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.

Nh3 is a weak base (kb = 1.8 × 10–5 m) and so the salt nh4cl acts as a weak acid. what is the ph of a solution that is 0.013 m i
ankoles [38]
First, we need to get the value of Ka:

when Ka = Kw / Kb 

we have Kb = 1.8 x 10^-5 

and Kw = 3.99 x 10^-16  so, by substitution:

Ka = (3.99 x 10^-16) /  (1.8 x 10^-5) = 2.2 x 10^-11

by using the ICE table :

                 NH4+  + H2O →NH3 +  H+
intial          0.013                       0         0 

change       -X                          +X      +X

Equ        (0.013-X)                      X         X

when Ka = [NH3][H+] / [NH4+] 

by substitution:

2.2 x 10^-11 = X^2 / (0.013 - X)  by solving this equation for X

∴X = 5.35 x 10^-7

∴[H+] = X = 5.35 x 10^-7

∴PH = - ㏒[H+]
 
        = -㏒(5.35 x 10^-7)
        = 6.27

Distinguish between temperature and thermal energy
MissTica

Answer:

<u>The difference between temperature and thermal energy is that temperature measures the average kinetic speed of molecules and thermal energy is the total kinetic energy of all particles in a given substance.</u> Convection occurs when energy is transferred while the mass of a substance moves. The temperature is measured in Celsius, Kelvin, and Fahrenheit. The temperature does not depend on the quantity of the substance – it is related to the average kinetic energy of the particles. The thermal energy depends on the quantity of the substance – it is related to the total kinetic energy of the particles.
