5 0

Answer:

(c) P and Sb

Explanation:

We can determine the number of valence electrons of an element:

  • If it belongs to Groups 1 and 2, the number of valence electrons is equal to the number of group and the differential electron occupies the s subshell.
  • If it belongs to the groups 13-18, the number of valence electrons is equal to: "Number of group - 10" and the differential electron occupies the p subshell.

Which pair of elements have the same valence electronic configuration of np³?

(a) O and Se. NO. They belong to the group 16 and the valence electron configuration is ns² np⁴.

(b) Ge and Pb. NO. They belong to the group 14 and the valence electron configuration is ns² np².

(c) P and Sb. YES. They belong to the group 15 and the valence electron configuration is ns² np³.

(d) K and Mg. NO. They belong to the groups 1 and 2 and the valence electron configuration is ns¹ and ns².

(e) Al and Ga. NO. They belong to the group 13 and the valence electron configuration is ns² np¹.

The equilibrium concentrations of the reactants and products are [ HA ] = 0.260 M [HA]=0.260 M , [ H + ] = 2.00 × 10 − 4 M [H+]=
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

pKa of the acid HA with given equilibrium concentrations is 6.8

Explanation:

The dissolution reaction is:

HA ⇔ H⁺ + A⁻

So at equilibrium, Ka is calculated as below

Ka = [H⁺] x [A⁻] / [HA] = 2.00 x 10⁻⁴ x 2.00 x 10⁻⁴ / 0.260

    = 15.38 x 10⁻⁸

Hence, by definition,

pKa = -log(Ka) = - log(15.38 x 10⁻⁸) = 6.813
