A flask containing helium gas is connected to an open-ended mercury manometer. The open end is exposed to the atmosphere, where
stepladder [879]

Answer:

726 torr

Explanation:

Generally, atmospheric pressure can be measured using a manometer which is in form of a U-shaped tube. In addition, 1 mm Hg is equivalent to 1 torr. Therefore, 752 torr is equivalent to 752 mm Hg. Therefore, the total pressure will be equivalent to the atmospheric pressure (mm Hg) + the mercury height.

In this case, the mercury height = -26 mm

Thus:

The helium pressure = 752 - 26 = 726 mm Hg

This is also equivalent to 726 torr

120 grams of calcium nitrite Ca(NO2)2 is dissolved in a 240 mL solution. What is the molarity of the solution???
expeople1 [14]

Hey there!:

Molar mass Ca(NO2)2 = 132.089 g/mol

Mass of solute = 120 g

Number of moles:

n = mass of solute / molar mass

n = 120 / 132.089

n = 0.0009084 moles of Ca(NO2)2

Volume in liters of solution :

240 mL / 1000 => 0.24 L

Therefore:

Molarity = number of moles / volume of solution

Molarity = 0.0009084 / 0.24

Molarity = 0.003785 M

Hope that helps!

Which of the following is a reasonable ground-state electron configuration?
Veronika [31]

Answer is: 1s22s22p5.

1) Electron configuration 1s²1p⁶2d², this is not reasonable because 1p and 2d oritals do not exist.

2) Electron configuration 1s²2s⁴2p⁶, this is not reasonable because s orbitals only contain 2 electrons.

3) Electron configuration 1s²2s²2p⁵ is of an element fluorine. Fluorine (F) has atomic number 9, which means it has 9 protons and 9 electrons.

4) Electron configuration 1s²2s²2d⁶, this is not reasonable because 2d orbitals do not exist.

7.47 Two atoms have the electron configurations 1s22s22p6 and 1s22s22p63s1. The first ionization energy of one is 2080 kJ/mol an
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

2080 kJ/mol is the first ionization of 1st atom and 496 kJ/mol is the first ionization of 2nd atom

Explanation:

Given electronic configurations are :

1st: 1s^22s^22p^6

2nd : 1s^22s^22p^63s^1

given 1st ionization energy are: 2080 kJ/mol and 496 kJ/mol

generally ionization energy of fulfilled orbital is more than half filled orbital and these two state are more stable.

therefore ionization energy of fulfilled is more than half filled orbital

hence

ionization energy of 1st atom will be very high because its orbital is fulfilled and less energy for 2nd atom so 2080 kJ/mol is the first ionization of 1st atom and 496 kJ/mol is the first ionization of 2nd atom.

If the coefficient 2 is placed in front of the product tetraiodine nonaoxide (I4O9), then, how many atoms of each element must b
Svetlanka [38]
The coefficient of any substance in a chemical equation indicates the number of moles of that substance which are present. We can see from its chemical formula that tetraiodine nonaoxide contains four iodine atoms and nine oxygen atoms. If the coefficient is two, then the total iodine atoms will be eight and  the total oxygen atoms will be 18. Because the law of conservation of mass holds, an equal amount must be accounted for on the other side of the chemical equation. Therefore, the first option is correct.
