Cerrena [4.2K]2 years ago
5 0
  • Lithium has Z =3

Electronic configuration is given by

\\ \tt\bull\rightarrowtail 1s^22s^1

  • 1s orbital is filled
  • 2s orbital is unfilled

So

  • unpaired electrons=1

Why is not used at nuclear plant as a soverce for electrical energy
nikitadnepr [17]
The biggest reason is radioactive wastes. Nuclear power generated radioactive wastes like Uranimum, plutonium and amercium that inhibits gene expression and causes cancer to the environment. Nuclear plants use to release these wastes into the oceans, and it causes fishes to exhibit gender change, 3 eyes, 2 tails etc. The impact on human shows signs of serious blood, liver and lung cancers. 

There are currently no way to get rid of these wastes as they take hundred thousands of years to decompose. 

Another reason is they cause a small amount of green gas emission. Releases CO2 to the sky. They exhibit radioactive gas emission as well (causes cancer) .

Estimate the enthalpy change for the combustion of one mole of acetylene, C2H2, to form carbon dioxide and water vapor. BE(C?H)
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

ΔH rxn =  -1010 kJ/molC₂H₂

Explanation:

To obtain the enthalpy change for a reaction from bond energies what we do is to make an inventory of the bonds broken and formed for the balanced chemical reaction:

C₂H₂ + 5/2O₂   ⇒   2CO₂ + H₂O

Bond Broken                                    Bonds Formed

2 C-H + 1 C≡C + 5/2 O=O                4C=O + 2 H-O

Enthalpy bonds broken:

2 mol (456 kJ/mol)+ 1 mol (962 kJ/mol) + 5/2 mol (499 kJ/mol)  =  3121.5 kJ

Enthalpy bond formed:

4 mol (802 kJ/mol) + 2 mol (462 kJ/mol) = 4132.0 kJ

ΔH rxn = H broken - H formed =  3121.5 kJ - 4132.0 kJ = - 1010  kJ (per mol C₂H₂ )
