There are 7 values of ml are allowed for an electron in a 5f subshell namely: -3 -2, -1, 0, +1, +2, +3

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

In an atom, there are energy levels in the shell and subshell.This energy level is expressed in terms of electron configurations.

Writing the electron configuration starts from the lowest to the highest subshell's energy level. There are 4 sub-shells in an atom's shell, namely s, p, d, and f. The maximum number of electrons for each subshell is

s: 2 electrons
p: 6 electrons
d: 10 electrons and
f: 14 electrons

Electron filling in subshells using the following sequence:

1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹⁰, 4p⁶, 5s², 4d¹⁰, 5p⁶, 6s², etc.

Each sub-shell also has orbitals drawn in the form of a square box in which there are electrons symbolized by half arrows.

Each orbital in an atom consists of 4 quantum numbers

n is the principal quantum number.
l is the angular momentum / azimuthal quantum number
ml, the magnetic quantum number
ms, the electron-spin quantum number

Value of n: positive integer

value of l: s = 0, p = 1, d = 2, f = 3

ml value: between -l to + l

ms value: +1/2 or -1/2

Determination of electron configurations based on principles:

1. Aufbau: Electrons occupy orbitals of the lowest energy level
2 Hund: electron fills orbitals with the same energy level
3. Pauli: there are no electrons that have 4 equal quantum numbers

So for 5f orbitals, the value of a possible quantum number is

n = 5;

l = 3 (f = 3);

m = -3 -2, -1, 0, +1, +2, +3;

s = + - 1/2

The total number of values for a given 5f subshell is $\boxed{\mathbf{7}}$ .

Further Explanation:

The size, energy, shape, and orientation of an orbital depend upon four quantum numbers. These quantum numbers are,

1. Principal Quantum Number (n): It denotes the principle electron shell. The values of n are a positive integer (1, 2, 3, ).

2. Angular Momentum Quantum Number (l): It represents the shape of an orbital. The value of l is an integer from 0 to $\left( {n - 1}\right)$ .

3. Magnetic Quantum Number $\left( {{m_l}}\right)$ : This quantum number represents the orientation of the orbital in space. The value of ${m_l}$ lie between to . The formula to calculate the value of ${m_l}$ is as follows:

${m_l} = - l,( - l + 1),.....,0,1,2,.....,(l - 1),l$

Therefore, the total number of ${m_l}$ values for a given value of l is $2l + 1$ .

4. Electron Spin Quantum Number $({m_s})$ : It represents the direction of electron spin. Its value can be $+ \frac{1}{2}$ or $- \frac{1}{2}$ .

The given subshell is 5f.

The value of the angular momentum quantum number (l) for f subshell is 3.(Refer to the table in the attached image)

Therefore, the total number of ${m_l}$ values for a given 5f subshell can be calculated as,

$\begin{aligned}{\text{Total number of\; }}{{\text{m}}_l}{\text{ values}}&={\text{2}}\left( l \right){\text{ + 1}}\\&={\text{2}}\left( 3 \right){\text{ + 1}}\\&= {\mathbf{7}}\\\end{aligned}$

These values of ${m_l}$ lies between $- l$ to $+ l$ , therefore the values of ${m_l}$ for 5f are,

$- {\mathbf{3}},-{\mathbf{2}},-{\mathbf{1}},{\mathbf{0}},+{\mathbf{1}},+{\mathbf{2}},+ {\mathbf{3}}$

The total number of ${m_l}$ values for 5f subshell is 7.

A mixture of three gases has a pressure at 298 K of 1380 mm Hg. The mixture is analysed and is found to contain 1.27 mol CO2, 3.

enot [183]

Answer:

The partial pressure of Ar is 356.04 mm Hg (= 0.4685 atm)

Explanation:

<u>Step 1:</u> Data given

A mixture of three gases has a total pressure of 1380 mm Hg (=1.81579 atm) at 298 K

Moles of CO2 = 1.27 moles

Moles of CO = 3.04 moles

Moles of Ar = 1.50 moles

<u>Step 2:</u> Calculate total number of moles

Total number of moles = n(CO2)+ n(CO)+ n(Ar) = 1.27 mol+ 3.04 mol+ 1.50 mol = 5.81 moles

<u>Step 3:</u> Calculate mol fraction Ar

Mol fraction Ar = 1.50 mol/5.81 mol = 0.258

<u>Step 4</u>: Calculate partial pressure

1380 mm Hg * 0.258 moles Ar = 356.04 mm Hg = 0.4685 atm

The partial pressure of Ar is 356.04 mm Hg (= 0.4685 atm)

The decomposition of AB given here in this balanced equation 2AB (g)⟶ A2 (g) + B2 (g), has rate constants of 8.58 x 10-9 L/mol s

denis-greek [22]

Answer:

3.24 × 10^5 J/mol

Explanation:

The activation energy of this reaction can be calculated using the equation:

ln(k2/k1) = Ea/R x (1/T1 - 1/T2)

Where; Ea = the activation energy (J/mol)

R = the ideal gas constant = 8.3145 J/Kmol

T1 and T2 = absolute temperatures (K)

k1 and k2 = the reaction rate constants at respective temperature

First, we need to convert the temperatures in °C to K

T(K) = T(°C) + 273.15

T1 = 325°C + 273.15

T1 = 598.15K

T2 = 407°C + 273.15

T2 = 680.15K

Since, k1= 8.58 x 10-9 L/mol, k2= 2.16 x 10-5 L/mol, R= 8.3145 J/Kmol, we can now find Ea

ln(k2/k1) = Ea/R x (1/T1 - 1/T2)

ln(2.16 x 10-5/8.58 x 10-9) = Ea/8.3145 × (1/598.15 - 1/680.15)

ln(2517.4) = Ea/8.3145 × 2.01 × 10^-4

7.831 = Ea(2.417 × 10^-5)

Ea = 3.24 × 10^5 J/mol

Modern commercial airliners are largely made of aluminum, a light and strong metal. But the fact that aluminum is cheap enough t

Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

The plane with aluminium can lift more mass of passangers than the plane of steel.

Explanation:

The total mass the airplane canc lift is:

$m_{tot}=m_{fuselage}+m_{passangers}$

For aluminium:

$m_{tot}=m_{fus-Al}+m_{pas-Al}$

$m_{fus-Al}=\delta _{Al}*V_{fuselage}$

and

$V_{fuselage}=\frac{\pi *L}{4}*[D^2-(D-e)^2]$

where:

L is lenght
D is diameter
e is thickness

$m_{tot}=\delta _{Al}*\frac{\pi *L}{4}*[D^2-(D-e)^2]+m_{pas-Al}$

For steel (same procedure):

$m_{tot}=\delta _{Steel}*\frac{\pi *L}{4}*[D^2-(D-e)^2]+m_{pas-Steel$

Knowing that the total mass the airplane can lift is constant and that aluminum has a lower density than the steel, we can afirm that the plane with aluminium can lift more mass of passangers.

Also you can estimate an average weight of passanger to estimate a number of passangers it can lift.
