The first excited electronic energy level of the helium atom is 3.13 x 10-18 J above the ground level. Estimate the temperature

at which the electronic motion will begin to make a significant contribution to the heat capacity. That is, at what temperature will the ratio of the population of the first excited state to the ground state be 5.0%?

Answer:

75603.86473 K

Explanation:

Given that:

The 1st excited electronic energy level of He atom = 3.13 × 10⁻¹⁸  J

The objective of this question is to estimate the temperature at which the ratio of the population will be 5.0 between the first excited state to the ground state.

The formula for estimating the ratio of population in 1st excited state to the ground state can be computed as:

\dfrac{N_2}{N_1} = e ^{^{-\dfrac{(E_2-E_1)}{KT}}} =   e ^{^{-\dfrac{(\Delta E)}{KT}}}

From the above equation:

Δ E = energy difference =  3.13 × 10⁻¹⁸  J

k = Boltzmann constant = 1.38 × 10⁻²³  J/K

\dfrac{N_2}{N_1} = 0.5

Thus:

0.05 =e^{^{ -\dfrac{3.13 \times 10^{-18} \ J}{1.38\times 10^{-23 \ J/K}\times T}}}

In (0.05) = { -\dfrac{3.13 \times 10^{-18} \ J}{1.38\times 10^{-23 \ J/K}\times T}}}

-3.00 = { -\dfrac{3.13 \times 10^{-18} \ J}{1.38\times 10^{-23 \ J/K}\times T}}}

-3.00 = -226811.5942 \times \dfrac{1}{T}

T =  \dfrac{-226811.5942}{-3.00 }

T = 75603.86473 K

B) Ethane has the formula C2H6. In terms of electronic structure,
k0ka [10]

Answer:

There is one single covalent bond between two carbon atoms.

Explanation:

We know that sharing of electrons form covalent bonds.

If we look upon K,L,M ,N shells of the carbon and hydrogen atoms.

We found that Hydrogen is having only  1 electron in K shell.

And Carbon on the other hand is having 2 electrons in K shell and 4 electrons in L shell.

So carbon have  4 valence electrons,and it can share 4 bonds with any relevant atom to complete its octet.

And Hydrogen requires  1 electron to complete its doublet.

Alkane general formula C_{n}H_{2n+2}

For ethane n=2

C_{2}H_{4+2} = C_{2}H_{6}

1 Carbon atom is shared by  3 Hydrogen.

The remaining one electron (4-3)=1 of carbon will be shared with another carbon atom.

An image of the sharing of electrons attached below,

Hence we have only  1 covalent bond between the two.

Jamal is working with three ionic compounds: sodium chloride, calcium sulfide, and barium oxide. His teacher asks him which are
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

option A is correct  ( sodium, calcium and barium)

Explanation:

Given compounds:

Sodium chloride , calcium sulfide, barium oxide

We know that metals form positive ions. In order to solve the problem we must identify the metals from given compounds.

Na⁺Cl⁻

Ca²⁺S²⁻

Ba²⁺O²⁻

We can see that sodium, calcium and barium contain positive charges.

Thus option A is correct.

Because sodium have one valance electron. When it combine with chlorine sodium lose its one electron to complete the octet and chlorine accept it to complete its octet. Thus sodium form positive ion and chlorine form negative ion.

Similarly barium and calcium are present in group 2. Both have two valance electron. When they lose them cation are formed.

Other option are incorrect because,

Option B have sulfur and oxygen which are anion.

Option C have chlorine which is also anion

Option D have chlorine, sulfur and oxygen that are anions.
