Electrons are both gained and lost.

<u>Answer:</u> The electrons are transferred during a redox reaction.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Redox reaction is defined as the reaction in which oxidation and reduction reaction occur simultaneously.

Oxidation reaction is defined as the reaction in which an atom looses its electrons. The oxidation number of the atom gets increased during this reaction.

X\rightarrow X^{n+}+ne^-

Reduction reaction is defined as the reaction in which an atom gains electrons. The oxidation number of the atom gets reduced during this reaction.

X^{n+}+ne^-\rightarrow X

Electrons are transferred from one atom to another in this type of reaction.

The density of mercury is 5,427 kg/m3. If the density of water is 1.0 g/mL, will mercury float or sink in water?
Ksenya-84 [330]
1 kg =1000 g = 10³ g,
1 m = 100 cm  ,
(1m)³  = (100 cm)³= (10²)³ cm³ = 10⁶ cm³  or 10⁶ mL

5,427 kg/m³ = <span>5,427 kg/ 1m³ = (5427 * 10³ g)/ 10⁶ mL=5427/10³ g/mL=
=5427/1000 g/mL = 5.427 g/mL 

</span>5.427 g/mL   is density of Mercury, and 1.0 g/mL is density  of water.
Density of Mercury is more then density of the water, so
mercury will sink in the water.

Calculate the energy required to ionize a ground state hydrogen atom. report your answer in kilojoules.
hjlf

First we find for the wavelength of the photon released due to change in energy level. We use the Rydberg equation:

1/ʎ = R [1/n1^2 – 1/n2^2]

where,

ʎ is the wavelength

R is the rydbergs constant = 1.097×10^7 m^-1

n1 is the 1st energy level = 1

n2 is the higher energy level = infinity, so 1/n2 = 0

 

Calculating for ʎ:

1/ʎ = 1.097×10^7 m^-1 * [1/1^2 – 0]

ʎ = 9.1158 x 10^-8 m

 

Then calculate the energy using Plancks equation:

E = hc/ʎ

where,

h is plancks constant = 6.626×10^−34 J s

c is speed of light = 3x10^8 m/s

 

E = (6.626×10^−34 J s * 3x10^8 m/s) / 9.1158 x 10^-8 m

E = 2.18 x 10^-18 J = 2.18 x 10^-21 kJ

 

This is still per atom, so multiply by Avogadros number = 6.022 x 10^23 atoms / mol:

E = (2.18 x 10^-21 kJ / atom) * (6.022 x 10^23 atoms / mol)

E = 1312 kJ/mol

What is the highest occupied molecular orbital in the O2 molecule?
Aleonysh [2.5K]

H2 is known to exist. For dihydrogen, H2, we can identify the frontier molecular orbitals (FMOs). The highest occupied molecular orbital (or HOMO) is the σ (sigma) 1s MO. The lowest unoccupied MO (LUMO) is the σ* (sigma star) 1s MO which is antibonding.
