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.

What is normality in chemistry?​
Advocard [28]

Answer:

a measure of concentration equal to the gram equivalent weight per liter of solution.

Explanation:

Gram equivalent weight is the measure of the reactive capacity of a molecule. The solute's role in the reaction determines the solution's normality. Normality is also known as the equivalent concentration of a solution.

By replacing hardware safety features with software controls in the therac-25 machine, aecl was able to?
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Therac-25, AECL was able to reduce costs by replacing hardware safety features with software controls.

the Therac-25 was a laptop-controlled radiation therapy machine produced by Atomic energy state Canada limited in 1982 after the Therac-6 and Therac-20 units. It was involved in at least six accidents between 1985 and 1987, in which patients were given massive overdoses state radiation.

The Therac-25 machine was a state-of-the-art linear accelerator developed by using the company Atomic strength Canada restricted (AECL) and a French company CGR to provide radiation treatment to cancer sufferers. The Therac-25 become the most computerized and complicated radiation therapy device state its time.

Calculate the mass of ethyl alcohol required to prepare 540 grams of C4H6, if the reaction follows the scheme:
kkurt [141]

Answer:

Explanation:

2C₂H₅OH    =   C₄H₆  +  2H₂O  +  H₂

2 mole               1 mole

molecular weight of ethyl alcohol

mol weight of C₂H₅OH = 46 gm            

mol weight of C₄H₆  54 gm

540 gm of C₄H₆ = 10 mole

10 mole of C₄H₆ will require 20 mol of ethyl alcohol .

20 mole of ethyl alcohol = 20  x 46

= 920 gm

ethyl alcohol required = 920 gm .
