It is faster in solids generally because the particles in a solid tend to be closer together than particles in a gas.

Two other factors the speed of sound can depend on is the density of the medium and how elastic the medium is

The highest energy occupied molecular orbital in the C-C bond of the C2 molecule is?
Butoxors [25]

The highest energy occupied molecular orbital in the C-C bond of the C₂ molecule is 2pπ orbitals.

<h3>What is Molecular Orbital Theory?</h3>

According to this theory,

  • Molecular orbitals are formed by intermixing of atomic orbitals of two or more atoms having comparable energies
  • The number of molecular orbitals formed is equal to the number of atomic orbitals combined.
  • The shape of molecular orbitals formed depends on the type of atomic orbitals combined
  • Only atomic orbitals having comparable energies and the same orientation can intermix
  • Bonding M.O. is formed by the additive effect of atomic orbitals and thus, has lower energy and high stability.
  • Antibonding M.O. is formed by the subtractive effect of atomic orbitals and thus, has higher energy and low stability.
  • Bonding M.O. is represented by \sigma, \pi, \delta while Antibonding M.O. is represented by \sigma^*, \pi^*, \delta^*\\

What is the total number of oxygen atoms on the right-hand side of this chemical equation?
vivado [14]

The chemical equation is

Cu(s) +4HNO3(aq) ⇒ Cu(NO3)2(aq) + 2NO2(g) + 2H2O(g)

Answer:

12

Explanation:

In the right hand side of the equation, there are three compound which contains O2, which are;

Cu(NO3)2 , number of oxygen atoms =3*2 =6

2NO2, number of oxygen atoms = 2*2=4

2H2O, number of oxygen atoms =2*1=2

Total number of oxygen atoms on the right side of equation = 6+4+2 =12
