Period  4  transition  element  that  forms  2+  ion  with  a  half‐filled  d  sub level  is
Manganese  (Mn)

What is the half-filled d sub-level?

Transition metals are an interesting and challenging group of elements.  They have perplexing patterns of electron distribution that don’t always follow the electron-filling rules.  Predicting how they will form ions is also not always obvious.

Transition metals belong to the d block, meaning that the d sublevel of electrons is in the process of being filled with up to ten electrons.  Many transition metals cannot lose enough electrons to attain a noble-gas electron configuration.  In addition,  the majority of transition metals are capable of adopting ions with different charges.  Iron, which forms either the Fe2+ or Fe3+ ions, loses electrons as shown below.

Some transition metals that have relatively few d electrons may attain a noble-gas electron configuration.  Scandium is an example. Others may attain configurations with a full d sublevel, such as zinc and copper.

Carbon dioxide dissolves in water to form carbonic acid, which is primarily dissolved CO2. Dissolved CO2 satisfies the equilibri
lorasvet [3.4K]

Explanation:

The reaction equation will be as follows.

           CO_{2}(aq) + H_{2}O \rightleftharpoons H^{+}(aq) + HCO^{-}_{3}(aq)

Calculate the amount of CO_{2} dissolved as follows.

             CO_{2}(aq) = K_{CO_{2}} \times P_{CO_{2}}

It is given that K_{CO_{2}} = 0.032 M/atm and P_{CO_{2}} = 1.9 \times 10^{-4} atm.

Hence, [CO_{2}] will be calculated as follows.

           [CO_{2}] = K_{CO_{2}} \times P_{CO_{2}}          

                           = 0.032 M/atm \times 1.9 \times 10^{-4}atm

                           = 0.0608 \times 10^{-4}

or,                        = 0.608 \times 10^{-5}

It is given that K_{a} = 4.46 \times 10^{-7}

As,      K_{a} = \frac{[H^{+}]^{2}}{[CO_{2}]}

          4.46 \times 10^{-7} = \frac{[H^{+}]^{2}}{0.608 \times 10^{-5}}  

               [H^{+}]^{2} = 2.71 \times 10^{-12}

                      [H^{+}] = 1.64 \times 10^{-6}

Since, we know that pH = -log [H^{+}]

So,                      pH = -log (1.64 \times 10^{-6})

                                 = 5.7

Therefore, we can conclude that pH of water in equilibrium with the atmosphere is 5.7.
