Answer:

there are three equivalent bonding MOs of equal energy and one unique bonding MO.

Explanation:

Let us recall that according to the principles of the molecular orbital theory, when a compound is formed, the number of bonding molecular orbitals must be equal to the number of antibonding molecular orbitals.

Now methane is formed from one carbon atom and four hydrogen atoms. There are four bonding molecular orbitals and four antibonding molecular orbitals.

Three out of the four bonding molecular orbitals are degenerate while one is unique.

The triple bond is in the first place, not the 3rd because we have to choose the smallest possible number. That means the name will be: ‘but-1-yne’ or ‘1-butyne’

Answer: The concentration of H_2SO_4 is 0.234 M

Explanation:

According to the neutralization law,

n_1M_1V_1=n_2M_2V_2

where,

n_1 = basicity H_2SO_4 = 2

M_1 = molarity of H_2SO_4 solution = ?

V_1 = volume of  H_2SO_4 solution = 50.0 ml

n_2 = acidity of NaOH = 1

M_1 = molarity of NaOH solution = 0.375 M

V_1 = volume of  NaOH solution = 62.5 ml

Putting in the values we get:

2\times M_1\times 50.0=1\times 0.375\times 62.5

M_1=0.234M

Therefore concentration of H_2SO_4 is 0.234 M
