 5p-orbitals and the noble gas is Xenon (Xe).

Explanation: Iodine is the 53rd element of the periodic table. It lies in Group 17 of the periodic table.

Valence shell electronic configuration of Iodine = 5s^25p^5

5p orbitals of two iodine atoms overlap to share one electron each. The total number of electrons that each iodine atom contain are 53. Each iodine atom shares one electron with the other iodine atom, so that each molecule of I_2 contains 54 electrons. Hence, the electronic configuration of noble gas Xenon is same as the each iodine atom in I_2 molecule.

Therefore, 5p orbital overlap to form I_2 molecule and the noble gas having same number of electrons as each iodine atom in I_2 molecule is Xenon. the symbol for this gas is 'Xe'.

For each of the following reactions, identify the missing reactant(s) or products(s) and then balance the resulting equation. No
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

A. The reactants are= Li and O2

The balanced equation is:

4Li + O2 —> 2Li2O

B. The products are: MgCl2 and O2

The balanced equation is:

Mg(ClO3)2 —> MgCl2 + 3O2

C. The products are: Ca(NO3)2 and H2O

The balanced equation is:

2HNO3 + Ca(OH)2 —> Ca(NO3)2 +

2H2O

D. The products are: CO2 and H2O

The balanced equation is:

C5H12 + 8O2 —> 5CO2 + 6H2O

Explanation:

A. ____ —> Li2O

The reactants are Li and O2. Thus the equation is given below:

Li + O2 —> Li2O

Thus the equation is balanced as follow:

There are 2 atoms of O on the left side and 1 atom on the right side. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of Li2O as shown below:

Li + O2 —> 2Li2O

Now, we have 4 atoms of Li on the right side and 1 atom on the left. It can be balance by putting 4 in front of Li as shown below:

4Li + O2 —> 2Li2O

Now the equation is balanced

B. Mg(ClO3)2 —> __

The products are MgCl2 and O2

The equation is given below:

Mg(ClO3)2 —> MgCl2 + O2

The equation can be balance as follow:

There are 6 atoms of O on the left side and 2 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 3 in front of O2 as shown below:

Mg(ClO3)2 —> MgCl2 + 3O2

Now the equation is balanced

C. HNO3 + Ca(OH)2 —>___

The products are: Ca(NO3)2 and H2O

The equation is given below:

HNO3 + Ca(OH)2 —> Ca(NO3)2 + H2O

The equation is balanced as follow:

There are 2 atoms of NO3 on the right side and 1 atom on the left. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of HNO3 as shown below:

2HNO3 + Ca(OH)2 —> Ca(NO3)2 + H2O

There are a total of 4 atoms of H on the left side and 2 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of H2O as shown below:

2HNO3 + Ca(OH)2 —> Ca(NO3)2 + 2H2O

Now the equation is balanced

D. C5H12 + O2 —>__

The products are: CO2 and H2O

The equation is given below:

C5H12 + O2 —> CO2 + H2O

The equation can be balance as follow:

There are 5 atoms of C on the left side and 1 atom on the right side. It can be balance by putting 5 in front of CO2 as shown below:

C5H12 + O2 —> 5CO2 + H2O

There are 12 atoms of H on the left side and 2 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 6 in front of H2O as shown below:

C5H12 + O2 —> 5CO2 + 6H2O

Now, there are a total of 16 atoms of O on the right side and 2 atoms on the left. It can be balance by putting 8 in front of O2 as shown below:

C5H12 + 8O2 —> 5CO2 + 6H2O

Now we can see that the equation is balanced.
