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.

During what meterological (weather) changes does sublimation occur on earth?
insens350 [35]
Sublimation occurs more readily when definite weather circumstances are present such as low relative humidity and dry winds. Sublimation also occurs more at higher altitudes where the air pressure is less than at lower altitudes and energy such as strong sunlight is also needed. Sublimation happens a lot in the south face of Mt. Everest which have low temperatures, strong winds, intense sunlight, very low air pressure and the recipe for sublimation to occur.

What is the specific heat of the solid phase? (Please see picture attached)
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

B.0.2 J/g°C

Explanation:

From the attached picture;

  • Heat attained in the solid phase is 200 Joules
  • Change in temperature is 50°C ( from 0°C to 50°C)
  • Mass of the solid is 20 g

We are required to determine the specific heat capacity of the substance;

  • We need to know that Quantity of heat is given by the product of mass,specific heat capacity and change in temperature.
  • That is; Q = mcΔT

Rearranging the formula;

c = Q ÷ mΔT

Therefore;

Specific heat = 200 J ÷ (20 g × 50°c)

                      = 0.2 J/g°C

Thus, the specific heat of the solid is 0.2 J/g°C

NH3 is a weak base (Kb = 1.8 × 10–5) and so the salt NH4Cl acts as a weak acid. What is the pH of a solution that is 0.084 M in
kolbaska11 [484]
Answer is: pH of solution is 5,17.
Kb(NH₃) = 1,8·10⁻⁵.
c(NH₄Cl) = 0,084 M = 0,084 mol/L.
Chemical reaction: NH₄⁺ + H₂O → NH₃ + H₃O⁺.
Ka · Kb = 10⁻¹⁴.
Ka(NH₄⁺) = 10⁻¹⁴ ÷ 1,8·10⁻⁵.
Ka(NH₄⁺) = 5,55·10⁻¹⁰.
[H₃O⁺] = [NH₃]  = x.
Ka(NH₄⁺) = [H₃O⁺] · [NH₃] ÷ [NH₄⁺].
5,55·10⁻¹⁰ = x² ÷ (0,084 M - x).
Solve quadratic equation: x = [H₃O⁺] = 6,8·10⁻⁶ M.
pH = -log[H₃O⁺].
pH = -log(6,8·10⁻⁶ M) = 5,17.

If 2.00 g of N2 occupies 1.25 L space, how many moles of N2
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

n₂ =1.4 mol

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of nitrogen = 2 g

Initial Volume occupy by nitrogen = 1.25 L

Final volume occupy by nitrogen = 25.0 L

Final number of moles = ?

Solution;

Formula:

V₁ / n₁ = V₂ / n₂

Number of moles of nitrogen:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 2 g/ 28 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.07 mol

Now we will put the values in formula:

V₁ / n₁ = V₂ / n₂

n₂ = V₂× n₁ /V₁

n₂ = 25 L × 0.07 mol /  1.25 L

n₂ = 1.75 L. mol / 1.25 L

n₂ =1.4 mol
