What is the percentage of s-character in an sp hybrid? O 25% 50% o 75% O 66%
marishachu [46]

Answer: 50%

Explanation:

The number of electron pairs are 2 for hybridization to be sp and the electronic geometry of the molecule will be linear.

1. percentage of s character in sp hybrid orbital =\frac{\text {number of s orbitals}}{\text {total number of orbitals}}=\frac{1}{2}\times 100=50\%

2. percentage of s character in sp^2 hybrid orbital =\frac{\text {number of s orbitals}}{\text {total number of orbitals}}=\frac{1}{3}\times 100=33.3\%

3. percentage of s character in sp^3 hybrid orbital =\frac{\text {number of s orbitals}}{\text {total number of orbitals}}=\frac{1}{4}\times 100=25\%

Thus percentage of s-character in an sp hybrid is 50%.

A gas stream containing n-hexane in nitrogen with a relative saturation of 0.58 (as a fraction, multiply by 100% if you prefer %
kondor19780726 [428]

This problem is describing a gas mixture whose mole fraction of hexane in nitrogen is 0.58 and which is being fed to a condenser at 75 °C and 3.0 atm, obtaining a product at 3.0 atm and 20 °C, so that the removed heat from the system is required.

In this case, it is recommended to write the enthalpy for each substance as follows:

H_{C-6}=y_{C-6}C_v(T_b-Ti)+\Delta _vH+C_v(T_f-Tb)\\\\H_{N_2}=y_{N_2}C_v(T_f-Ti)

Whereas the specific heat of liquid and gaseous n-hexane are about 200 J/(mol*K) and 160 J/(mol*K) respectively, its condensation enthalpy is 31.5 kJ/mol, boiling point is 69 °C and the specific heat of gaseous nitrogen is about 29.1 J/(mol*K) according to the NIST data tables and y_{C-6} and y_{N_2} are the mole fractions in the gaseous mixture. Next, we proceed to the calculation of both heat terms as shown below:

H_{C-6}=0.58*200(69-75)+(-31500)+160(20-69)=-40036J/mol\\\\H_{N_2}=0.42*29.1(20-75)=-672.21J/mol

It is seen that the heat released by the nitrogen is neglectable in comparison to n-hexanes, however, a rigorous calculation is being presented. Then, we add the previously calculated enthalpies to compute the amount of heat that is removed by the condenser:

Q=-40036+(-672.21)=-40708.21J

Finally we convert this result to kJ:

Q=-40708.21J*\frac{1kJ}{1000J}\\\\Q=-40.7kJ

An atom of chlorine with a mass number of 37 contains __ protons and __ neutrons.
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

Its in the Explanation

Explanation:

Here's what I got.

Aluminium-27 is an isotope of aluminium characterized by the fact that is has a mass number equal to  

27

.

Now, an atom's mass number tells you the total number of protons and of neutrons that atom has in its nucleus. Since you're dealing with an isotope of aluminum, it follows that this atom must have the exact same number of protons in its nucleus.

The number of protons an atom has in its nucleus is given by the atomic number. A quick looks in the periodic table will show that aluminum has an atomic number equal to  

13

.

This means that any atom that is an isotope of aluminum will have  

13

protons in its nucleus.

Since you're dealing with a neutral atom, the number of electrons that surround the nucleus must be equal to the number of protons found in the nucleus.

Therefore, the aluminium-27 isotope will have  

13

electrons surrounding its nucleus.

Finally, use the known mass number to determine how many neutrons you have

mass number

=

no. of protons

+

no. of neutrons

no. of neutrons = 27 − 13 = 14

Your welcome :)
