The atoms that would be expected to be diamagnetic in the ground state is magnesium

The magnetism of an atom refers to its electronic configuration. A diamagnetic atom is an atom whose electrons are all paired.

A paired electron is an electron that occurs in pairs in its orbital shell.

At their respective ground state, the electronic configuration of the given elements are as follows:

The electronic configuration of magnesium is 1s²2s²2p⁶3s². As such its a diamagnetic atom.

The electronic configuration of Potassium is 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s¹. Hence, Potassium has one unpaired electron in its outermost shell.

The electronic configuration of Chlorine is 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁵. Hence, Chlorine has one unpaired electron in its outermost shell.

The electronic configuration of Cobalt is 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶3d⁷4s². Hence, the unpaired electrons of Cobalt in its outermost shell are three.

Therefore, the atoms that are diamagnetic in the ground state is magnesium.

How many times a one pound (2.2 kg) block of iron can be split in half before it stops being iron.

aleksley [76]

Answer:

Number of times a one pound (2.2 kg) block of iron can be split in half before it stops being iron

= 84.29 times

Explanation:

Atoms : It is the smallest indivisible particle of the matter .

The atom can not be further breakdown .

Here in this question , we have to find the number of atoms (because it is the last possible situation for breaking of atom)

Mole : The quantity of the substance that contain as many particles as present in 12 g of C-12.It is quantity which Avogadro number(N0) of particles

$N_{0}=6.022\times 10^{23}$

1.First calculate the number of moles of Fe in 2.2Kg Block

Mass of Iron (Fe) = 55.845 amu

Molar mass of Iron = 55.845 g

Given mass = 2.2 kg

1 kg = 1000 g

2.2 kg = 2200 g

$moles = \frac{given\ mass}{Molar\ mass}$

$moles = \frac{2200}{55.845}Moles of Fe = 39.39 2.Calculate the number of particles of Fe in 39.39 moles of Block[tex]moles = \frac{Number\ of\ Particles}{Avogadro\ number}$

$Avogadro\ number = 6.022\times 10^{23}$

moles = 39.39

$39.39 = \frac{Number\ of\ Particles}{N_{0}}$

$Number\ of\ Particles=39.39\times 6.022\times 10^{23}$

$Number\ of\ Particles= 2.37\times 10^{25}$

$2.37\times 10^{25}$ atoms

3.Calculate Number of time(n), the block is split into -Half 

$2^{n}=2.37\times 10^{25}$

Take log both side ,

$n\ log2 = log(2.37\times 10^{25})$

Solve for n, you get

n= 84.29 (convert it to nearest whole number)

n = 84 times

n-Butane fuel (C4H10) is burned with the stoichiometric amount of air. Determine the mass fraction of each product. Also, calcul

tia_tia [17]

Answer:

0.1852
0.0947
0.7201
3.0345 kg CO $_{2}$ / Kg C $_{4}$ H $_{10}$
15.3848 Kg air / kg C $_{4}$ H $_{10}$

Explanation:

Molar masses of each product are :

Butane = 58 kg /kmol

Oxygen = 32 kg/kmol

Nitrogen = 28 kg/kmol

water = 18 kg/kmol

1) Calculate the mass fraction of carbon dioxide

= ( 4 * 44 ) / ( (5 * 18) + (4 *44 )+ (24.44 * 28) )

= 176 / 950.32

= 0.1852

2) Calculate the mass fraction of water

= ( 5 * 18 ) / (( 5* 18 ) + ( 4*44) + ( 24.44 * 28 ))

= 90 / 950.32

= 0.0947

3) Calculate the mass fraction of Nitrogen

= (24.44 * 28 ) / ((4 * 44 ) + ( 24.44 * 28 ) + ( 5 * 18 ))

= 684.32 / 950.32

= 0.7201

4) Calculate the mass of Carbon dioxide in the products

Mco2 = ( 4 * 44 ) / 58 = 3.0345 kg CO $_{2}$ / Kg C $_{4}$ H $_{10}$

5) Mass of Air required per unit of fuel mass burned

Mair = ( 6.5 * 32 + 24.44 *28 ) / 58 = 15.3848 Kg air / kg C $_{4}$ H $_{10}$

A chemical property of a substance is a certain characteristic that can only be observed by participating in a chemical reaction. Alternatively, a chemical property of a substance is something that can only be observed when the substance undergoes a chemical change.

I'm not sure what you're supposed to do with the first four boxes; all four are examples of chemical properties. Do you have to name the specific type of chemical property as given in the description? If so, the following would be my answers:

Flammability/Combustibility: The ability of a substance to burn.

The next two are quite strange; I'm not aware of a term that cleanly describes reactivity with water or acid. I suspect that, given the level of the material here, the general property of "reactivity" might be the answer for both the second and third descriptions

(Water-)reactivity: Some substances react when put in water.

(Acid-)reactivity: Some substances react when put in acid.

Light sensitivity: Light can interact with some things to form new substances.

As for the chart, I've filled it in as shown in the attached image. Please take care to double-check what I've written; in particular, when it comes to the property, I might have used a different term from what you were taught in class or provided in some other resource that I don't have access to. I've also color-coded qualitative/quantitative and physical/chemical for your convenience.

Placing a suspect at the scene of a crime is an important element in criminal investigation. This can be achieved through the lo

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:A) cotton

A fiber if available in trace or appropriate amount can link a suspect to a crime.Solubility is a preliminary test performed for identification of the type of fiber. In this method small amount of fiber evidence is dissolved in the suitable solvent to identify it's type. Some fibers completely get solublize in the solvent, some get partially soluble and other can only change their color or do not dissolve at all.

According to the given situation, the fiber dissolved in hydrochloric acid can be cotton. As the fibers of cotton are soft and slender and will get easily solubilize in hydrochloric acid.
