Mixing of pure orbitals having nearly equal energy to form equal number of completely new orbitals is said to be hybridization.

For the compound, CH_3CH_2CH_3 the electronic configuration of the atoms, carbon and hydrogen are:

Carbon (atomic number=6): In ground state= 1s^{2}2s^{2}2p^{2}

In excited state: 1s^{2}2s^{1}2p^{3}

Hydrogen (atomic number=1): 1s^{1}

All the bonds in the compound is single bond(\sigma-bond) that is they are formed by head on collision of the orbitals.

The structure of the compound is shown in the image.

The Carbon-Hydrogen bond is formed by overlapping of s-orbital of hydrogen to p-orbital of carbon.

In order to complete the octet the required number of electrons for carbon is 4 and for hydrogen is 1. So, the electron in 1s^{1} of hydrogen will overlap to the 2p^{3}-orbital of carbon.

Thus, the hybridization of Hydrogen is s-hybridization and the hybridization of Carbon is sp^{3}-hybridization.

The hybridization of each atom is shown in the image.

Draw a schematic of the hydrogen atom with the single proton in the nucleus, and the n=1, n=2, n=3, and n=4 energy level options
max2010maxim [7]

Explanation:

According to Bohr's postulates, the electron in the present in the lower energy level can absorb energy and exits to higher energy level. Also, when this electron returns back to its orbit, it emits some energy.

Since the hydrogen consists of 1 electron and 1 proton. The lowest energy configuration of the hydrogen is when n =1 or, when the electron is present in the K-shell or the ground state.

The possible transition for the electron given in the question is :

n = 2, 3 and 4

The schematic diagram of the hydrogen atom consisting of these four quantum levels in which the electron can jump (Absorption) and comeback to from these energy levels (emission) .

What assumptions do we make in order to use the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation? a. Both the weak acid and its conjugate base are
zepelin [54]

Answer:

The final and initial concentration of the acid and it's conjugate base are approximately equal, that is we use the weak acid approximation.

Explanation:

The Henderson-Hasselbalch is used to calculate the pH of a buffer solution. It depends on the weak acid approximation.

Since the weak acid ionizes only to a small extent, then we can say that [HA] ≈ [HA]i

Where [HA] = final concentration of the acid and [HA]i = initial concentration of the acid.

It also follows that [A^-] ≈ [A^-]i where [A^-] and[A^-]i refer to final and initial concentrations of the conjugate base hence the answer above.

This diagram shows the forces acting on a car. The center dot represents the car, and the arrows represent the forces acting on
Mariulka [41]

Answer : The correct option is B- Towards the left.

Solution : Given,

Force on car in upward direction, F_1 = 6000 N

Force on car in downward direction, F_2 = 6000 N

Force on car in right direction, F_3 = 5000 N

Force on car in left direction, F_4 = 6000 N

Force : Force is equal to the mass multiplied by the acceleration. The force is directly proportional to the acceleration.

Formula :  F =  m × a

where, F is force, m is mass and a is acceleration.

From the given diagram we conclude that the F_1 and F_2 are in opposite direction and the force acting on car are same. So, their net force is zero.

And in case of F_3 and F_4, the net force will not be zero because force acting on car are different. The car will accelerate towards left direction because F_4 is higher than the F_3.

So, the car will accelerate towards left direction.
