The concept used here is the Le Chatelier's principle. When a disturbance is introduced to the system, it favors the direction of reaction that minimizes the disturbance to regain equilibrium.
In endothermic reactions, the forward reaction is favored when the temperature is low. Otherwise, the reverse reaction is favored. When you add the amounts of substances on the reactant side, more products would formed favoring the forward reaction. If you increase concentration on the product side, you form more reactants so it would favor the reverse reaction. Lastly, since 10 moles of gases are needed in the reactant side, it would be favored during high pressure reaction.
Answer and Explanation:
a) The direction is shown in the cube diagram attached to this solution.
b) the angle between two planes (h₁, k₁, l₁) and (h₂, k₂, l₂) is given by the formula,
Cos Φ = (h₁h₂ + k₁k₂ + l₁)/√((h₁² + k₁² + l₁²)(h₂² + k₂² + l₂²))
For (111) and (112)
Cos Φ = (1.1 + 1.1 + 1.2)/√((1² + 1² + 1²)(1² + 1² + 2²))
Cos Φ = (1 + 1 + 2)/√((1+1+1)(1+1+4))
Cos Φ = 4/√(3×6)
Cos Φ = 4/√18
Φ = cos⁻¹ (4/√18) = 19.56°
c) equation 3.3 is missing from the question, I would be back to provide the answers to that as soon as the equation is provided!
Hope this Helps!!
Explanations:- Part 1: We could count the total number of electrons by looking at the electron configurations. Both of these electrons configurations have 47 electrons. If we look at the periodic table then 47 is the atomic number of silver. So, the name of the element is silver and its represented as Ag.
Part 2: As per the rule, Completely filled and half filled orbitals are more stable. First electron configuration has 9 electrons in 4d and we know that d is more stable if it has 5 electrons(half filled) or it has 10 electrons(full filled).
For stability reasons, one of the electron from 5s goes to 4d and for this reason the second electron configuration is found most often in nature for silver.
Few other examples are Cr and Cu.
