Answer:
D) CN⁻
Explanation:
Hund's Rule of Maximum Multiplicity state that electrons go into degenerate orbitals of sub-levels (p,d, and f ) singly before pairing commences. Hund's rule is useful in determining the number of unpaired electrons in an atom. As such, it explains some magnetic properties of elements.
An element whose atoms or molecules contain unpaired electrons is paramagnetic. i.e., weakly attracted to substances in a magnetic field.
On the other hand, the element whose atoms or molecules are filled up with paired electrons is known as diamagnetic, i.e., not attracted by magnetic substances.
According to the molecular orbital theory, the diamagnetic molecule is CN⁻ because of the absence of unpaired electrons.
Answer: it forms cyclopentadienyl radical by homolysis. Allylic 3° free radical is more stable due to resonance
Explanation:
Answer:
The balanced chemical equation: 2 Al + 3Cl2→ 2 AlCl3
Mole-mole relationship: 2 moles Al + 3 moles Cl2→ 2 moles AlCl3
Given: 0.600 moleCl2; 0.500 mole Al
Required: Excess reactant___; Number of moles of AlCl3 produced__
Solution: Use dimensional analysis using the mole-mole rel
0.600 mole Cl2 * 2 moles Al/3 moles Cl2 = 0.4 mole Al
0.5 mole Al* 3 moles Cl2/2 moles Al = 0.75 mole Cl2
Based on the given:
0.6mole Cl2 + 0.4 mole Al ( this is possible based on the given)
0.5mole Al + 0.75 mole Cl2 (this is not possible because the given is only 0.600 mole of Cl 2)
Answer: Excess reactant is Al; Limiting reactant is Cl2
The amount of AlCl3 produced = 0.6 mole Cl2 + 0.4 mole Al = 1.0 mole AlCl3
