The first element to have 4d electrons in its electron configuration is Yttrium with an atomic number of 39 and the chemical symbol Y. The electron configuration of an atom refers to the distribution of its electrons in the atomic orbitals. These orbitals are represented by letters s,p,d,f and so on. The electron configuration of Yttrium is [Kr] 4d¹ 5s², wherein [Kr] refers to the electron configuration of the noble gas, Krypton.
Aluminum has a chemical formula of Al, while diatomic bromine has a chemical formula of Br₂. The balanced chemical reaction is shown below:
<em>2 Al (s) + 3 Br₂ (l) → 2 AlBr₃ (s)</em>
The solid product is called Dibromoaluminum. The stoichiometric coefficients are used to balance the reaction to obey the Law of Conservation of Mass.
Answer: D. They are made up of hard spheres that are in random motion.
Explanation:
A gas is a <u>state of aggregation of matter</u> in which, under certain conditions of temperature and pressure, <u>its molecules interact weakly with each other, without forming molecular bonds</u>, adopting the shape and volume of the container that contains them and tending to separate everything possible because of its <u>high concentration of kinetic energy</u>.
The molecules of a gas are practically <u>free</u> and have the ability to be distributed throughout the space in which they are contained because <u>the gravitational forces and attraction between them are practically negligible</u> compared to the speed at which they move. .
Therefore, gas molecules do not travel specific trajectories or vibrate in a stationary position, instead <u>they move quickly and randomly through the entire space of the container that contains them.</u>
Answer:
a) The structure of anthracene is planar with all the pi electrons delocalized in the structure to maintain aromaticity.
b) The C-C bond length in anthracene is about 140 pm with all the bond lengths being similar to each other.
The standard C-C bond length is 154 pm while standard C=C bond is about 134 pm. Therefore the bond length in anthracene is smaller than standard C-C bond length and longer than standard C=C bond length. This can be explained from the fact that the C-C bonds in anthracene has be mixed characteristics of single and double bond because of the delocalization of pi electrons over the whole structure. As a result, they are neither fully single nor fully double bond in nature. Hence the observed bond lengths.
c) This molecule is not flat. The N-atom is sp3 hybridized here and the H-atom attached to N will remain out of plane.
