Answer:

A) carbon  - 2

B) cobalt  - 3

C) sulfur   - 2

D) fluorine   - 1

E) titanium   - 2

F) germanium  - 2

Explanation:

Hund's rule of maximum multiplicity:-

Firstly, every orbital which is present in the sublevel is singly occupied and then the orbital is doubly occupied.  

(A) Carbon.

The electronic configuration is -  

1s^22s^22p^2

Thus, 2s orbital is fully filled and p orbital can singly filled 3 electrons. Thus, Carbon has 2 singly occupied orbitals.

(B) Cobalt.

The electronic configuration is -  

1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^63d^{7}4s^2

Thus, 4s orbital is fully filled and d orbital can singly filled 5 electrons. Thus, 4 electrons will be paired in 2 orbitals and 3 orbitals will be singly filled in cobalt.

(C) Sulfur.

The electronic configuration is -  

1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^4

Thus, 3s orbital is fully filled and p orbital can singly filled 3 electrons. Thus, 2 electrons will be paired in 1 orbital and 2 orbitals will be singly filled in sulfur.

D) fluorine

The electronic configuration is -  

1s^22s^22p^5

Thus, 2s orbital is fully filled and p orbital can singly filled 3 electrons. Thus, 4 electrons will be paired in 2 orbitals and 1 orbital will be singly filled in fluorine.

E) Titanium

The electronic configuration is -  

1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^63d^{2}4s^2

Thus, 4s orbital is fully filled and d orbital can singly filled 5 electrons. Thus, 2 orbitals will be singly filled in titanium.

F) Germanium

The electronic configuration is -  

1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^63d^{10}4s^24p^2

Thus, 4s, 3d orbitals are fully filled and p orbital can singly filled 3 electrons. Thus, Germanium has 2 singly occupied orbitals.

Solutions of lead(II) nitrate and potassium iodide were combined in a test tube.
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

Explanation: When solutions of potassium iodide and lead nitrate are combined?

The lead nitrate solution contains particles (ions) of lead, and the potassium iodide solution contains particles of iodide. When the solutions mix, the lead particles and iodide particles combine and create two new compounds, a yellow solid called lead iodide and a white solid called potassium nitrate. Chemical Equation Balancer Pb(NO3)2 + KI = KNO3 + PbI2. Potassium iodide and lead(II) nitrate are combined and undergo a double replacement reaction. Potassium iodide reacts with lead(II) nitrate and produces lead(II) iodide and potassium nitrate. Potassium nitrate is water soluble. The reaction is an example of a metathesis reaction, which involves the exchange of ions between the Pb(NO3)2 and KI. The Pb+2 ends up going after the I- resulting in the formation of PbI2, and the K+ ends up combining with the NO3- forming KNO3. NO3- All nitrates are soluble. ... (Many acid phosphates are soluble.)

What is the affect of increasing the water's mass?how does it reflect it's temperature?
Nikolay [14]
I assume what you're asking about is, how does the temperature changes when we increase water's mass, according the formula for heat ? 
Well the formula is : Q=m\cdot c\cdot \Delta t (where Q is heat, m is mass, c is specific heat and \Delta t is change in temperature. So according this formula, increasing mass will increase the substance's heat, but won't effect it's temperature since they are not related. Unless,  if you want to keep the substance's heat constant, in that case when you increase it's mass you will have to decrease the temperature
