Answer:
(a) 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁴
(b) 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁵
(c) sp³
(d) No valence orbital remains unhybridized.
Explanation:
<em>Consider the SCl₂ molecule. </em>
<em>(a) What is the electron configuration of an isolated S atom? </em>
S has 16 electrons. Its electron configuration is 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁴.
<em>(b) What is the electron configuration of an isolated Cl atom? </em>
Cl has 17 electrons. Its electron configuration is 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁵.
<em>(c) What hybrid orbitals should be constructed on the S atom to make the S-Cl bonds in SCl₂? </em>
SCl₂ has a tetrahedral electronic geometry. Therefore, the orbital 3s hybridizes with the 3 orbitals 3 p to form 4 hybrid orbital sp³.
<em>(d) What valence orbitals, if any, remain unhybridized on the S atom in SCl₂?</em>
No valence orbital remains unhybridized.
This solute-solvent interaction will release energy into the surroundings and makes the beaker warm.
<u>Explanation:</u>
The sulfuric acid is dissolved in water and it formed a solvation sphere of water molecules around the sulphur ions. So on stirring the beaker is getting warm. As the beaker is getting warm, this means the reaction occuring between sulfuric acid and water is exothermic reaction.
And so the energy is released into the surroundings. The energy released came from the breaking of bonds of sulfuric acid, as the acid is getting dissociated in water.
So, the release of energy in the surroundings lead to the warming of the beaker. Hence, the solute-solvent interaction release energy into the surroundings.
"John Dalton" is the one scientist among the following choices given in the question that <span>came up with the first widely recognized atomic theory. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the first option or option "A". I hope that this is the answer that has come to your help.</span>
Mole ratio:
MgCl₂ + 2 KOH = Mg(OH)₂ + 2 KCl
2 moles KOH ---------------- 1 mole Mg(OH)₂
4 moles KOH ------------------- moles Mg(OH)₂
moles Mg(OH)₂ = 4 x 1 / 2
= 2 moles of Mg(OH)₂
molar mass Mg(OH)₂ = 58g/mol
mass of Mg(OH)₂ = n x mm
mass of Mg(OH)₂ = 58 x 2
= 116 g of <span> Mg(OH)₂</span>
hope this helps!
