Choose all of the orbitals that can form a σ bond to the orbital displayed below (side-by-side, in the orientation shown).

Answer:

s orbital

Explanation:

The orbital shown is a py orbital. py orbitals overlap side by side with s orbital to form a sigma bond. Looking at the direction of the Px and py orbitals, overlap of these with a py orbital can only lead to the formation of a pi bond.

However, the s orbital being spherically symmetric overlaps with py orbital in such a manner that a sigma bond is formed. The s orbital overlaps with one of the lobes of the py orbital.

Sigma bonds are formed by end to end overlap of atomic orbitals. It is the strongest type of covalent bond.

Find the number of moles of water that can be formed if you have 170 mol of hydrogen gas and 80 mol of oxygen gas. Express your
Sav [38]

<u>Answer:</u> The amount of water that can be formed is 160 moles

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Moles of hydrogen gas = 170 moles

Moles of oxygen gas = 80 moles

The chemical equation for the reaction of hydrogen gas and oxygen gas follows:

2H_2+O_2\rightarrow 2H_2O

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of oxygen gas reacts with 2 moles of hydrogen gas

So, 80 moles of oxygen gas will react with = \frac{2}{1}\times 80=160mol of hydrogen gas

As, given amount of hydrogen gas is more than the required amount. So, it is considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, oxygen gas is considered as a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of product.

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of oxygen gas produces 2 moles of water

So, 80 moles of oxygen gas will produce = \frac{2}{1}\times 80=160moles of water

Hence, the amount of water that can be formed is 160 moles

Consider the skeletal structure of naphthalein (C10H8), the active ingredient in mothballs. How many double bonds must be added
Greeley [361]

Answer:

four (4)

Explanation:

Naphthalein is an organic compound with formula C 10H 8. It is the simplest polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon, and is a white crystalline solid with a characteristic odor that is detectable at concentrations as low as 0.08 ppm by mass. As an aromatic hydrocarbon, naphthalene's structure consists of a fused pair of benzene rings. It is best known as the main ingredient of traditional mothballs.

The molecule is planar, like benzene. Unlike benzene, the carbon–carbon bonds in naphthalene are not of the same length. The bonds C1−C2, C3−C4, C5−C6 and C7−C8 are about 1.37 Å (137 pm) in length, whereas the other carbon–carbon bonds are about 1.42 Å (142 pm) long. This difference, established by X-ray diffraction is consistent with the valence bond model in naphthalene and in particular, with the theorem of cross-conjugation. This theorem would describe naphthalene as an aromatic benzene unit bonded to a diene but not extensively conjugated to it (at least in the ground state), which is consistent with two of its three resonance structures.

Because of this resonance, the molecule has bilateral symmetry across the plane of the shared carbon pair, as well as across the plane that bisects bonds C2-C3 and C6-C7, and across the plane of the carbon atoms. Thus there are two sets of equivalent hydrogen atoms: the alpha positions, numbered 1, 4, 5, and 8, and the beta positions, 2, 3, 6, and 7. Two isomers are then possible for mono-substituted naphthalenes, corresponding to substitution at an alpha or beta position. Bicyclo[6.2.0]decapentaene is a structural isomer with a fused 4–8 ring system.

Therefore four (4) double bonds will be added to give each carbon atom an octet structure.

Explain why you hear a “whoosh” sound when you open a can containing a carbonated drink. Which gas law applies?
Lana71 [14]

Carbonated drinks have the air under pressure so that carbon bubbles are forced into the drink, keeping it carbonated. So when you open a can, the air under pressure in the can comes out of the can at a high speed, making a "whooshing" sound. The gas law that applies to this concept is the Boyle's Law (PV=k or P1V1=P2V2).

Which of the following statements is true about energy quantization at the atomic level? Electrons in the outermost orbits are t
MAVERICK [17]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The correct answer is option C which is, "Electrons in the orbit closest to the nucleus have the least amount of energy".

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • There are different orbitals around the nucleus on which the electrons moves around the nucleus.
  • These orbitals have a specific energy, due to which they are known as energy levels.
  • The energy level near to the nucleus has least amount of the energy and the energy of the orbitals increase as the distance of the orbitals increase to the nucleus.
