Answer:
there is no d electron that can be promoted via the absorption of visible light
Explanation:
One of the properties of transition elements is the possession of incompletely filled d orbitals. This property accounts for their unique colours.
The colours of transition metal compounds stem from d-d transition of electrons due to the presence of vacant d orbitals of appropriate energy to which electrons could be promoted.
For elements whose atoms have a d10 configuration, such vacant orbitals does not exist hence their compounds are not colored.
Sometimes, the colour of transition metal compounds stem from ligand to metal charge transfer(LMCT) for instance in KMnO4.
Answer:
2023.04 g
Explanation:
Magnetite reacts with hydrogen to produce Iron metal and steam. Steam instead of water is produced as the reaction occurs at temperatures above the boiling point of water.
Fe₃O₄ + 4 H₂ → 3 Fe +4 H₂O
From the equation, 1 mole of Fe₃O₄ reacts with 4 moles of H₂.
69.76 grams of H₂ has the following number of moles.
Number of moles= mass/RAM
=69.76/2
=34.88 moles.
The reaction ratio of Fe₃O₄ to H₂ is 1:4
Thus number of moles of magnetite= (1×34.88)/4
=8.72 moles.
Mass= moles × molecular weight
=8.72 moles × (56×3+16×4)
=2023.04 grams
