Answer:

Option a and d are true

Explanation:

Antibonding orbitals are higher in energy than bonding orbitals this is due to the decrease in electron density between the nuclei.

An antibonding orbital is an atomic or molecular orbital whose energy increases as its constituent atoms are brought closer together - thus generating a repulsive force that hinders bonding.

Electrons cannot occupy an antibonding orbital is false because if the bonding orbitals are filled according to Pauli exclusion principle, then any additional electrons will occupy antibonding orbitals.

The probability is 100% for finding an electron at the nucleus in a π* orbital is false.

Pi orbital (π orbital), is an antibonding molecular orbital and is formed by the overlapping of two bonded nuclei. Here we see one nodal plane passing through the two nuclei, like pi bonds.

s orbitals can make only 'σ' a lower energy molecular orbital or 'σ∗' a higher energy molecular orbitals in adjacent atoms when they overlap. This is true

Which graphic below shows the correct orientation of each water molecule when it is near the cl- ion in the aqueous solution?

andrew-mc [135]

The question is missing the graphics required to answer which I have attached as an image.

There are four different representations of the orientation of water molecules around chloride anion. Let's first analyze the water molecule.

We have H-O-H as the structure of water. The oxygen atom is more electronegative than the hydrogen atoms, which results in a partial positive charge on the hydrogen atoms and a partial negative charge on the oxygen atom.

The chloride anion is a negative charge. Therefore, the water molecules should orient themselves with the hydrogen atoms facing the chlorine atom as the partial positive charge on the hydrogen atoms will be attracted to the negative charge of the chlorine atom.

The correct representation is shown in graph 3 which shows all hydrogen atoms facing the chlorine anion.

Solubility

Very soluble in water, soluble in ethanol (96 per cent).

IDENTIFICATION

A. 1 ml of solution S (see Tests) gives reaction (b) of acetates.

B. 1 ml of solution S gives reaction (a) of sodium.

C. Loss on drying (As shown in the Relevant Test).

Function: Buffer.

REQUIREMENTS

Identification: A 1:20 aqueous solution gives positive tests for Sodium and for Acetate.

Assay: Not less than 99.0% and not more than 101.0% of C2H3NaO2 after drying.

Alkalinity Anhydrous: Not more than 0.2%; Trihydrate: Not more than 0.05%.

Lead: Not more than 2 mg/kg.

Loss on Drying: Anhydrous: Not more than 1.0%; Trihydrate: Between 36.0% and 41.0%.

Potassium Compounds: Passes test.
