What orbitals are used to form the 10 sigma bonds in propane (ch3ch2ch3)? Label each atom with the appropriate hybridization. Dr

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Mixing of pure orbitals having nearly equal energy to form equal number of completely new orbitals is said to be hybridization.

For the compound, $CH_3CH_2CH_3$ the electronic configuration of the atoms, carbon and hydrogen are:

Carbon (atomic number=6): In ground state= $1s^{2}2s^{2}2p^{2}$

In excited state: $1s^{2}2s^{1}2p^{3}$

Hydrogen (atomic number=1): $1s^{1}$

All the bonds in the compound is single bond( $\sigma$ -bond) that is they are formed by head on collision of the orbitals.

The structure of the compound is shown in the image.

The Carbon-Hydrogen bond is formed by overlapping of s-orbital of hydrogen to p-orbital of carbon.

In order to complete the octet the required number of electrons for carbon is 4 and for hydrogen is 1. So, the electron in $1s^{1}$ of hydrogen will overlap to the 2p^{3}-orbital of carbon.

Thus, the hybridization of Hydrogen is $s$ -hybridization and the hybridization of Carbon is $sp^{3}$ -hybridization.

The hybridization of each atom is shown in the image.

Exactly 1.0 mol N2O4 is placed in an empty 1.0-L container and allowed to reach equilibrium described by the equation N2O4(g) 2N

Amanda [17]

Answer : The correct option is, (a) 0.44

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the concentration of $N_2O_4$ .

$\text{Concentration of }N_2O_4=\frac{\text{Moles of }N_2O_4}{\text{Volume of solution}}$

$\text{Concentration of }N_2O_4=\frac{1.0moles}{1.0L}=1.0M$

Now we have to calculate the dissociated concentration of $N_2O_4$ .

The balanced equilibrium reaction is,

$N_2O_4(g)\rightleftharpoons 2NO_2(aq)$

Initial conc. 1.0 M 0

At eqm. conc. (1.0-x) M (2x) M

As we are given,

The percent of dissociation of $N_2O_4$ = $\alpha$ = 28.0 %

So, the dissociate concentration of $N_2O_4$ = $C\alpha=1.0M\times \frac{28.0}{100}=0.28M$

The value of x = $C\alpha$ = 0.28 M

Now we have to calculate the concentration of $N_2O_4\text{ and }NO_2$ at equilibrium.

Concentration of $N_2O_4$ = 1.0 - x = 1.0 - 0.28 = 0.72 M

Concentration of $NO_2$ = 2x = 2 × 0.28 = 0.56 M

Now we have to calculate the equilibrium constant for the reaction.

The expression of equilibrium constant for the reaction will be:

$K_c=\frac{[NO_2]^2}{[N_2O_4]}$

Now put all the values in this expression, we get :

$K_c=\frac{(0.56)^2}{0.72}=0.44$

Therefore, the equilibrium constant $K_c$ for the reaction is, 0.44

Express each aqueous concentration in the unit indicated.

MAXImum [283]

Answer:

a. ppb of trichloroethylene = 3 × 10⁶ ppb

b. ppm of Cl₂ = 3.8 ppm

c. Molarity = 0.0002 mol / L

d. Molarity = 0.0007 mol / L

e. For trace amount of concentrations

Explanation:

a. Given data

mass of trichloroethylene = 25 mg

Volume of water = 9.5 L

ppb of trichloroethylene = ?

Solution

As we know that

1 L = 1000 milliliters

9.5 L = 9.5 × 1000

9.5 L = 9500 millileters (ml)

we consider 25 mg = 25 millileters

<em>ppb = (mass of solute / mass of solvent) × 1000,000,000 (1 billion)</em>

ppb of trichloroethylene = (25 ÷ 9500) × 1000,000,000

ppb of trichloroethylene = 0.003 × 1000,000,000

ppb of trichloroethylene = 3 × 10⁶ ppb

B. Given data

Mass of Cl₂ = 38 g

volume of water = 1.00 × 10⁴ L ( 10000 L)

ppm of Cl₂ = ?

Solution

Volume of water in ml = 1 L = 1000 ml

Volume of water in ml = 10000 × 1000

Volume of water in ml = 10000000 ml

we take 38 g = 38 ml

Now we convert it to ppm

<em>ppm = (mass of solute / mass of solvent) × 1000000 (1 million)</em>

ppm of Cl₂ = ( 38 ÷ 10000000 ) × 1000000

ppm of Cl₂ = 0.0000038 × 1000000

ppm of Cl₂ = 3.8 ppm

C. Given data

Concentration of F⁻ ( Fluoride ion) = 2.4 ppm

Molarity = ?

Solution

As we know that 1 ppm = 0.001 g / L

2.4 ppm = 2.4 × 0.001 g/L

2.4 ppm = 0.0024 g/L

Mass of flouride ions = 0.0024 g

Now we find number of moles

<em>moles = mass / molar mass</em>

molar mass of F⁻ = 19 g/mol

moles of F⁻ = 0.0024 g / 19 g/mol

moles of F⁻ = 0.0002 mol

<em>Molarity = mol of solute / liter of solution</em>

Molarity = 0.0002 mol / 1 L

Molarity = 0.0002 mol / L

D. Given data

Concentration of NO₃⁻ ( nitrate ion) = 45 ppm

Molarity = ?

Solution

As we know that 1 ppm = 0.001 g / L

45 ppm = 45 × 0.001 g/L

45 ppm = 0.045 g/L

Mass of nitrate ions = 0.045 g

Now we find number of moles

<em>moles = mass / molar mass</em>

molar mass of NO₃⁻ = 62 g/mol

moles of NO₃⁻ = 0.045 g / 62 g/mol

moles of F⁻ = 0.0007 mol

<em>Molarity = mol of solute / liter of solution</em>

Molarity = 0.0007 mol / 1 L

Molarity = 0.0007 mol / L

E. Reason of expressing concentration in ppm and ppb

Scientist prefer ppm and ppb notations when the concentration difference of solute and solvent are very high.

As water contains contaminants is a very low amount we can say in trace amounts so scientist prefer ppm and ppb rather than molarity.

Example

Arcenic is an under ground water contaminant and its concentration of 10 μg/L is dangerous for health.

Lets change this in to molarity

mass = 10 μg

10 μg = 10 / 1000000

10 μg = 0.00001 g

now find out moles of Arcenic

moles = mass / molar mass

molar mass of arcenic = 75 g/mol

<em>moles = mass / molar mass</em>

moles of arcenic = 0.00001 g / 75 g/mol

moles of arcenic = 0.00000012 mol

<em>Molarity = moles of solute / litres of solution</em>

Molarity = 0.00000012 mol / 1 L

Molarity = 0.00000012 mol/ L

As we can see that in molarity it is a negligible amount so scientists express it in ppm and ppb

Element M reacts with oxygen to form an oxide with the formula MO. When MO is dissolved in water, the resulting solution is basi

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

Calcium

Explanation:

Since the element reacts with oxygen to form an oxide with the formula MO, the charge on the element is +2.

Also, since the oxide MO when dissolved in water is basic, the metal is an alkali earth metal.

From the above conditions;

The metal is not arsenic because arsenic is a metalloid has the following oxides As₂O₃ and As₃O₅ and are respectively amphoteric and acidic in nature

The metal is not germanium because is a metalloid and even though germanium oxide has the formula GeO₂, it is amphoteric.

The metal is not chlorine because chlorine is a non-metal

The metal is definitely calcium because calcium oxide has the formula CaO and calcium is an alkaline earth metal.

The metal is not selenium because selenium is anon-meal and its oxide has the formula Se0₂ and is acidic
