Zinc blende, or sphalerite, can be described as having a face-centered cubic unit cell with sulfur atoms at each lattice point a

nd four zinc atoms within the unit cell. What is the empirical formula for this material? Follow standard convention for writing an empirical formula (ex. for AlCl3 enter AlCl3 not Cl3Al).

Answer:

ZnS  

Explanation:

1. Number of Zn atoms

4 internal atoms = 4 Zn atoms

2. Number of S atoms

8 corners × ⅛ S atom/corner + 6 faces × ½ S atom/face = 1 S atom + 3 S atoms = 4 S atoms

3. Empirical formula

The atomic ratio is

4Zn:4S = 1Zn:1S

The empirical formula is ZnS.

Explain how impurities are selected for doping in group 14 semiconductors
aleksklad [387]

Impurities selection for doping in group 14 semiconductors is: based on their ability to add more holes and fewer electrons or to add more electrons and reduce the holes.

<h3>Meaning of Semiconductors</h3>

Semiconductors can be defined as any material that has the ability to exhibit some properties of a conductor and some properties of an insulator.

A semiconductor can be used as either a conductor or an insulator when worked upon.

In conclusion, Impurities selection for doping in group 14 semiconductors is: based on their ability to add more holes and fewer electrons or to add more electrons and reduce the holes.

If the % acetic acid listed on a vinegar bottle is 4%, what is the implied uncertainty of the acetic acid concentration
Tom [10]

Answer:

This question appears incomplete

Explanation:

This question appears incomplete because the data provided only makes it possible to calculate the certainty of the acetic acid content per total volume of the vinegar. Thus, the 4% means for every 100 mL of the vinegar, there is 4 mL of acetic acid present. To calculate the volume of acetic acid in any other volume of vinegar, the formula will be

volume of acetic acid = 4/100 × total volume of vinegar

If a sample of magnesium with a mass of 35.0 grams reacts with 35.0 grams of oxygen how much magnesium oxide will be produced?​
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

58.0 g of MgO

Explanation:

in a perfect world, 70 g, however we don't live in a perfect world

The equation of reaction

2Mg + O₂ --> 2MgO

first find which element is limiting:

35 g x 1 mol/24.3 g of Mg x 2 mol of MgO/ 2 mole of Mg = 1.44 moles of MgO

35 g x 1 mol/32g of Mg x 2 mol of MgO/ 1 mole of O₂ = 2.1875 moles of MgO

This means Mg is the limiting factor, so you will be using this moles to find grams of MgO

1.44 mols of MgO x 40.3 g of MgO/ 1 mol = 58.0 g of MgO

What would be the bond order for He 2 2- molecule
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

In He2 molecule,

Atomic orbitals available for making Molecular Orbitals are 1s from each Helium. And total number of electrons available are 4.

Molecular Orbitals thus formed are:€1s2€*1s2

It means 2 electrons are in bonding molecular orbitals and 2 are in antibonding molecular orbitals .

Bond Order =Electrons in bonding molecular orbitals - electrons in antibonding molecular orbitals /2

Bond Order =Nb-Na/2

Bond Order =2-2/2=0

Since the bond order is zero so that He2 molecule does not exist.
