Given that the density of TlCl(s) is 7.00 g/cm3 and that the length of an edge of a unit cell is 385 pm, determine how many form

ula units of TlCl there are in a unit cell.

Here's my best guess
the volume of the unit cell is (385*10^-12)^3=5.7066*10^-29 m^3
multiply by density to get mass mass = (7 g/cm^3)*(100^3 cm^3 / 1^3 m^3) * 5.7066*10^-29 m^3= 3.99466*10^-22 g
covert to moles 3.99466*10^-22 g * 1 mol / 239.82 g = 1.6657 *10^-24 mol
convert to number of units

1.6657 *10^-24 mol * 6.23*10^23 units/mol = 1.04

385 pm = 3.85*10^(-8) cm

The volume of the unit cell is the cube of that, which is 5.71*10^(-23) cm^3. Since the ratio of mass to volume (i.e. the density) must be the same no matter what amount of TlCl you have, you can say:
7 = x/(5.71*10^(-23)), where x is the mass of the unit cell. Solving for x, you get 4*10^(-22) g.

The mass of a molecule of TlCl is 240 amu, which in grams is 4*10^(-22) g. The mass of the unit cell and the mass of a molecule of TlCl is the same. Therefore there is one formula unit of TlCl per unit cell.

If the spin of one electron in an orbital is clockwise, what is the spin of the other electron in that orbital?
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

The other electron must have anticlockwise spin.

Explanation:

According to the pauli exclusion principle, the two elecrton present in same orbital must have opposite spin.

If the one electron is clockwise the other must be in anti clockwise direction. The clockwise direction is represented by the sign +1/2 while anti clockwise direction is represented by -1/2.

According the pauli principle, the two electrons must have different fourth electronic quantum number. The electron in same orbital have same first three quantum number i.e, n=1 l=0 and ml =0 in case of first subshell.

What is the volume, in liters, of 2.00 moles of hydrogen at STP?
Ber [7]
The volume of one mole of any gas at STP is 22.4 L. So, at STP, the volume of 2.00 moles of hydrogen gas would be (22.4 L/mol)(2 mol H2) = 44.8 L.

Plutonium−239 (t1/2 = 2.41 × 104 yr) represents a serious nuclear waste hazard. if seven half-lives are required to reach a tole
sashaice [31]
The half-life of Plutonium−239, t1/2 is 2.41 × 10⁴<span> yrs

time taken to reach tolerable level = seven half-lives
                                                      = 7 x t1/2
                                                      = 7 x </span>2.41 × 10⁴ yrs
                                                      = 168700 yrs
                                                      = 1.687 x 10⁵ yrs

Hence, the period of time that <span>Plutonium-239 must be stored is </span>1.687 x 10⁵ years.
