According to the Octet Rule, an element is most stable with ______________ valence electrons

Chemistry
1 answer:

8 0
Eight because an octet has 8 electrons and when it’s full it’s stable. If it’s not full, it’s constantly sharing or borrowing electrons.

Explain why a fluorescent light bulb is not as hot as an incandescent light bulb.
Jet001 [13]

An incandescent bulb becomes hotter than a fluorescent bulb when turned on because in a regular incandescent bulb, there is tungsten wire where electricity is converts into heat. A regular incandescent light bulb requires 4 times more energy than a fluorescent bulb in order to produce the same amount of light. The conversion is such that for a 75-watt bulb, temperature get raised to approximately 2000 K. For such a high temperature, the radiating energy from the wire have some visible light. In such bulbs, 90% of the electricity get consumed in producing heat and only 10% produces light thus, they are not much efficient source of light.

On the other hand, fluorescent bulbs produce light with less amount of heat. In them, 40% of electricity is consumed in producing light and 60% in heat which is very less as compared to heat produced by a incandescent bulb. This is because when it get turned on, mercury atoms inside the bulb collides with electrons and produce UV light  which is then converted into visible light using thin layer of phosphor power present inside the bulb. This produces low amount of heat thus, the bulb stays cooler, the bigger size of bulb also helps in dispersing heat.

Therefore, a fluorescent light bulb is not as hot as an incandescent light bulb.

Answer:

pH = 6.999

The solution is acidic.

Explanation:

HBr is a strong acid, a very strong one.

In water, this acid is totally dissociated.

HBr + H₂O  →  H₃O⁺  +  Br⁻

We can think pH, as - log 7.75×10⁻¹² but this is 11.1

acid pH can't never be higher than 7.

We apply the charge balance:

[H⁺] = [Br⁻] + [OH⁻]

All the protons come from the bromide and the OH⁻ that come from water.

We can also think [OH⁻] = Kw / [H⁺] so:

[H⁺] = [Br⁻] + Kw / [H⁺]

Now, our unknown is [H⁺]

[H⁺] =  7.75×10⁻¹² + 1×10⁻¹⁴ / [H⁺]

[H⁺] = (7.75×10⁻¹² [H⁺] + 1×10⁻¹⁴) /  [H⁺]

This is quadratic equation:  [H⁺]² - 7.75×10⁻¹² [H⁺] - 1×10⁻¹⁴

a = 1 ; b = - 7.75×10⁻¹² ; c = -1×10⁻¹⁴

(-b +- √(b² - 4ac) / (2a)

[H⁺] = 1.000038751×10⁻⁷

- log [H⁺] = pH → 6.999

A very strong acid as HBr, in this case, it is so diluted that its pH is almost neutral.
