Which set of these comparisons is INCORRECT? (More stable means it has a more negative energy.) a) The 1s orbital in H is more s

table than the 1s orbital in He+ b) The 2s orbital in He atom is less stable than the 2s orbital in He+ c) The 2s subshell in Li is more stable than the 2p subshell in Li

Answer:

a.

Explanation:

By the Linus Pauling's diagram, we know that the order of the energy of the subshell at the same atom, from the less to the higher, is:

1s < 2s < 2p < 3s < 3p < 4s < 4d ...

As larger is the atom, the attraction energy between the electron and the nuclei is weak. The size of the atom increase from right to left in the periods, and from the top to the bottom in the families. The cations are smaller than the neutral atoms (the attraction is more effective with fewer electrons), and the anions are larger than the neutral atoms. So, in order of size, and also the energy of the similar subshells:

He⁺ < He < H

How higher the energy, less negative it is, so less stable is the orbital.

a. As shown above, the energy of the orbital at H is higher than the energy at the orbital at He⁺, so the 1s orbital is more stable at He⁺, and the sentence is incorrect.

b. As shown above, the energy of the orbital at He is higher than the energy of the orbital He⁺, so the 2s orbital at He is less stable than the 2s orbital at He⁺, and the sentence is correct.

c. From the Linus Pauling's diagram, the energy of 2p is higher than the energy of the 2s, so the 2s subshell is more stable, and the sentence is correct.

The number of neutrons in an atom can be found by subtracting the atomic number from the what?
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

This approximation of mass can be used to easily calculate how many neutrons an element has by simply subtracting the number of protons from the mass number. Protons and neutrons both weigh about one atomic mass unit or amu. Isotopes of the same element will have the same atomic number but different mass numbers.

What term describes a carbon atom that has four different groups bonded to it?
oee [108]
A carbon which is attached to four different atoms or group of atoms with different environment is called as Chiral Carbon or Asymmetric Carbon.

Non-<span>superimposable:
</span>                                     The mirror image (molecule) of chiral carbon cotaining compounds are Non.Superimposable on each other. They are called enantiomers of each other.

Polarized Light and Chiral Carbon:
                                                       When a polarized light is allowed to fall on either enantiomer of chiral compound, it is rotated other clockwise or anti-clockwise.

Examples:
                Below are three axamples of compounds containing chiral carbon.

How many potassium atoms are in 250.0 grams of potassium?
loris [4]

Hi!


The correct option would be 3.85x10^(24)


To find the number of atoms in 250g of potassium, we need to first calculate the number of atoms in


1 mole of Potassium = 39g which contains 6.022x10^(23) atoms of K

<em>(Avogadro's constant value for the amount of molecules/atoms in one mole of any substance)</em>

<em>Solution</em>

So as 39g of Potassium contains 6.022x10^(23) K atoms

1g of Potassium would contain 6.022x10^(23) / 39 = 1.544 x10^(22) atoms

So 250g of Potassium would contain 1.544x10^(22) x 250 = 3.86x10^(24) atoms
