Answer:- 
.
Explanation:- Atomic number for fluorine(F) is 9 and it's electron configuration is 
. 
is formed when F loses one electron from it's valence shell.
Second shell is the valence shell for fluorine and so it loses one electron from 2p to form and the electron configuration of the ion becomes .
Answer:
C.) HOCl Ka=3.5x10^-8
Explanation:
In order to a construct a buffer of pH= 7.0 we need to find the pKa values of all the acids given below
we Know that
pKa= -log(Ka)
therefore
A) pKa of HClO2 = -log(1.2 x 10^-2)
=1.9208
B) similarly PKa of HF= -log(7.2 x 1 0^-4)= 2.7644
C) pKa of HOCl= -log(3.5 x 1 0^-8)= 7.45
D) pKa of HCN = -log(4 x 1 0^-10)= 9.3979
If we consider the Henderson- Hasselbalch equation for the calculation of the pH of the buffer solution
The weak acid for making the buffer must have a pKa value near to the desired pH of the weak acid.
So, near to value, pH=7.0. , the only option is HOCl whose pKa value is 7.45.
Hence, HOCl will be chosen for buffer construction.
Answer:
True
Explanation:
We know that the zero-point-energy of a C-D system is quite lower than the zero point energy of the C-H bond so the C-D bond is stronger.
Kinetic isotope effect refers to the change in the rate of reaction owing to a change of one of the atoms of the reactants by replacing it with one of its isotopes.
Since we know that the C-D bond is stronger than the C-H bond, when we replace hydrogen with deuterium in a reaction's rate determining step we experience a little lag in the rate of reaction. This is referred to as the kinetic isotope effect in physical organic chemistry.
We are given the base dissociation constant, Kb, for Pyridine (C5H5N) which is 1.4x10^-9. The acid dissociation constant, Ka for the Pyridium ion or the conjugate acid of Pyridine is to be determined. We know from our chemistry classes that:
Kw = Kb * Ka
where Kw is always equal to 1x10^-14
so, to solve for Ka of Pyridium ion, substitute Kb to the equation together with Kw and solve for Ka:
1x10^-14 = 1.4x10^-9 * Ka
solve for Ka
Ka = 7.14x10^-6
Therefore, the acid dissociation constant of Pyridinium ion is 7.14x10^-6.
