Answer:

All the drugs ever formed are compounds. An element in itself can't cure a disease, but couple with other elements, most probably also with carbon, it can attain attributes that may help in fighting diseases. Organic drugs are also manufactured by scientists by using animals and plant parts and replicating them. Compounds also make up non-living things. Salt (NaCl) is a classical example of this.

How many moles of silicon are in 5.9 X 10 to the 24 power atoms of silicon​
Dimas [21]

Answer:

9.79740949850 moles

Explanation:

  • 1 mole = Avogardo's Number <<6.022 E 23 <<particles, atoms, etc.>>
  • This problem can be solved using dimensional analysis by multiplying atoms (5.9E24 atoms) by (1) mole and then dividing the number by Avogardo's number (6.022 E 23 atoms).
  • Note: E = * 10

Side Note: Please let me know if you need any clarifications about this!

1. Using the Slater rule, determine the effective nuclear charge of platinum.
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

Z* = 3.55

Explanation:

Slater rule says that:

Z*= Z - S

Z* be the nuclear effective charge

Z is the nuclear charge

S is the shielding constant

First we write the electronic configuration of platinum:1s^{2} 2s^{2} 2p^{6} 3s^{2} 3p^{6} 3d^{10} 4s^{2} 4p^{6} 4d^{10} 5s^{2} 5p^{6} 4f^{14} 5d^{9} 6s^{1}

The first Slater rule says that we need to group:

(1s^{2}) (2s, 2p)^{8} (3s, 3p)^{8} (3d^{10}) (4s, 4p)^{8} (4d^{10}) (5s, 5p)^{8} (4f^{14}) (5d^{9}) (6s^{1})

The second rule says that the electrons to the right are not shielding, but we are going to solve the exercise for the last level (6s), so we don't have electrons to the right.

For the third rule we have two considerations, if is ns or np and if is nd or nf:

For our case, we have an electro that is in ns, so the rule says that

-electrons within same group shield 0.35, except the 1s which shield 0.30

-electrons within the n-1 group shield 0.85

-electrons within the n-2 or lower groups shield 1.00

Now we can proceed with the calculation:

The first consideration in the third rule does not apply as we only have one electron on this level.

The second consideration will be as follow for the level 5, where we have 17 electrons.

Finally the third consideration will be for levels 1, 2, 3 and 4, where we have 14 for 4f, 10 for 4d, 8 for 4s and 4p, 10 for 3d, 8 for 3s and 3p, 8 for 2s and 2p and finally 2 for 1s, which gives 60 electrons.

So the result for S=(60*1.00 + 17*0.85) = 74.45

And the equation is: Z* = 78 - 74.45

So Z* = 3.55
