Answer:
It means the chemical entity is a radical
Explanation:
When we talk of unsaturation, we are referring to the number of pi-bonds in a chemical entity. The alkane, alkene and alkyne organic family are used to as common examples to explain the term unsaturation.
While alkynes have 3 bonds, it must be understood that they have 2 pi bonds only and as such their degree of saturation is two.
In the case of an alkene, there is only one single pi bond and as such the degree of unsaturation is 1.
Now in this case, we have a fractional 0.5 degree of unsaturation alongside the 3 to make a total of 3.5. So what’s the issue here?
The fractional part shows that the chemical entity we are dealing with here is a radical. While the integer 3 shows that there are 3 pi-bonds, the half pi bond remaining tells us that there is a missing electron on one of the atoms involved in the chemical bonding and as such, the 1/2 extra degree of unsaturation tends to tell us this.
Kindly recall that a radical is a chemical entity within which we have at the least an unpaired electron.
Electrons have less mass than a neutron.
Answer:
This element is Rubidium (Rb) and has an average atomic mass of 85.468 u
Explanation:
The average mass of an element is calculated by taking the average of the atomic masses of its stable isotopes.
The enitre atomic mass = 100 % or 1
⇒ this consists of X-85 with 72.17 % abundance with atomic massof 84.9118 g/mol
72.17 % = 0.7217
⇒ this consists of X-87 with 27.83 % abundance with atomic mass of 86.9092 g/mol
27.83 % = 0.2783
To calculate the mass of this isotope we use the following:
0.7271 * 84.9118 + 0.2783 * 86.9092 =85.468 g/mol
This element is Rubidium(Rb) and has an average atomic mass of 85.468 u
Answer:
vigorous
Explanation:
As you go down group one of the periodic table, the reactions become and more vigorous.
Answer:
The solution is 50 %wt
Explanation:
50% wt is a sort of concentration and means, that 50 g of solute (in this case, the potassium bromide) dissolved in 100 g of water.
It is the same to say, that there are 50g of KBr for every 100g of H₂O
