The answer is <span>D.when the aim is to show electron distributions in shells. This is because there are some instances when elements don't possess a regular or normal electron configuration. There are those who have special electron configurations wherein a lower subshell isn't completely filled before occupying a higher subshell. It is best to visualize such cases using the orbital notation.</span>

What is the mass (in grams) of 169 mole of CF4
Sergeu [11.5K]
The answer will depend on the number of significant figures you want in your answer, so I can't give you a solid answer, but the process is still the same: you convert from grams to moles by using the molar mass.

You can calculate the molar mass of carbon tetrafluoride from the periodic table, by adding the molar mass of 1 atom of C and 4 atoms of F. Round the total molar mass to the appropriate number and multiply 169 moles by the molar mass you just calculated.

Hope this helps!

The volume of a gas at 17.5 psi decreases from 1.8L to 750mL. What is the new pressure of the gas in arm?
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

P₂ = 2.88 atm

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial volume of gas = 1.8 L

Final volume = 750 mL

Initial pressure = 17.5 Psi

Final pressure = ?

Solution:

We will convert the units first:

Initial pressure = 17.5  /14.696 = 1.2 atm

Final volume = 750 mL ×1L/1000L = 0.75 L

The given problem will be solved through the Boly's law,

"The volume of given amount of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure by keeping the temperature and number of moles constant"

Mathematical expression:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

P₁ = Initial pressure

V₁ = initial volume

P₂ = final pressure

V₂ = final volume  

Now we will put the values in formula,

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

1.2 atm × 1.8 L =  P₂  ×0.75 L

P₂ = 2.16 atm. L/ 0.75 L

P₂ = 2.88 atm
