Answer:

A) calcium-0 B) gallium-1 C) silicon-2 D) vanadium-3 E) carbon-2 F) neon-0

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) Calcium.

The electronic configuration is -  

1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^2

Thus, 4s orbital is fully filled and thus there is no singly filled orbital in calcium.

(B) Gallium.

The electronic configuration is -  

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

Thus, 4s orbital is fully filled and p orbital can singly filled 3 electrons. Thus, no electrons will be paired and thus, 1 orbital will be singly filled in gallium.

(C) Silicon.

The electronic configuration is -  

1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^2

Thus, 3s orbital is fully filled and p orbital can singly filled 3 electrons. Thus, no electrons will be paired and thus, 2 orbitals will be singly filled in silicon.

D) Vanadium

The electronic configuration is -  

1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^63d^{3}4s^2

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

(E) 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.

F) Neon

The electronic configuration is -  

1s^22s^22p^6

Thus, 2s orbital is fully filled and p orbital can singly filled 3 electrons which is also fully filled. So, there is no singly filled orbital in neon.

How many grams of ethylene glycol (c2h6o2 must be added to 1.25 kg of water to produce a solution that freezes at -5.88 ∘c?
e-lub [12.9K]
The freezing point depression is calculated through the equation,
                                    ΔT = (kf)  x m 
where ΔT is the difference in temperature, kf is the freezing point depression constant (1.86°C/m), and m is the molality. Substituting the known values,
                                   5.88 = (1.86)(m)
m is equal to 3.16m

Recall that molality is calculated through the equation,
                                  molality = number of mols / kg of solvent
                                       number of mols = (3.16)(1.25) = 3.95 moles
Then, we multiply the calculated amount in moles with the molar mass of ethylene glycol and the answer would be 244.9 g.

If 5.57 g of Ag2O is sealed in a 75.0-mL tube filled with 760 torr of N2 gas at 28 ∘C, and the tube is heated to 310 ∘C, the Ag2
Snezhnost [94]

Answer: Total pressure = 7293.2 torr or 9.60 atm

Explanation:

<em>Total pressure = partial pressure of nitrogen + partial pressure of oxygen</em>

The partial pressure due to nitrogen is determined using the equation of Gay-Lussac's law: <em>P₁/T₁=P₂/T₂</em>

P₁ = 760 torr = 1atm, T₁ = 28∘C = (273+28)K = 301k, P₂ = ?, T₂ = 310∘C =(310+273)K = 583K

P₂ = P₁ T₂/ T₁

P₂ = 760 * 583 / 301 = 1472.03 torr

The pressure due to Oxygen gas produced is calculated thus:

Balanced equation of the decomposition of Ag₂O at s.t.p. is as follows;

2Ag₂O ----> 4Ag + O₂(g)

2 moles of Ag₂O produces 1 mole of O₂

molar mass of Ag₂O = (2*108 + 16)g = 232g/mol

molar volume of gas at s.t.p. = 22.4L

2*232g i.e. 464g of Ag₂O produces 22.4L of O₂

5.57g of Ag₂O will produce 5.57g*22.4L/464g = 0.269L or 269mL of O₂

Using the General gas equation  P₁V₁/T₁=P₂V₂/T₂

P₁ = 1atm = 760 torr, V₁ = 269mL, T₁=273K, P₂ = ?, V₂= 75mL, T₂ = 583K

P₂ = P₁V₁T₂/V₂T₁

P₂ = 760*269*583 / 75*273

P₂ = 5821.17 torr

Total pressure = (1472.03 + 5821.17) torr

Total pressure = 7293.2 torr or 9.60 atm

How many particles are in a 151 g sample of Li2O?
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

3.052 × 10^24 particles

Explanation:

To get the number of particles (nA) in a substance, we multiply the number of moles of the substance by Avogadro's number (6.02 × 10^23)

The mass of Li2O given in this question is as follows: 151grams.

To convert this mass value to moles, we use;

moles = mass/molar mass

Molar mass of Li2O = 6.9(2) + 16

= 13.8 + 16

= 29.8g/mol

Mole = 151/29.8g

mole = 5.07moles

number of particles (nA) of Li2O = 5.07 × 6.02 × 10^23

= 30.52 × 10^23

= 3.052 × 10^24 particles.
