According to Hund's rule of maximum spin multiplicity, how many singly-occupied orbitals are there in the valence shells of the

leva [86]

Answer:

A) carbon - 2

B) cobalt - 3

C) sulfur - 2

D) fluorine - 1

E) titanium - 2

F) germanium - 2

Explanation:

Hund's rule of maximum multiplicity:-

Firstly, every orbital which is present in the sublevel is singly occupied and then the orbital is doubly occupied.

(A) Carbon.

The electronic configuration is -

$1s^22s^22p^2$

Thus, 2s orbital is fully filled and p orbital can singly filled 3 electrons. Thus, Carbon has 2 singly occupied orbitals.

(B) Cobalt.

The electronic configuration is -

$1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^63d^{7}4s^2$

Thus, 4s orbital is fully filled and d orbital can singly filled 5 electrons. Thus, 4 electrons will be paired in 2 orbitals and 3 orbitals will be singly filled in cobalt.

(C) Sulfur.

The electronic configuration is -

$1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^4$

Thus, 3s orbital is fully filled and p orbital can singly filled 3 electrons. Thus, 2 electrons will be paired in 1 orbital and 2 orbitals will be singly filled in sulfur.

D) fluorine

The electronic configuration is -

$1s^22s^22p^5$

Thus, 2s orbital is fully filled and p orbital can singly filled 3 electrons. Thus, 4 electrons will be paired in 2 orbitals and 1 orbital will be singly filled in fluorine.

E) Titanium

The electronic configuration is -

$1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^63d^{2}4s^2$

Thus, 4s orbital is fully filled and d orbital can singly filled 5 electrons. Thus, 2 orbitals will be singly filled in titanium.

F) Germanium

The electronic configuration is -

$1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^63d^{10}4s^24p^2$

Thus, 4s, 3d orbitals are fully filled and p orbital can singly filled 3 electrons. Thus, Germanium has 2 singly occupied orbitals.

Uranium-267 undergoes alpha decay, what is the mass of the new element?

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

will this help ?

Explanation:

(108Hs) is a synthetic element, and thus a standard atomic weight cannot be given. Like all synthetic elements, it has no stable isotopes. The first isotope to be synthesized was 265Hs in 1984. There are 12 known isotopes from 263Hs to 277Hs and 1–4 isomers. The most stable isotope of hassium cannot be determined based on existing data due to uncertainty that arises from the low number of measurements. The confidence interval of half-life of 269Hs corresponding to one standard deviation (the interval is ~68.3% likely to contain the actual value) is 16 ± 6 seconds, whereas that of 270Hs is 9 ± 4 seconds. It is also possible that 277mHs is more stable than both of these, with its half-life likely being 110 ± 70 seconds, but only one event of decay of this isotope has been registered as of 2016.[1][2].

A student observes two strips of magnesium, mg ribbon that are each 3cm long. One strip of magnesium

ankoles [38]

Therefore option c , i.e. The substances in both test tubes are reactive only at high temperatures. is the only statement which is NOT supported by the student's observations.

<h3>What is the reaction between Magnesium and Hydrogen ?</h3>

Magnesium reacts with hydrochloric acid to produce hydrogen gas

Mg (s) + 2 HCl (aq) → MgCl₂ (aq) + H₂ (g)

In this reaction, the magnesium and acid are gradually used up , which can be seen in the test tube 2 .

A chemical reaction is taking place in Test tube 2 ,

Hydrogen gas is released in test tube 2 ,

Energy is released in the reaction involving hydrochloric acid and we can see in test tube 2 the reaction is going on

therefore option C i.e. The substances in both test tubes are reactive only at high temperatures. is the only statement which is NOT supported by the student's observation.

To know more about the chemical reaction between Magnesium and Hydrogen and this test.
