Answer:

(a) 6g. Shell 6, n = 6. Subshell g, l = 4. Number of orbitals in sublevel = 9

(b) 4s. Shell 4, n = 4. Subshell s, l = 0. Number of orbitals in sublevel = 1

Explanation:

The rules for electron quantum numbers are:

1. Shell number, 1 ≤ n, n = 1, 2, 3...

2. Subshell number, 0 ≤ l ≤ n − 1, orbital s - 0, p - 1, d - 2, f - 3

3. Orbital energy shift, -l ≤ ml ≤ l

4. Spin, either -1/2 or +1/2

So,

(a) 6g. Shell 6, n = 6. Subshell g, l = 4. Number of orbitals in sublevel = 2l+1 = 9

(b) 4s. Shell 4, n = 4. Subshell s, l = 0. Number of orbitals in sublevel = 2l+1 = 1

After 11.5 days, 12.5% of a sample of radon-222 that originally weighed 42g remains. What is the half-life of this isotope?

Bond [772]

Half-life is defined as the amount of time it takes a given quantity to decrease to half of its initial value. The equation to describe the decay is
Nt=N0(1/2) $^{t/t(1/2)}$ where N0 is the initial quantity, Nt is the remaining quantity after time t, t1/2 is the half-time. So work out the equation, t1/2 = t (-ln2)/ln(Nt/N0) = 11.5*(-ln2)/ln(12.5/100) = 3.83 days

A buffer solution contains 0.345 M acetic acid and 0.377 M sodium acetate . If 0.0613 moles of potassium hydroxide are added to

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

pH = 5.54

Explanation:

The pH of a buffer solution is given by the Henderson-Hasselbach (H-H) equation:

pH = pKa + log $\frac{[CH_3COO^-]}{[CH_3COOH]}$

For acetic acid, pKa = 4.75.

We calculate the original number of moles for acetic acid and acetate, using the given concentrations and volume:

CH₃COO⁻ ⇒ 0.377 M * 0.250 L = 0.0942 mol CH₃COO⁻

CH₃COOH ⇒ 0.345 M * 0.250 L = 0.0862 mol CH₃COOH

The number of CH₃COO⁻ moles will increase with the added moles of KOH while the number of CH₃COOH moles will decrease by the same amount.

Now we use the H-H equation to calculate the new pH, by using the new concentrations:

pH = 4.75 + log $\frac{(0.0942+0.0613)mol/0.250L}{(0.0862-0.0613)mol/0.250L}$ = 5.54

Ca(s)+2hno3(aq)→ca(no3)2(aq)+h2(g) identify the oxidizing agent.

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

To find for the oxidizing agent, first let us write the half reactions of this complete chemical reaction:

Ca = Ca2+ + 2e- 
2 H+ + 2e- = H2

The oxidizing agent would be the substance of the element that is reduced. We know that an element is reduced when an electron is added to it. In this case, the element being reduced is H. Therefore the oxidizing agent is HNO3.

Answer:

HNO3

Conserving water can save money while protecting the environment. True or False

blagie [28]

Answer: The given statement is true.

Explanation:

Water is a natural resource present in the nature and it is very precious as life without it is impossible.

So, when we unnecessarily use water then it means we are wasting a natural resource that cannot be reproduced again by human beings.

Therefore, more we are able to conserve water more we can protect other human life's and environment also.

If there is shortage of water then its prices will go high and hence we need to pay more for it.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement conserving water can save money while protecting the environment, is true.
