A plasma is a hot ionised gas which has equal number of positively charged particles and negatively charged electrons. Plasma are considered to be the fourth state of matter. Because plasma are made up of charged particles they are affected by both electric and magnetic field. The aspect of the kinetic molecular theory that can be used to explain the behaviour of plasma is that PARTICLES IN MOTION EXCHANGE ENERGY THROUGH ELASTIC COLLISION.

Draw it draw lewis dot structures for each hypothetical molecule shown below, using the correct number of valence electrons for

soldi70 [24.7K]

The first molecule is a sensible molecule having complete octet of each atom such as C, H and O whereas the second molecule having hydrogen present between the aldehyde and methyl group and thus showing hydrogen is making bond with aldehyde and methyl as well which is not possible because hydrogen only having one electron in its octet due to which it can only form a single bond by sharing its valence electron.

According to Hund's rule of maximum spin multiplicity, how many singly-occupied orbitals are there in the valence shells of the

leva [86]

Answer:

A) carbon - 2

B) cobalt - 3

C) sulfur - 2

D) fluorine - 1

E) titanium - 2

F) germanium - 2

Explanation:

Hund's rule of maximum multiplicity:-

Firstly, every orbital which is present in the sublevel is singly occupied and then the orbital is doubly occupied.

(A) Carbon.

The electronic configuration is -

$1s^22s^22p^2$

Thus, 2s orbital is fully filled and p orbital can singly filled 3 electrons. Thus, Carbon has 2 singly occupied orbitals.

(B) Cobalt.

The electronic configuration is -

$1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^63d^{7}4s^2$

Thus, 4s orbital is fully filled and d orbital can singly filled 5 electrons. Thus, 4 electrons will be paired in 2 orbitals and 3 orbitals will be singly filled in cobalt.

(C) Sulfur.

The electronic configuration is -

$1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^4$

Thus, 3s orbital is fully filled and p orbital can singly filled 3 electrons. Thus, 2 electrons will be paired in 1 orbital and 2 orbitals will be singly filled in sulfur.

D) fluorine

The electronic configuration is -

$1s^22s^22p^5$

Thus, 2s orbital is fully filled and p orbital can singly filled 3 electrons. Thus, 4 electrons will be paired in 2 orbitals and 1 orbital will be singly filled in fluorine.

E) Titanium

The electronic configuration is -

$1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^63d^{2}4s^2$

Thus, 4s orbital is fully filled and d orbital can singly filled 5 electrons. Thus, 2 orbitals will be singly filled in titanium.

F) Germanium

The electronic configuration is -

$1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^63d^{10}4s^24p^2$

Thus, 4s, 3d orbitals are fully filled and p orbital can singly filled 3 electrons. Thus, Germanium has 2 singly occupied orbitals.

The standard internal energy change for a reaction can be symbolized as Δ U ∘ rxn or Δ E ∘ rxn . For each reaction equation, cal

rosijanka [135]

Answer : The internal energy change is, -506.3 kJ/mol

Explanation :

Formula used :

$\Delta H=\Delta U+\Delta n_gRT$

or,

$\Delta U=\Delta H-\Delta n_gRT$

where,

$\Delta H$ = change in enthalpy = $-511.3kJ/mol=-511300.0J/mol$

$\Delta U$ = change in internal energy = ?

$\Delta n_g$ = change in moles

Change in moles = Number of moles of product side - Number of moles of reactant side

According to the reaction:

Change in moles = 0 - 2 = -2 mole

That means, value of $\Delta n_gRT$ = 0

R = gas constant = 8.314 J/mol.K

T = temperature = $25^oC=273+25=298K$

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get

$\Delta U=\Delta H-\Delta n_gRT$

$\Delta U=(-511300.0J/mol)-[-2mol\times 8.314J/mol.K\times 298K$

$\Delta U=-511300.0J/mol+4955.144J/mol$

$\Delta U=-506344.856J/mol=-506.3kJ/mol$

Therefore, the internal energy change is -506.3 kJ/mol
