Answer:

Atom X and Atom Y occupy the same position in the periodic table because they are isotopes

Explanation:

The table is as follow;

Atom/Charged particle # of neutrons Mass #

X 6 12

Y 7 13

As we know the Mass number is the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom so,

Mass # = # of Protons + # of Neutrons

Solving above equation for protons,

# of Protons = Mass # - No. of Neutrons

For Atom X:

# of Protons = 12 - 6

# of Protons = 6

For Atom Y:

# of Protons = 13 - 7

# of Protons = 6

Hence, it can be concluded that the number of protons for both atoms are the same. Also, we also know that atoms having same no. of protons (atomic number) are the same elements.

Conclusion:

Atom X and Atom Y are two isotopes of Carbon with atomic number 12. One isotope has a mass number of 13 and have a chemical symbol of ¹³₆C while the other has mass number of 12 and with chemical symbol of ¹²₆C.

An Arrhenius acid is a substance that dissociates in water to form hydrogen ions or protons.

<h3>What is an Arrhenius acid?</h3>

An Arrhenius acid increases the number of $H^+$ ions in the water.

According to the Arrhenius theory, a substance which has hydrogen atom and can easily give hydrogen ion or proton in its aqueous solution is called as Arrhenius acid.

For example, when hydrochloric acid is dissolved in water, it forms chloride ion ( $Cl^-$ ) and hydronium ion ( $H_3O^+$ ).

What type of bonding is butane

Aliun [14]

It's worth noting that butane is also referred to as n-butane. ... Based on the diagram, butane is considered to be an alkane. It not only contains single covalent bonds, but also has carbon and hydrogen atoms present in its structure.

Need help with chemistry question

horrorfan [7]

This is a multiple question and here are all the answers.

Qestion 1.) Which is not a permissible set of quantum numbers? Identify the subshell (if the quantum numbers identify a possible state).

I. n = 2, ℓ = 0, mℓ = 0

II. n = 3, ℓ = 2, mℓ = 2

III. n = 2, ℓ = 1, mℓ = –1

IV. n = 3, ℓ = 3, mℓ = 0

V. n = 4, ℓ = 3, mℓ = –3

Answer:

The combination that is not permissible is IV. n = 3, ℓ = 3, mℓ = 0.

Se below to identify the subshells.

Explanation:

The electrons are identified by a set of four quantum numbers.

The first quantum number, n, is the principal quantum number and it tells the shell. The second quantum number,ℓ , is the azymuthal quantum number and it tells the subshell.

The letters used to indicate the subshells are:

s: ℓ = 0

p: ℓ = 1

d: ℓ = 2

f: ℓ = 3

The third and fourth quantum numbers are mℓ (magnetic quantum number) and s (spin).

The rules that apply to predict which quantum numbers are possible are:

n: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 (an integer greater than 0)

ℓ: 0, 1, 2, 3, ..., n-1 (an integer less than n)

mℓ: an integer from - ℓ to + ℓ

s: - 1/2 or +1/2

Two electrons in an atom cannot have the same set of 4 quantum numbers.

With that:

I. n = 2, ℓ = 0, mℓ = 0

This combination of three quantum numbers is permissible, since n is a positive integer, ℓ is less than n, and mℓ is in the interval +ℓ to - ℓ.

The combination n = 2 and ℓ = 0 means the subshell is 2p.

II. n = 3, ℓ = 2, mℓ = 2

This combination of three quantum numbers is permissible, since n is a positive integer, ℓ is less than n, and mℓ is in the interval +ℓ to - ℓ.

The combination n = 3 and ℓ = 2 means the subshell is 3d.

III. n = 2, ℓ = 1, mℓ = –1

This combination of three quantum numbers is permissible, since n is a positive integer, ℓ is less than n, and mℓ is in the interval +ℓ to - ℓ.

The combination n = 2 and ℓ = 1 means the subshell is 2p.

IV. n = 3, ℓ = 3, mℓ = 0

This set of three quantum numbers is not permissible, since ℓ = 3 is not less than n = 3.

V. n = 4, ℓ = 3, mℓ = –3

This set of three quantum numbers is permissible, since n is a positive integer, ℓ is less than n, and mℓ is in the interval +ℓ to - ℓ.

The combination n = 4 and ℓ = 3 means the subshell is 4f.

Question 2.)What is the difference between the 2pz and the 3pz orbitals? Which quantum numbers in the orbital designation are different? Which will be the same? What does this indicate about the orbitals?

Answer:

The difference between $2p_z$ and $3p_z$ (note that the letter z is a subscript) is in the first quantum number.

The first quantum number indicates the main energy level and so it is related with the size of the orbital.

So, the 3pz orbital is bigger than the 2pz orbital.

The second quantum number is related to the letter p, so the same letter indicates the same shape of the orbital. Remember the table for the letters used to indicate the subshells are:

s: ℓ = 0

p: ℓ = 1

d: ℓ = 2

f: ℓ = 3

So, the scond quantum number for the two orbitals is ℓ = 1.

The subscript indicates the space orientation. So, since both orbitals have the same subscript, z, they have the same orientation.

In conclusion, the only difference between those orbitals is the size of the orbitals, but they have the same shape and orientation.

3.)What is the maximum number of electrons that can have n = 3 and ms = + ½ ?

Answer:

9 electrons

Explanation:

Using the rules, for n = 3

ℓ can be 0, 1, or 2;

mℓ can be 0 for ℓ = 0,

mℓ can be -1, 0, or -1 for for ℓ = 1, and

mℓ can be -2, -1, 0, +1, or +2 for ℓ = 2,

You can get the possible sets of quantum numbers (with n = 3):

(3, 0, 0, +1/2)

(3, 0, 0, -1/2)

(3, 1, 0, +1/2)

(3, 1, 0, -1/2)

(3, 1, 1, +1/2)

(3, 1, 1, -1/2)

(3, 1, -1, +1/2)

(3, 1, -1, -1/2)

(3, 2, 0, +1/2)

(3, 2, 0, -1/2)

(3, 2, -2, +1/2)

(3, 2, -2, -1/2)

(3, 2, -1, +1/2)

(3, 2, -1, -1/2)

(3, 2, 1, +1/2)

(3, 2, 1, -1/2)

(3, 2, 2, +1/2)

(3, 2, 2, -1/2)

So, those are a total of 18 electrons from which half have n = 3 and ms = +1/2.

Hence, 9 electrons can have n = 3 and ms = +1/2.

What is Chemical Bonding?<br>Explain please.

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

Chemical bonds are how atoms, and even molecules join together.

Explanation:

There are two main types of primary chemical bonds. While secondary links relate to molecules, primary ties are atom to atom. This answer explains basic primary bonds only.

One must comprehend what a valence shell is before I proceed. The outer electron orbital of an atom is known as the valence shell. Most of the time (except from hydrogen), atoms desire to have 8 electrons in their valence shell, thus they form bonds with other atoms to accomplish this.

<em>All bonds result in a new chemically different molecule. Now, the two types are:</em>

Covalent: When two atoms combine their electrons to fill their valence shells. The atoms are joined together by this "sharing."
Ionic: When one atom <em>transfers</em> an electron to another atom in order to fulfill the valence electron requirement. Because electrons have a negative charge, the atom that <em>produced </em>them gains a positive charge as a result of losing its negative charge. The atom that received the electron therefore acquires a negative charge. Because opposing charges attract, it seems sense that the charged atoms bind as a result.
