<u>Answer:</u> The outermost valence electron enters the p orbital.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Valence electrons are defined as the electrons which are present in outer most orbital of an atom.

Sulfur is the 16th element of the periodic table having 16 electrons.

Electronic configuration of sulfur atom is 1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^4

The number of valence electrons are 2 + 4 = 6

These 6 electrons enter s-orbital and p-orbital but the outermost valence electron will enter the p-orbital.

Hence, the outermost valence electron enters p orbital.

Wittaler [7]

Answer:

pH = 6.999

The solution is acidic.

Explanation:

HBr is a strong acid, a very strong one.

In water, this acid is totally dissociated.

HBr + H₂O  →  H₃O⁺  +  Br⁻

We can think pH, as - log 7.75×10⁻¹² but this is 11.1

acid pH can't never be higher than 7.

We apply the charge balance:

[H⁺] = [Br⁻] + [OH⁻]

All the protons come from the bromide and the OH⁻ that come from water.

We can also think [OH⁻] = Kw / [H⁺] so:

[H⁺] = [Br⁻] + Kw / [H⁺]

Now, our unknown is [H⁺]

[H⁺] =  7.75×10⁻¹² + 1×10⁻¹⁴ / [H⁺]

[H⁺] = (7.75×10⁻¹² [H⁺] + 1×10⁻¹⁴) /  [H⁺]

This is quadratic equation:  [H⁺]² - 7.75×10⁻¹² [H⁺] - 1×10⁻¹⁴

a = 1 ; b = - 7.75×10⁻¹² ; c = -1×10⁻¹⁴

(-b +- √(b² - 4ac) / (2a)

[H⁺] = 1.000038751×10⁻⁷

- log [H⁺] = pH → 6.999

A very strong acid as HBr, in this case, it is so diluted that its pH is almost neutral.

The lab procedure mentions that not all of the oxone may dissolve after being added to the water because the water may be satura
ollegr [7]

Answer:

The answer is (C) There are more solute molecules than water molecules.

Explanation:

A saturated solution is one in which no more solute can be dissolved or disintegrated into the solvent. When or if the ozone  stops being dissolved in the water, it implies that the water has already taken on more ozone molecules than it can contain, meaning there are more solute molecules (ozone molecules) than there are solvent molecules (water molecules).
