Now they feel it is best to have you identify an unknown gas based on its properties. Suppose 0.508 g of a gas occupies a volume

of 0.175 L at a temperature of 25.0◦C is held at a pressure of 1.000 atm. What gas is this most likely?
Neon
Chlorine

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

             mass = 0.508 g,               Volume = 0.175 L

             Temperature = (25 + 273) K = 298 K,       P = 1 atm

As per the ideal gas law, PV = nRT.

where,  n = no. of moles = \frac{mass}{\text{molar mass}}

Hence, putting all the given values into the ideal gas equation as follows.

               PV = \frac{mass}{\text{molar mass}} \times RT            

           1 atm \times 0.175 L = \frac{0.508 g}{\text{molar mass}} \times 0.0821 L atm/ K mol \times 298 K  

                            = 71.02 g

As the molar mass of a chlorine atom is 35.4 g/mol and it exists as a gas. So, molar mass of Cl_{2} is 70.8 g/mol or 71 g/mol (approx).

Thus, we can conclude that the gas is most likely chlorine.

What are the possible values of n and ml for an electron in a 5d orbital?
liberstina [14]

Answer:

The answer to your question is n = 5, l = 2, m can be -2, -1, 0, 1 or 2

Explanation:

Data

orbital = 5d

values of n, l, m

Process

1.- Determine the value of n

n is the coefficient of the orbital, in this problem n = 5

2.- Determine the value of l

l takes values depending in the sublevel of energy,

if the sublevel is s  then l = 0

                           p          l = 1

                           d          l = 2

                           f           l = 3

For this problem l = 2

3.- Determine the value of m

when l = 2, m takes values of -2, - 1, 0, 1 or 2

Below is the Lewis structure of the hydrogen cyanide molecule.
lianna [129]

Answer :

The number of bonding pairs of electrons around the hydrogen atom = 2

The number of lone pairs of electrons around the hydrogen atom = 0

Explanation :

Lewis-dot structure : It shows the bonding between the atoms of a molecule and it also shows the unpaired electrons present in the molecule.

In the Lewis-dot structure the valance electrons are shown by 'dot'.

The given molecule is, HCN

As we know that carbon has '4' valence electrons, hydrogen has '1' valence electrons and nitrogen has '5' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in HCN = 1 + 4 + 5 = 10

According to Lewis-dot structure we conclude that, there are 8 number of bonding electrons and 2 number of non-bonding electrons.

The number of bonding pairs of electrons around the hydrogen atom = 2

The number of lone pairs of electrons around the hydrogen atom = 0
