Answer:

Molecules in an ice cube have lower kinetic energy than molecules in a radiator. Molecules in an ice cube move more slowly than molecules in a radiator. They collide with less force than molecules in a radiator.

The edge length of the unit cell of KCl (NaCl-like structure, FCC) is 6.28 Å. Assuming anion-cation contact along the cell edge,

Mila [183]

Answer:

1.33 Å

Explanation:

Given that the edge length , a of the KCl which forms the FCC lattice = 6.28 Å

Also,

For the FCC lattice in which the anion-cation contact along the cell edge , the ratio of the radius of the cation to that of anion is 0.731.

Thus,

$\frac {r^+}{r^-}=0.731$ .................1

Also, the sum of the radius of the cation and the anion in FCC is equal to half of the edge length.

Thus,

$r^++r^-=\frac {a}{2}$ ...................2

Given that:

$Cl^-\ (r^-) = 1.82\ \dot{A}$

To find,

$K^+\ (r^+) = ? \dot{A}$

Using 1 and 2 , we get:

$1.731\ r^+=0.731\times \frac {6.28}{2}$

Size of the potassium ion = 1.33 Å

If you mix 50mL of 0.1 M TRIS acid with 60 mL of0.2 M TRIS base, what will be the resulting pH?

Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer: The pH of resulting solution is 8.7

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}$

For TRIS acid:

Molarity of TRIS acid solution = 0.1 M

Volume of solution = 50 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.1M=\frac{\text{Moles of TRIS acid}\times 1000}{50mL}\\\\\text{Moles of TRIS acid}=0.005mol$

For TRIS base:

Molarity of TRIS base solution = 0.2 M

Volume of solution = 60 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.2M=\frac{\text{Moles of TRIS base}\times 1000}{60mL}\\\\\text{Moles of TRIS base}=0.012mol$

Volume of solution = 50 + 60 = 110 mL = 0.11 L (Conversion factor: 1 L = 1000 mL)

To calculate the pH of acidic buffer, we use the equation given by Henderson Hasselbalch:

$pH=pK_a+\log(\frac{[salt]}{[acid]})$

$pH=pK_a+\log(\frac{[\text{TRIS base}]}{[\text{TRIS acid}]})$

We are given:

$pK_a$ = negative logarithm of acid dissociation constant of TRIS acid = 8.3

$[\text{TRIS acid}]=\frac{0.005}{0.11}$

$[\text{TRIS base}]=\frac{0.012}{0.11}$

pH = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$pH=8.3+\log(\frac{0.012/0.11}{0.005/0.11})\\\\pH=8.7$

Hence, the pH of resulting solution is 8.7

Can some atoms exceed the limits of the octet rule in bonding? If so, give an example.

harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

Yes. Example: Sulfur hexafluoride (SF₆) molecule

Explanation:

According to the octet rule, elements tend to form chemical bonds in order to have 8 electrons in their valence shell and gain the stable s²p⁶ electronic configuration.

However, this rule is generally followed by main group elements only.

Exception: SF₆ molecule

In this molecule, six fluorine atoms are attached to the central sulfur atom by single covalent bonds.

Each fluorine atom has 8 electrons in their valence shells. Thus, it follows the octet rule.

Whereas, there are 12 electrons around the central sulfur atom in the SF₆ molecule. Therefore, sulfur does not follow the octet rule.

Therefore, the SF₆ molecule is known as a hypervalent molecule or expanded-valence molecule.
