How many moles of electrons are transferred when 2.0 moles of aluminum metal react with excess copper(II) nitrate in aqueous sol
mojhsa [17]

Moles of electrons:

The moles of electrons that are transferred are 12F

A balanced equation:

2 moles of Aluminium metal react with excess copper(II) nitrate.

2Al + 3Cu{(NO_3)}_2  \rightarrow 2Al{(NO_3)}_3 +3 Cu

Given:

Moles of Aluminium = 2

As Aluminium goes from 0 to +3 oxidation state

Al \rightarrow Al^{3+} + 3e^-

And copper goes from +2 to 0

Cu^{2+} + 2e^-\rightarrow Cu

On balancing the number of electrons we get:

For 1 mole of Al 6e^- is required.

Therefore for 2 moles of Al,

Total (2\times6)F mole of electrons

Where F= Faraday's constant= 96500 C

So, 12F moles of electrons are transferred.

Determine whether a gas sample was composed of hydrogen or oxygen.
Nuetrik [128]
The test for this is fairly simple.
We take a glowing match or splint near the gas sample, if the glow intensifies, oxygen is present. 
If a lit splint or match goes out with a popping sound, this means that hydrogen is present.

Which of the following statements regarding alpha particles are true? Check all that apply.a. Alpha particles have a mass number
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

The only true statement is:

  • a. <u><em>Alpha particles have a mass number of 4</em></u>

Explanation:

<em>Alpha particles</em> are radiactive particles equivalent to a helium nucleus, so they have two protons and two neutrons.

Hence, alpha particles, α, are represented as:

  • ⁴₂He

The superscript 4 to the left of the chemical symbol is the <em>mass number:</em> 2 protons + 2 neutrons = 4

The subscript 2 to the left of the chemical symbol is the atomic number: 2 protons = 2.

Hence, the statement "a. Alpha particles have a mass number of 4" is true.

As for the other statements, you have:

<em>b. Alpha particles have a nulear charge of +1:</em> <u>false</u>

Since, these particles are the nucleous of the helium atom, the nuclear charge equals the number of protons of this atom: +2. Hence, the statement is false.

c. <em>Alpha particle formation is accompanied by the conversion of a proton into a neutron</em> and d. <em>Alpha particle formation is accompanied by the conversion of a neutron into a proton</em>. <u>(both false</u>)

The conversion of a protons into a neutrons and the conversion of a neutron into a proton are product of other kind of radiactive desintegrations.

  • The conversion of a proton into a neutron involves the emission of a positron ( particle with same mass as the electron but positive charge) from the nucleus, which is represented as ⁰₊₁β.

  • The conversion of a neutron into a proton involves the emssion of an electron from the nucleus, which is the emission of a beta particle represented as ⁰₋₁β.

Therefore, these last two statements are also false.

How many electrons in an atom can share the quantum numbers n = 4 and l = 3?
o-na [289]

Answer:

\boxed{\text{14}}

Explanation:

If l = 3, the electrons are in an f subshell.

The number of orbitals with a quantum number l is 2l + 1, so there

are 2×3 + 1 = 7 f orbitals.

Each orbital can hold two electrons, so the f subshell can hold 14 electrons.

\boxed{\textbf{14 electrons}} \text{ can share the quantum numbers n = 4 and l = 3.}
