False, im pretty sure you can fit way more electrons in an atom

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>

• Liquid at room temperature
•Gas at room temperature
• Argon has approximately the same solubility in water as oxygen and is 2.5 times more soluble in water than nitrogen. Argon is colorless, odorless, nonflammable and nontoxic as a solid, liquid or gas. Argon is chemically inert under most conditions and forms no confirmed stable compounds at room temperature.

The value of Ka for nitrous acid (HNO2) at 25 ∘C is 4.5×10−4 .a. Write the chemical equation for the equilibrium that correspond
kvv77 [185]

Answers and Explanation:

a)- The chemical equation for the corresponden equilibrium of Ka1 is:

2. HNO2(aq)⇌H+(aq)+NO−2

Because Ka1 correspond to a dissociation equilibrium. Nitrous acid (HNO₂) losses a proton (H⁺) and gives the monovalent anion NO₂⁻.

b)- The relation between Ka and the free energy change (ΔG) is given by the following equation:

ΔG= ΔGº + RT ln Q

Where T is the temperature (T= 25ºc= 298 K) and R is the gases constant (8.314 J/K.mol)

At the equilibrium: ΔG=0 and Q= Ka. So, we can calculate ΔGº by introducing the value of Ka:

⇒ 0 = ΔGº + RT ln Ka

   ΔGº= - RT ln Ka

   ΔGº= -8.314 J/K.mol x 298 K x ln (4.5 10⁻⁴)

  ΔGº= 19092.8 J/mol

c)- According to the previous demonstation, at equilibrium ΔG= 0.

d)- In a non-equilibrium condition, we have Q which is calculated with the concentrations of products and reactions in a non equilibrium state:

ΔG= ΔGº + RT ln Q

Q= ((H⁺) (NO₂⁻))/(HNO₂)

Q= ( (5.9 10⁻² M) x (6.7 10⁻⁴ M) ) / (0.21 M)

Q= 1.88 10⁻⁴

We know that   ΔGº= 19092.8 J/mol, so:

ΔG= ΔGº + RT ln Q

ΔG= 19092.8 J/mol + (8.314 J/K.mol x 298 K x ln (1.88 10⁻⁴)

ΔG= -2162.4 J/mol

Notice that ΔG<0, so the process is spontaneous in that direction.

What is the limiting reactant for the following balanced equation when 9 moles of AlF3 are mixed with 12 miles of O2?
tamaranim1 [39]
<h2>Answer:AlF_{3} </h2>

Explanation:

The chemical equation of the reaction that occurs when AlF_{3} reacts with O_{2} is

4AlF_{3}+3O_{2}→2Al_{2}O_{3}+6F_{2}

4 moles of AlF_{3} requires 3 moles of O_{2}.

1 mole of AlF_{3} requires \frac{3}{4} moles of O_{2}.

Given that we have 9 moles of AlF_{3}.

9 moles of AlF_{3} requires \frac{3}{4}\times 9=6.75 moles of O_{2}.

But we have 12 moles of O_{2}.

So,AlF_{3}  will be consumed first.

So,AlF_{3}  is the limiting reagent.
