The energy gap between the valence band and the conduction band in the widely-used semiconductor gallium arsenide (GaAs) is Δ =

1.424 eV. Suppose that we consider a small piece of GaAs with 1020 available electrons, and use the equilibrium condition derived in the prelecture. 1) On average, how many electrons will be in the conduction band if T=274.15 K?

Answer:

n_e = 8.139 *10^6

Explanation:

Given that;

The energy gap between the valence band and the conduction band in the widely-used semiconductor gallium arsenide (GaAs) is Δ = 1.424 eV.

So; that implies that:

\delta \ E = 1.424 \ eV

Suppose that we consider a small piece of GaAs with 1020 available electrons, -- This is taking about the numbers of electrons used which is :

n_i = 10^{20} \ electrons

Temperature is given as:

T = 274.15 \ K

Number of electrons can be calculated by using the formula;

n_e = n_i*e^-^{\frac{\delta E }{2 K_B*T}}

n_e = 10^{20}*e^-^{\frac{1.424}{2*8.617*10^{-5}*274.15}}

n_e = 8.139 *10^6

Which of the following concerning second ionization energies is true?
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

The fact is that the both elements belong to different groups in the periodic table. Mg is in group 12 while Al is in group 13. The outer most electron configuration for Mg2+=[Ne]3s0

Al+= [Ne]3s13p0

It is evident that in Al+, the second electron is to be removed from a filled 3s subshell which is energetically unfavourable. Unlike In Mg2+ where the two electrons are removed. There is always a tendency towards a quick loss of all the valence electrons in the valence shell. It will be more difficult to remove an electron from a filled shell.

All of the following reactions can be described as displacement reactions except:____________.
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

b

Explanation:

The reaction that is not a displacement reaction from all the options is C_6H_6_{(l)} + Cl_{2(g)} --> C_6H_5Cl_{(l)} + HCl_{(g)}

In a displacement reaction, a part of one of the reactants is replaced by another reactant. In single displacement reactions, one of the reactants completely displaces and replaces part of another reactant. In double displacement reaction, cations and anions in the reactants switch partners to form products.

<em>Options a, c, d, and e involves the displacement of a part of one of the reactants by another reactant while option b does not.</em>

Correct option = b.

Draw all of the constitutional isomers of the molecule with formula C3H5Br. Ignore geometric and stereoisomers.
Kay [80]

Answer:

-) 3-bromoprop-1-ene

-) 2-bromoprop-1-ene

-) 1-bromoprop-1-ene

-) bromocyclopropane

Explanation:

In this question, we can start with the <u>I.D.H</u> (<em>hydrogen deficiency index</em>):

I.D.H~=~\frac{(2C)+2+(N)-(H)-(X)}{2}

In the formula we have 3 carbons, 5 hydrogens, and 1 Br, so:

I.D.H~=~\frac{(2*3)+2+(0)-(5)-(1)}{2}~=~1

We have an I.D.H value of one. This indicates that we can have a cyclic structure or a double bond.

We can start with a linear structure with 3 carbon with a double bond in the first carbon and the Br atom also in the first carbon (<u>1-bromoprop-1-ene</u>). In the second structure, we can move the Br atom to the second carbon (<u>2-bromoprop-1-ene</u>), in the third structure we can move the Br to carbon 3 (<u>3-bromoprop-1-ene</u>). Finally, we can have a cyclic structure with a Br atom (<u>bromocyclopropane</u>).

See figure 1

I hope it helps!
