Answer: C)Anion, it would gain 2 electrons to satisfy the octet rule.
Explanation:
Electronic configuration represents the total number of electrons that a neutral element contains. We add all the superscripts to know the number of electrons in an atom.
The electrons are filled according to Afbau's rule in order of increasing energies and thus the electronic configuration of oxygen with 8 electrons is
The cation is formed by loss of electrons and anions are formed by gain of electrons.
In order to complete its octet and get stable, it gains 2 electrons and thus would form an anion.
Answer:
The boiling point is 308.27 K (35.27°C)
Explanation:
The chemical reaction for the boiling of titanium tetrachloride is shown below:
Ti
⇒ Ti
ΔH°
(Ti) = -804.2 kJ/mol
ΔH° (Ti) = -763.2 kJ/mol
Therefore,
ΔH° = ΔH° (Ti) - ΔH° (Ti) = -763.2 - (-804.2) = 41 kJ/mol = 41000 J/mol
Similarly,
s°(Ti) = 221.9 J/(mol*K)
s°(Ti) = 354.9 J/(mol*K)
Therefore,
s° = s° (Ti) - s°(Ti) = 354.9 - 221.9 = 133 J/(mol*K)
Thus, T = ΔH° /s° = [41000 J/mol]/[133 J/(mol*K)] = 308. 27 K or 35.27°C
Therefore, the boiling point of titanium tetrachloride is 308.27 K or 35.27°C.
Answer:
(b). Mass and distance.
Explanation:
The gravitational force between two objects is given by Newton's law of universal gravitation. The formula is as follows :
Here,
G is universal gravitational constant
r is the distance between two objects
It is very clear that the gravitational force is directly proportional to the product of masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
Hence, the two quantities are used to predict gravitational force according to Newton's law of universal gravitation are mass and distance.
Answer:
The u (amu is the old unit name) is 1/12 of the weight of an 12C atom. The way the u is chosen ensures that all core and atom masses are multiples of 1(±0.1) u.
Explanation:
Further explanation if needed...
Carbon 12 was chosen because the chemical atomic weights based on C12 are almost identical to the chemical atomic weights based on the natural mix of oxygen. Simply because the atomic mass is defined as 1/12 of the mass of 12C. Others isotopes of carbon (13C mostly, with an abundance of 1.1% approximately) account for an average atomic mass slightly above 12.
