Answer:

(a) 0,1,2,3 (b) -3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3 (c) 6 (d) 5

Explanation:

(a) for the principal quantum number 'n', the possible values of I = 0 to n-1. Thus, if the principal quantum number 'n' =4, I = 0,1,2,3.

(b) for a given number of 'I', the possible values of ml = -I to +I. Therefore, if I =3, then ml = -3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3

(c) 'I' which is the orbital angular momentum quantum number usually has values from 0,1,2,⋯,n−1. Therefore, for n greater than or 6, t would be greater than or equal to 5. Thus, the smallest possible value of n for which I can be 6 is 6.

(d) In a 3-dimensional figure, If the z-component of the orbital angular momentum Lz for which I=5 is measured, The possible outcomes will be:

mħ = -5ħ, -4ħ, -3ħ, -2ħ, -1ħ, 0, 1ħ, 2ħ, 3ħ, 4ħ, 5ħ.

Thus, the smallest possible l that can have a z component of 5ℏ is 5.

How did Mendeleev feel about Russian science education when he came back from Germany

krok68 [10]

As he began to teach inorganic chemistry, Mendeleev could not find a textbook that met his needs. Since he had already published a textbook on organic chemistry in 1861 that had been awarded the prestigious Demidov Prize, he set out to write another one. The result was Osnovy khimii (1868–71; The Principles of Chemistry), which became a classic, running through many editions and many translations. When Mendeleev began to compose the chapter on the halogen elements (chlorine and its analogs) at the end of the first volume, he compared the properties of this group of elements to those of the group of alkali metals such as sodium. Within these two groups of dissimilar elements, he discovered similarities in the progression of atomic weights, and he wondered if other groups of elements exhibited similar properties. After studying the alkaline earths, Mendeleev established that the order of atomic weights could be used not only to arrange the elements within each group but also to arrange the groups themselves. Thus, in his effort to make sense of the extensive knowledge that already existed of the chemical and physical properties of the chemical elements and their compounds, Mendeleev discovered the periodic law.

Write chemical equations and corresponding equilibrium expressions for each of the two ionization steps of carbonic acid. Part A

lesantik [10]

<u>Answer:</u> The chemical equations and equilibrium constant expression for each ionization steps is written below.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The chemical formula of carbonic acid is $H_2CO_3$ . It is a diprotic weak acid which means that it will release two hydrogen ions when dissolved in water

The chemical equation for the first dissociation of carbonic acid follows:

$H_2CO_3(aq.)\rightleftharpoons H^+(aq.)+HCO_3^-(aq.)$

The expression of first equilibrium constant equation follows:

$Ka_1=\frac{[H^+][HCO_3^{-}]}{[H_2CO_3]}$

The chemical equation for the second dissociation of carbonic acid follows:

$HCO_3^-(aq.)\rightarrow H^+(aq.)+CO_3^{2-}(aq.)$

The expression of second equilibrium constant equation follows:

$Ka_2=\frac{[H^+][CO_3^{2-}]}{[HCO_3^-]}$

Hence, the chemical equations and equilibrium constant expression for each ionization steps is written above.

A vessel contains Ar(g) at a high pressure. Which of the following statements best helps to explain why the measured pressure is

Luda [366]

Answer:

4. The combined volume of the Ar atoms is too large to be negligible compared with the total volume of the container.

Explanation:

Deviations from ideality are due to intermolecular forces and to the nonzero volume of the molecules themselves. At infinite volume, the volume of the molecules themselves is negligible compared with the infinite volume the gas occupies.

However, the volume occupied by the gas molecules must be taken into account. Each <u>molecule does occupy a finite, although small, intrinsic volume.</u>

The non-zero volume of the molecules implies that instead of moving in a given volume V they are limited to doing so in a smaller volume. Thus, the molecules will be closer to each other and repulsive forces will dominate, resulting in greater pressure than the one calculated with the ideal gas law, that means, without considering the volume occupied by the molecules.

Air is transferred from a 75 L tank where the pressure is 125 psi and the temperture is 288 k to a tire with a volume of 6.1 L a

aniked [119]

<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>

= 4.68 K

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>

According to the combined gas law;

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

Given; P1 = 125 Psi

V1 = 75 L

T1 = 288 K

P2 = 25 PSI

V2 =6.1 L

Therefore;

T2 = P2V2T1/P1V1

= (25×6.1 ×288)/(125×75)

= 4.6848

= 4.68 K
