Answer:
1. 1
2. 2
3. 6
4. 8
Explanation:
Valence electrons can be defined as the number of electrons present in the outermost shell of an atom. Valence electrons are used to determine whether an atom or group of elements found in a periodic table can bond with others. Thus, this property is typically used to determine the chemical properties of elements.
1. Li is the symbol for the chemical element known as Lithium: it has 1 valence electron. The electronic configuration of lithium is 1s²2s¹
2. Mg is the symbol for the chemical element known as Magnesium: it has 2 valence electrons. The electronic configuration of magnesium is 1s²2s²2p63s²
3. O is the symbol for the chemical element known as Oxygen: it has 6 valence electrons. The electronic configuration of magnesium is 1s²2s²2p⁴.
4. Ne is the symbol for the chemical element known as Neon: it has 8 valence electrons.
The given formula for heat, Q=mc(Tf-Ti), is the best way to solve such problems with changes in temperature. It can be said that m is the mass of the substance. C is the specific heat of the substance. The term (Tf-Ti) is the change in temperature.
Q = mc(Tf-Ti) = 480g(0.96 J/g-C)(234-22) = 97689.6 Joules of heat
Answer:
is the total pressure of the tank.
Explanation:
Partial pressures of nitrogen = 
Partial pressure of oxygen = 
Total pressure of gases in the tank = P
Applying Dalton's law of partial pressures :
is the total pressure of the tank.
Answer:
an increase in 1-butene was observed when t-butoxide was used
Explanation:
When a base reacts with an alkyl halide, an elimination product is formed. This reaction is an E2 reaction.
Here we are to compare the reaction of two different bases with one substrate; 2-bromobutane. Both reactions occur by the E2 mechanism but follow different transition states due to the size of the base.
The Saytzeff product, 2-butene, is obtained when the methoxide is used while the non Saytzeff product, 1-butene, is obtained when t-butoxide is used.
The Saytzeff rule is reliable in predicting the major products of simple elimination reactions of alkyl halides given the fact that a small/strong bases is used for the elimination reaction. Therefore hydroxide, methoxide and ethoxide bases give similar results for the same alkyl halide substrate. Bulky bases such as tert-butoxide tend to yield a higher percentage of the non Saytzeff product and this is usually attributed to steric hindrance.
