Answer:

a. 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d 9 - the element is zinc and this is an excited state configuration

b. 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d10 4p6 5s2 4d10 5p6 6s2 4f 14 5d7 -the element is iridium and this is a ground state configuration

Explanation:

The ground state is the lowest energy state of an atom while excite states of Zn atom are higher energy states.

The configuration, 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d 9 applies to zinc atom in excited state while the configuration 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d10 4p6 5s2 4d10 5p6 6s2 4f 14 5d7 applies to iridium atom in ground state.

Calcium oxide reacts with water in a combination reaction to produce calcium hydroxide. Ca) + H2O --&gt; Ca(OH)2 In a particular
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

Percent yield = 92.5%

Explanation:

The question asks for the percent yield which can be defined as:

\frac{actual yield}{theoretical yield} .100

Where the actual yield is <em>how much product was obtained</em>, in this case 6.11 g of Ca(OH)₂, and the theoretical yield is <em>how much product could be obtained with the given reactants theoretically</em>, that is if the reaction would work perfectly. So we need to calculate first the theoretical yield.

1. First lets write the chemical equation reaction correctly and check that it is balanced:

CaO + H₂O → Ca(OH)₂

2. Calculate the amount of product Ca(OH)₂ that can be obtained with the given reactants (theoretical yield), which are 5.00g of CaO and excess of water. So the amount of CaO will determined how much Ca(OH)₂ we can obtained.

For this we'll use the molar ratio between CaO and Ca(OH)₂ which we see it is 1:1. For every mol of CaO we'll obtain a mol of Ca(OH)₂. So lets convert the 5.00 g of CaO to moles:

 Molar Mass of CaO: 40.078 + 15.999 = 56.077 g/mol

 moles of CaO = 5.00 g / 56.077 g/mol = 0.08916 moles

As we said before from the molar ratio moles of Ca(OH)₂ = moles of CaO

So the moles of Ca(OH)₂ that can be obtained are 56.077 g/mol

We need to convert this value to grams:

 Molar Mass of Ca(OH)₂ = 40.078 + (15.999 + 1.008)*2 = 74.092 g/mol

Theoretical yield of Ca(OH)₂ = 0.08916 moles x 74.092 g/mol = 6.606 g

3. Calculate the percent yield:

\frac{actual yield}{theoretical yield} .100

Percent yield = (6.11 g / 6.606g) x 100 = 92.5 %

in the following reaction, how many grams of benzene (C6H6) will produce 42 grams of CO2? 2C6H6 + 15O2 → 12CO2 + 6H2O
Mrrafil [7]

Answer: -

12.41 g

Explanation: -

Mass of CO₂ = 42 g

Molar mass of CO₂ = 12 x 1 + 16 x 2 = 44 g / mol

Number of moles of CO₂ = \frac{42}{44 g/mol}

= 0.9545 mol

The balanced chemical equation for this process is

2C₆H₆ + 15O₂ → 12CO₂ + 6H₂O

From the balanced chemical equation we see

12 mol of CO₂ is produced from 2 mol of C₆H₆

0.9545 mol of CO₂ is produced from \frac{2 mol C6H6 x 0.9545 mol  CO2}{12 mol CO2}

= 0.159 mol of C₆H₆

Molar mass of C₆H₆ = 12 x 6 + 1 x 6 =78 g /mol

Mass of C₆H₆ =Molar mass x Number of moles

= 78 g / mol x 0.159 mol

= 12.41 g
