An excited state refers to an atom with electrons at a higher energy level. More than necessary and a ground state is when all atom's electrons are in their lowest orbital possible

Iron is the most
Georgia [21]

hope this is correct

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Iron is the fourth most abundant element, by mass, in the Earth's crust. The core of the Earth is thought to be largely composed of iron with nickel and sulfur. The most common iron-containing ore is haematite, but iron is found widely distributed in other minerals such as magnetite and taconite.

The cyclohexane ring is essentially free of ring strain because Check all that apply.
NikAS [45]

Answer:The following statements are correct: 1,2 and 6

Explanation:

1.The cyclohexane ring adopts a chair conformation in order to minimize its torsional strain. In chair conformation 4 carbon atoms are in one plane 1 carbon atom is above that plane and the other 1 carbon atom is below that plane .This leads to  chair conformation in which the bond angles are very close to the ideal tetrahedral angle of 109.5 degrees. The C-C-C bond angle in chair conformation is 110 degrees which is almost equal to the ideal tetrahedral angle.

2. In cyclohexane molecule as the molecule adopts a chair conformation in order  to eliminate the torsional strain which would occur if the cyclohexane ring were to be planar. Torsional strain is basically the inter electronic repulsion between the atoms that do not share a bond. So this strain happens on account of eclipsing atoms. In case of eclipse structure there would be a lot of torsional strain. In case of chair conformation all the C-H bonds happen to be completely staggered in nature to eliminate the torsional strain.

3. The ring strain in case of cycloalkanes are  dependent upon the number of CH₂ groups present as that would determine the size of the ring and subsequently its structure ,whether the ring would be 5 , 6 or 7 membered  .Cyclohexane is a 6 -membered as there are 6CH₂ groups in it and the existence of chair conformation is only for Cyclohexane or for molecules having 6-membered ring  . Any change  in number of CH₂groups would lead to a different conformational structure.

4.All the bond angles in cyclohexane ring is  approximately 110 degrees which is almost equal to the ideal terahedral bond angle. So the bond angles in cyclohexane are optimal.

5.The C-H bonds in cyclohexane are  always staggered and never eclipsed in order to reduce there torsional strain.

6.All the bonds in cyclohexane ring are staggered to eliminate the torsional strain. It is quite evident that the cyclohexane ring is completely stable free of the ring strain.So there are no eclipsing bonds present in cyclohexane.

So the statements which are correct 1,2 and 6

Calculate the number of grams of Mg needed for this reaction to release enough energy to increase the temperature of 78 mL of wa
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

We need 1.1 grams of Mg

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Volume of water = 78 mL

Initial temperature = 29 °C

Final temperature = 78 °C

The standard heats of formation

−285.8 kJ/mol H2O(l)

−924.54 kJ/mol Mg(OH)2(s)

Step 2: The equation

The heat is produced by the following reaction:

Mg(s)+2H2O(l)→Mg(OH)2(s)+H2(g)

Step 3: Calculate the mass of Mg needed

Using the standard heats of formation:

−285.8 kJ/mol H2O(l)

−924.54 kJ/mol Mg(OH)2(s)

Mg(s) + 2 H2O(l) → Mg(OH)2(s) + H2(g)

−924.54 kJ − (2 * −285.8 kJ) = −352.94 kJ/mol Mg

(4.184 J/g·°C) * (78 g) * (78 - 29)°C = 15991.248 J required

(15991.248 J) / (352940 J/mol Mg) * (24.3 g Mg/mol) = 1.1 g Mg

We need 1.1 grams of Mg
