Answer:

b. The bromine (Br2) has reacted with the benzene, leaving fewer bromine molecules in solution.

Explanation:

Colour is caused by absorption of light of the frequency of “complementary colours”. Exactly which frequencies molecules absorb depends on the arrangement of electrons. Obviously, to break the Br-Br bond and the C=C bond in the reactants and replace them with two C-H bonds is a significant reordering of electrons and so the new molecule is no longer able to absorb the same frequencies as previously. Hence, a colour change, in this case from orange to colourless.

What is the ground state electron configuration for Ru2+?
Natali5045456 [20]

Electronic configuration: The distribution or arrangement of electrons of a molecule or an atom in molecular or atomic orbitals.

Ground state electron configuration: The distribution of electrons of an atom or molecule around the nucleus with lower levels of energy.

Now, Ru stands for Ruthenium with atomic number 44. It is a metal and thus, has ability to lose electrons and, becomes positively charged ion.

One can write the electronic configuration with the help of atomic number and Afbau principle, Pauli exclusion principle etc.

Ground electronic Configuration is as follows:

Ru = s^{2}2s^{2}2p^{6}3s^{2}3p^{6}4s^{2}3d^{10}4p^{6}5s^{1}4d^{7}

Soft Hand notation: [Kr]4d^{7}5s^{1}

Now, when ruthenium loses two electrons then it becomes Ru^{+2}, thus electron configuration becomes

Soft Hand notation: [Kr]4d^{6}

The ground state electronic configuration of Ruthenium is [Kr]4d^{7}5s^{1} and when it loses two electrons, then electronic configuration becomes [Kr]4d^{6} ( Ru^{+2})

The maximum number of electrons in a single d subshell is:
son4ous [18]

10 electrons

Explanation:

The maximum number of electrons in a single d-subshell is 10 electrons.

The d-notation stands for an azimuthal quantum number or secondary quantum number.

This subshell can only accommodate a maximum of 10 electrons.

d- subshell has five orbitals

Each orbital is able to accommodate 2 electrons.

 Therefore 5 x 2 = 10 electrons

HC2H3O2 (aq) + H2O (l) ⇔ C2H3O2- (aq) + H3O+ (aq) Ka = 1.8 x 10-5
marin [14]

The concentration of [H3O⁺]=2.86 x 10⁻⁶ M

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

In general, the weak acid ionization reaction  

HA (aq) ---> H⁺ (aq) + A⁻ (aq)  

Ka's value  

\large {\boxed {\bold {Ka \: = \: \frac {[H ^ +] [A ^ -]} {[HA]}}}}

Reaction

HC₂H₃O₂ (aq) + H₂O (l) ⇔  (aq) + H₃O⁺ (aq) Ka = 1.8 x 10⁻⁵

\tt Ka=\dfrac{[C_2H_3O^{2-}[H_3O^+]]}{[HC_2H_3O_2]}}\\\\1.8\times 10^{-5}=\dfrac{0.22\times [H_3O^+]}{0.035}

[H₃O⁺]=2.86 x 10⁻⁶ M

1. When frequency increases energy:
liraira [26]
B

When frequency increases, as does the energy, but wavelength decreases. It also works vise versa; if wavelength were to increase, its frequency and energy will decrease.
