Compounds containing unpaired electrons are paramagnetic in nature, while compounds containing no unpaired electrons are diamagnetic in nature.

Attached is the molecular orbital diagram of S2 molecule. For the MOT diagram it can be seen that S2 molecule has two unpair electron in two π* orbital. Due to this, it is paramagnetic in nature.

In contrast to this, Li2, C2 and Cl2 have no unpaired electrons. Hence they are diamagnetic in nature.

Some atoms are chemically stable and will not bond with atoms of other

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

The stability of atoms depends on whether or not their outer-most shell is filled with electrons. If the outer shell is filled, the atom is stable. Atoms with unfilled outer shells are unstable, and will usually form chemical bonds with other atoms to achieve stability.

An aqueous solution containing 17.5 g of an unknown molecular (nonelectrolyte) compound in 100.0 g of water has a freezing point

Sonbull [250]

Answer:

molar mass = 180.833 g/mol

Explanation:

mass sln = mass solute + mass solvent

∴ solute: unknown molecular (nonelectrolyte)

∴ solvent: water

∴ mass solute = 17.5 g

∴ mass solvent = 100.0 g = 0.1 Kg

⇒ mass sln = 117.5 g

freezing point:

ΔTc = - Kc×m

∴ ΔTc = -1.8 °C

∴ Kc H2O = 1.86 °C.Kg/mol

∴ m: molality (mol solute/Kg solvent)

⇒ m = ( - 1.8 °C)/( - 1.86 °C.Kg/mol)

⇒ m = 0.9677 mol solute/Kg solvent

molar mass (Mw) [=] g/mol

∴ mol solute = ( m )×(Kg solvent)

⇒ mol solute = ( 0.9677 mol/Kg) × ( 0.100 Kg H2O )

⇒ mol solute = 0.09677 mol

⇒ Mw solute = ( 17.5 g ) / ( 0.09677 mol )

⇒ Mw solute = 180.833 g/mol

In which of these diatomic molecules would you NOT find an octet of electrons

Semmy [17]

Answer:

The hydrogen molecule is the only one in which can not find an octet of electrons around each atom.

Explanation:

Let's evaluate each case.

1. Nitrogen (N₂):

With Z = 7, nitrogen has the following electronic configuration

1s²

2s² 2p³ → valence electrons

Since its valence electrons are 5, in the molecule one nitrogen atom shares 3 electrons with the other one, and each remains with an electron pair, so each atom has an octet of electrons.

2. Hydrogen (H₂):

With Z = 1, its electronic configuration is:

1s¹ → valence electron

In the molecule, the hydrogen atoms share the only electron they have, so they will have only 2 electrons around. In this diatomic molecule, we can not find an octet.

3. Oxygen (O₂):

Z = 8. Electronic configuration:

1s²

2s² 2p⁴ → valence electrons

In the diatomic molecule, each oxygen atom shares 2 electrons with the other one and remains with 2 pairs of electrons, therefore, each oxygen atom has an octet.

4. Fluorine (F₂)

Z = 9. Electronic configuration:

1s²

2s² 2p⁵ → valence electrons

In this molecule, each fluorine atom shares 1 electron with the other and remains with 3 pairs of electrons, hence, each fluorine atom has an octet of electrons around.

Finally, we can say that the hydrogen molecule is the only one in which can not find an octet of electrons around each atom.

I hope it helps you!
