How many valence electrons does the following element have? 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s1

What minimum energy is required to excite a vibration in HF?

Elodia [21]

Answer:

The energy of a vibrating molecule is quantized much like the energy of an electron in the hydrogen atom. The energy levels of a vibrating molecule are given by the equation: En=(n+21)hv where n is a quantum number with possible values of 1, 2, ... and v is the frequency of vibration.

A chemical formula shows the kinds and numbers of _____ in the smallest representative unit of a substance.

Firdavs [7]

A chemical formula shows the kinds and numbers of <u>atoms</u> in the smallest representative unit of a substance.

<u>Explanation:</u>

In chemistry, a formula unit is the empirical formula of "ionic or covalent network solid compound" that is used as an independent entity for "stoichiometric calculations". This formula is a representation of a molecule that uses chemical symbols.

The unit is the lowest whole number ratio of ions represented in an ionic compound. It gives the numbers of atoms representing the "smallest representative" unit of a substance. The number of atoms also tells us about the chemical and physical properties of the compound formed.

When wood burns, the mass of the ash is less than the mass of the original wood. Yet the law of conservation of matter says that

satela [25.4K]

Explanation:

According to the law of the conservation of mass, 'mass is conserved in a chemical reaction. The mass cannot be created nor be destroyed in a chemical process'.

This law holds true for the burning of wood also. Although the wood burns to produce ash which weighs less than wood but also, it produces some soot and other gases and the sum of the masses of all these is equal to the sum of the masses of wood and oxygen that reacted with it.

An interpenetrating primitive cubic structure like that of CsCl with anions in the corners has an edge length of 664 pm. If the

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

the ionic radius of the anion $r^- = 312.52 \ pm$

Explanation:

From the diagram shown below :

The anion $Cl^-$ is located at the corners

The cation $Cs^+$ is located at the body center

The Body diagonal length = $\sqrt{3 \ a }$

∴ $2 \ r^+ \ + 2r^- \ = \sqrt{3 \ a} \\ \\ r^+ +r^- = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} a$

Given that :

$\frac{r^+}{r^-} =0.84$ (i.e the ratio of the ionic radius of the cation to the ionic radius of

the anion )

$0.84r^- \ + r^- \ = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}a \\ \\ 1.84 r^- = \frac{3}{2}a \\ \\ r^- = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2*1.84}a$

Also ; a = 664 pm

Then :

$r^- = \frac{\sqrt{3} }{2*1.84}*664 \ pm\\ \\ r^- = 312.52 \ pm$

Therefore, the ionic radius of the anion $r^- = 312.52 \ pm$

Does the excess reactant get used up completely in a reaction??

Alex787 [66]

Answer:

In a chemical reaction, reactants that are not used up when the reaction is finished are called excess reagents. The reagent that is completely used up or reacted is called the limiting reagent, because its quantity limits the amount of products formed.
