What would be the bond order for He 2 2- molecule

Chemistry
1 answer:
LuckyWell [14K]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

In He2 molecule,

Atomic orbitals available for making Molecular Orbitals are 1s from each Helium. And total number of electrons available are 4.

Molecular Orbitals thus formed are:€1s2€*1s2

It means 2 electrons are in bonding molecular orbitals and 2 are in antibonding molecular orbitals .

Bond Order =Electrons in bonding molecular orbitals - electrons in antibonding molecular orbitals /2

Bond Order =Nb-Na/2

Bond Order =2-2/2=0

Since the bond order is zero so that He2 molecule does not exist.

You have 4 moles of a gas in a 50 L container held at 2 atm pressure. Currently the temperature is 27 ºC. R = 0.0821 L*atm/(mol*
Mariulka [41]
The formula used for determining gas pressure, volume and temperature interaction would be PV=nRT. 

<span>• What is the temperature in Kelvins?
</span>You already right at this part. Kelvin temperature formula from celsius should be:
K= C+273.15= 
<span>K= 27 +273.15 = 300.15 
It is important to remember that the formula in this question is using Kelvin unit at temperature, not Celcius or Fahrenheit.
</span>
<span>• Assuming that everything else remains constant, what will happen to the pressure if the temperature decreases to -15 ºC?
</span>In this case, the temperature is decreased from 27C into -15C and you asked the change in the pressure.
Using PV=nRT formula, you can derive that the temperature will be directly related to pressure. If the temperature decreased, the pressure will be decreased too. 

<span> If you increase the number of moles to 6 moles, increase temperature to 400K and reduce the volume to 25 L, what will the new pressure be?
</span>PV=nRT
P= nRT/V
P= 6 moles* <span>0.0821 L*atm/(mol*K) * 400K/25L= 7.8816 atm</span>

Which of the following are weak electrolytes in aqueous solutions? Select ALL that apply.
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

Weak electrolytes are

HgCl2 and NH₃

Explanation:

  • Electrolytes are compounds that conduct electricity while in molten or aqueous form.
  • Electrolytes may therefore be decomposed by passing electric current through them.
  • They may be either strong or weak electrolytes.
  • Strong electrolytes are those that ionize completely to form mobile ions while weak electrolytes ionize partially to generate ions.
  • Examples of weak electrolytes  are HgCl2, NH₃
  • Examples of strong electrolytes are LiOH, HClO₄, and HI.

Which of these substances acts as a buffer? <br> a. blood <br> b. lemon juice <br> c. curd
il63 [147K]
<span>The correct answer is( A) blood.

when the buffer solution its PH value changes very little when a small amount 

of strong acid or base is added to it, and here the bicarbonate buffering system is used to regular the PH of the blood that keeping the PH at nearly constant value by maintaining the original acidity or basicity of the solution.</span>

Define a transverse wave
Mumz [18]
Transverse wave, motion in which all points on a wave oscillate along paths at right angles to the direction of the wave's advance. Surface ripples on water, seismic S (secondary) waves, and electromagnetic (e.g., radio and light) waves are examples of transverse waves.
