I’d say A. They are theoretical in the fact that they have not been observed directly, but have been confirmed to exist through experimentation.
We have that the the liquid is
- C_2H_5OH (ethanol
- And at a condition of H_2SO4 as catalyst and temp 170
From the question we are told
- A student wished to prepare <em>ethylene </em>gas by <em>dehydration </em>of ethanol at 140oC using sulfuric acid as the <em>dehydrating </em>agent.
- A low-boiling liquid was obtained instead of ethylene.
- What was the liquid, and how might the reaction conditions be changed to give ethylene
<h3>
Ethylene formation</h3>
Generally the equation is
2C_2H_5OH------CH3CH_2O-CH_2CH_3+H_20
Therefore
with ethanol at 140oC
The product is diethyl ethen
The reaction at 170 ethylene will give
C_2H_5OH-------CH_2=CH_2+H_2O( at a condition of H_2SO4 as catalyst and temp 170)
Therefore
The the liquid is

Answer:
C. The lowest-energy electron configuration of an atom has the maximum number of unpaired electrons, all of which have the same spin, in degenerate orbitals.
Explanation:
The Hund's rule is used to place the electrons in the orbitals is it states that:
1. Every orbital in a sublevel is singly occupied before any orbital is doubly occupied;
2. All of the electrons in singly occupied orbitals have the same spin.
So, the electrons first seek to fill the orbitals with the same energy (degenerate orbitals) before paring with electrons in a half-filled orbital. Orbitals doubly occupied have greater energy, so the lowest-energy electron configuration of an atom has the maximum number of unpaired electrons, and for the second statement, they have the same spin.
The other alternatives are correct, but they're not observed by the Hund's rule.
Answer: OH−.
Explanation: Hydroxide, any chemical compound containing one or more groups, each comprising one atom each of oxygen and hydrogen bonded together and functioning as the negatively charged ion OH-.
