Answer:

TRUE

Explanation:

Each electronic shell in an atom is composed of subshells, which are denoted by the symbol s, p, d and f. These subshells are represented by the principal quantum number (n) and the azimuthal quantum number (ℓ).  

Each subshell can hold a fixed number of electrons, which is equal to (4ℓ + 2) electrons.

For, d subshell the value of ℓ = 2.

<u>Therefore, the maximum number of electrons that a d-orbital can hold = (4ℓ + 2) electrons = (4×2 + 2) electrons = 10 electrons.</u>

klio [65]
The atomic mass or relative isotopic mass refers to the mass of a single particle, and therefore is tied to a certain specific isotope of an element. The dimensionless standard atomic weight instead refers to the AVERAGE of atomic mass values of a typical naturally-occurring mixture of isotopes for a sample of an element.
You can count it by yourself using formula

m = ({first isotopic distribution%}× {first atomic.mass})+ ({second isotopic distribution%}× {second atomic.mass}) / {100}

Give the formula of each of the following (don't worry about subscripts or superscripts, example: HCO3- enter as HCO3-): the con
vovangra [49]

Answer:

The relative conjugate acids and bases are listed below:

CH3NH2 → CH3NH3+

H2SO3→ HSO3-

NH3→ NH4+

Explanation:

In a Brønsted-Lowry acid-base reaction, a conjugate acid is the species resulting from a base accepting a proton; likewise, a conjugate base is the species formed after an acid has donated a hydrogen atom (proton).

To this end:

  • HSO3- is the conjugate acid of H2SO3 i.e sulfuric acid has lost a proton (H+)
  • NH4+ is the conjugate acid of NH3 i.e the base ammonia has gained a proton (H+)
  • OH- is the conjugate base of H20
  • CH3NH3+ is the conjugate base of the base CH3NH2 methylamine

How many moles are in 43.9 L of oxygen
Ede4ka [16]

Answer: 2 mol

Explanation:

- According to the ideal gas law, One mole of an ideal gas at STP (standard temperature and normal pressure) occupies 22.4 liters.

- Using cross multiplication,

                               1 mol of (O2)        →       22.4 L

                                       ?                   →        43.9 L

Therefore, the number of moles of oxygen in 43.9 L = (43.9 × 1)/ 22.4 = 1.96 mol≈ 2 mol..

Use the periodic table to find the molar mass of
Naddika [18.5K]

I can give you a clue of getting mass. if it is the atomic number is even multiply by 2 but if the atomic number is odd multiply by 2 and add 1

sodium atomic number = 11 so mass = 11*2 +1 = 23

oxygen. atomic number = 8 so mass = 8*2 = 16

carbon atomic number = 6 so mass = 6*2 = 12
