How did the quantum mechanical model of the atom improve on Borh's atomic model?

1 answer:

7 0

n the Bohr Model, the electron is treated as a particle in fixed orbits around the nucleus. In the Quantum Mechanical Model, the electron is treated mathematically as a wave. The electron has properties of both particles and waves.

The Bohr model was a one-dimensional model that used one quantum number to describe the distribution of electrons in the atom. The only information that was important was the size of the orbit, which was described by “n” the principle quantum number.

Schrodinger's model (Quantum Mechanical Model) allowed the electron to occupy three-dimensional space. It, therefore, required three coordinates, or three quantum numbers, to describe the distribution of electrons in the atom.

Wuy Piolcululugu Give the names of two organs in the chest. 1. ............... 2 m

Arada [10]

Answer:

The organs present inside the chest are :

1. The lungs

2. The heart

Explanation:

The chest cavity is also called as the thoracic cavity. It is the second largest hollow space of the body.In the bottom , it is enclosed by the diaphragm.

This cavity actually contain three space each round with mesothelium , pleural cavity and precardial cavity.

This contain the lungs , the tracheobronchial tree , the heart , the blood vessels which transport the blood between the heart and the lungs.

It also contain the esophagus .

Esophagus is the path through which the food passes from the mouth to the stomach.

. Sulfur dioxide can be produced in the laboratory by the reaction of hydrochloric acid and a sulfite salt such as sodium sulfit

shutvik [7]

Answer:

Mass of SO₂ can be made from 25.0 g of Na₂SO₃ and 22 g of HCl = 12.672 g

Explanation:

SO₂( sulfur dioxide) can be produced in the lab. by the reaction of hydrochloric acid & sulphite salt such as sodium.

the balanced chemical equation is as follows

Na₂SO₃ + 2 HCl → 2 NaCl + SO₂ + H₂O

Moles of Na₂SO₃ = $\frac{Mass}{Molecular mass} =\frac{25}{126} = 0.198$

Moles of HCl = $\frac{mass}{molecular mass}=\frac{22}{36.5}= 0.6$

using mole ratio method to find limiting reagent

For sodium sulfite $\frac{mole}{stoichiometry} = \frac{0.198}{1}= 0.198$

for HCl $\frac{mole}{stoichiometry} = \frac{0.6}{2}= 0.3$

since sodium sulfite is limiting reactant for above chemical reaction

1 mole of Na₂SO₃ produce 1 mole of SO₂

0.198 mole of Na₂SO₃ produce 0.198 mole of SO₂

∴ Mass of SO₂ produce = mole x molar mass of SO₂

= 0.198 x 64

= 12.672 g

Classify each of the four compounds as a conjugated, isolated, or cumulated diene. Compound A: Two alkenes are joined by a sigma

Lina20 [59]

Explanation:

Conjugated diene is the one that contains alternate double bonds in its structure. That means both the double bonds are separated by a single bond.

Cumulated diene is the one that contains two double bonds on a single atom. This means it has two double bonds continuously.

Isolated double-bonded compound has a single bond isolated by two to three single bonds.

Compound A: Two alkenes are joined by a sigma bond.

For example:

$-CH_2=CH-CH=CH2-$

It is a conjugated diene.

Compound B: Two alkenes are joined by a C H 2 group.

It is a cumulative diene.

Compound C: Two alkenes are joined by C H 2 C H 2.

Then it is an isolated alkene.

Compound D: A cyclohexene has a double bond between carbons 1 and 2. Carbon 3 is an sp 2 carbon that is bonded to another s p 2 carbon with an alkyl substituent.

Hence, compound D is a conjugated diene.
