Why do the exceptional configurations taught in this class (only 1 electron moves from an s orbital to a d orbital) happen? (cho

ose all that apply)
Because sublevel overlap results in the d sub level of one energy level being very close to the s sublevel of the next energy level

Because full sub levels are more stable than partially filled sub levels

Because half filled sub levels are more stable than partially filled sub levels

Because electrons want to be in the largest sublevel they can find.

Answer:

Because half filled sub levels are more stable than partially filled sub levels

Explanation:

The reason for the exceptional configuration found in some atomic orbitals is due to the special stability of half-filled sub-levels over partially filled ones.

One of the characteristic thing about filling some atomic orbitals we have to bear in mind that there is a stability conferred on an atom by being partially filled.

The energy needed to remove an electron from a half-filled configuration or inert gas configuration is very great.

This is why when there is a choice to have half-filled orbitals, it is desirous to go for this configuration.

6. 100 ml of gaseous hydrocarbon consumes 300
mario62 [17]

Answer:

  • <u><em>a. C₂H₄</em></u>

Explanation:

At constant pressure and temperature, the mole ratio of the gases is equal to their volume ratio (a consequence of Avogadro's law).

Hence, the <em>complete combustion reaction</em> that has a ratio of 100 ml of gaseous hydrocarbon to 300 ml of oxygen, is that whose mole ratio is 1 mol hydrocarbon : 3 mol of oxygen.

Then, you must write the balanced chemical equations for the complete combustion of the four hydrocarbons in the list of choices, and conclude which has such mole ratio (1 mol hydrocarbon : 3 mol oxygen).

A complete combustion reaction of a hydrocarbon is the reaction with oxygen that produces CO₂ and H₂O, along with the release of heat and light.

<u>a. C₂H₄:</u>

  • C₂H₄ (g) + 3O₂ (g) → 2CO₂(g)  + 2H₂O (g)

Precisely, for this reaction the mole ratio is 1 mol C₂H₄: 2 mol O₂, hence, this is the right choice.

The following analysis just shows that the other options are not right.

<u>b. C₂H₂:</u>

  • 2C₂H₂ (g) + 5O₂ (g) → 4CO₂(g)  + 2H₂O (g)

The mole ratio for this reaction is 2 mol C₂H₂ :5 mol O₂.

<u>с. С₃Н₈</u>

  • C₃H₈ (g) + 5O₂ (g) → 3CO₂(g)  + 4H₂O (g)

The mole ratio is 1 mol C₃H₈ : 5 mol O₂

<u>d. C₂H₆</u>

  • 2C₂H₆ (g) +7 O₂ (g) → 4CO₂(g)  + 6H₂O (g)

The mole ratio is 2 mol C₂H₆ : 7 mol O₂

What impact did the Spanish have on the region of South America?
vichka [17]

Answer:

The Spaniards practically went to war with the native Americans in South America, such as the Inca. They also brought diseases to South America. Diseases like smallpox.

Explanation:

Then after effectively killing off most of the native American population the Spanish continued to use South America for resources and they enslaved most of what was left of the non-Spanish and mixed populations. Francisco Pizarro took a page from Cortes' book, capturing Atahualpa, Emperor of the Inca, in 1532 and Cortes was the conquistador who defeated the Aztec Empire in what is now modern day Mexico or Central America.

Explain how you would decide which represents a greater mass: 3.25 x 1022 atoms of Ca or 2.45 grams of Mg?
elena55 [62]

Answer:

  • <u>You need to convert the number of atoms of Ca into mass in grams, using Avogadro's number and the atomic mass of Ca.</u>

Explanation:

The amount of matter is measured in grams. Thus, you need to convert the number of atoms of Ca (calcium) into mass to compare with 2.45 grams of Mg.

To convert the atoms of calcium into mass, you divide by Avogadro's number, to obtain the number of moles of atoms, and then divide by the atomic mass of calcium.

<u />

<u>1. Number of moles, n</u>

      n=\dfrac{\text{number of atoms}}{\text{Avogadro's number}}\\ \\ \\ n=\dfrac{3.25\times 10^{22}}{6.022\times 10^{23}}=0.053969mol

<u />

<u>2. Mass</u>

  • mass = number of moles × atomic mass
  • mass = 0.053969mol × 40.078g/mol = 2.16g

Then, 2.45 g of Mg represent a greaer mass than the 3.25 × 10²² atoms of Ca.
