What is 2n^2 rule ( of science)​

Chemistry
1 answer:
lozanna [386]3 years ago
3 0

2n² rule:

This rule is used to determine number of electrons in particular shell.

n=1 means K shell

n=2 means L shell

n=3 means M shell

n=4means N shell

The first K shell can hold upto 2 electrons, L shell can hold up to 8, third M shell can hold up to 18and the fourth N shell can hold upto 32 electrons. This rule of arrangement of electrons according to the shell is known 2n2 rule where n means number of shell.

For example: There is one proton in the nucleus of hydrogen atom, which moves in K shell path. It has no neutron.

Use the images to explain why carbon forms a bond with four chlorine atoms.
lina2011 [118]

Explanation:

The Lewis dot diagram shows how electrons participate in a bond with Carbon and Chlorine. This is shown by the sticks and the 2 paired electrons near the carbon atom which represent the bonds. These electrons form these bonds because they form octets when they are bonded which most molecules and compounds follow

Why are nanowhiskers used to repel stains on fabrics??
WINSTONCH [101]

Nanowhiskers or cellulose nanofibers are nano-structured cellulose produced by bacteria. They have relatively high crystallinity and ability to form a dense network held together by inter-fibrillar bonds that has the tendency to act as a barrier through their film-forming properties to which they can repel stains on fabric.

The potential energy diagram shows the gain and loss of potential energy as water molecules decompose into hydrogen and oxygen.
Dovator [93]

Answer:

  • The<em> diagram</em> with the five<em> labels</em> of the parts is in the image attached. Please, see the image.

Explanation:

<u>1) General explanation:</u> a <em>potential chemical energy diagram</em> is used to show how the <em>reactants</em> gain energy until they reach the <em>activation energy</em>, form the <em>activated complex</em>, and release part of the energy to form the <em>products</em>.

The difference between the chemical potential energy of the products and the reactants is the <em>enthalpy of the reaction</em>:

  • ΔH rxn = ΔH products - ΔH reactants.

The labels that correspond to each part of the diagram are explained next.

<em><u>2) Reactants:</u></em>

This is the substances at the start, so they appear on the left bottom side of the diagram.

<em><u>3) Activation energy:</u></em>

It is the energy that the reactants must reach (the highest point) in order to the reaction occurs.

<u><em>4) Activated complex:</em></u>

This is the intermediate state and of highest energy. The reactants have formed a complex at mid way between the reactants and the products.

<u><em>5) Products:</em></u>

These are the substances formed when the reaction is completed. They are lower in energy than the activated complex. They can be either higher or lower in energy than the reactants. The products are shown to the right of the diagram.

<em><u>6) Enthalpy of the reaction:</u></em>

The enthalpy of the reaction is the difference in energy of the products and the reactants. In this case, since, the products are higher in energy, it means that the reaction absorbed energy and it is an endothermic reaction.
