Answer:

(a) [Ru(NH₃)₅Cl]SO₄

The number of d electrons in the valence shell of Ru³⁺ is 5.

Also the total number of d electrons in Ru³⁺ is 15

(b) Na₂[Os(CN)₆]

The number of d electrons in the valence shell of Os⁴⁺ is 4.

Also the total number of d electrons in Os⁴⁺ is 24

Explanation:

In a coordination complex, a central metal is bonded to neutral or charged atoms or molecules, called ligands via coordinate covalent bonds.

(a) [Ru(NH₃)₅Cl]SO₄

The central metal atom is Ru

The electron configuration of Ru in ground state: 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶  3d¹⁰ 4s² 4p⁶ 4d⁷ 5s¹

Let the oxidation state of Ru in the given complex be x

∴ [x × 1] + [(0) × 5] + [(-1) × 1] + [(-2) × 1] = 0

⇒ x + 0 - 1 - 2 = 0

⇒ x = +3

<em>Electron configuration of Ru³⁺:</em> 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶  3d¹⁰ 4s² 4p⁶ 4d⁵

<u>The number of d electrons in the valence shell of Ru³⁺ is 5</u>

<u>Also the total number of d electrons in Ru³⁺ is 15</u>

(b) Na₂[Os(CN)₆]

The central metal atom is Os

The electron configuration of Os in ground state: 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶  3d¹⁰ 4s² 4p⁶ 4d¹⁰ 5s² 5p⁶ 4f¹⁴ 5d⁶ 6s²

Let the oxidation state of Os in the given complex be x

∴ [x × 1] + [(0) × 5] + [(-1) × 1] + [(-2) × 1] = 0

⇒ x + 0 - 1 - 2 = 0

⇒ x = +3

<em>Electron configuration of Os⁴⁺:</em> 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶  3d¹⁰ 4s² 4p⁶ 4d¹⁰ 5s² 5p⁶ 4f¹⁴ 5d⁴

<u>The number of d electrons in the valence shell of Os⁴⁺ is 4</u>

<u>Also the total number of d electrons in Os⁴⁺ is 24</u>

Ru³⁺ configuration = d⁵
number of d^{n} electrons = 5

For b) Na₂[Os(CN)₆]
Os configuration = d⁶s²
In this complex Os oxidation number is +4
Os⁴⁺ configuration = d⁴
number of d^{n} electrons = 4

Answer is: c. N2O, N2O4, N2O5.

Law of multiple proportions or Dalton's Law said that the ratios of the masses of the second element which combine with a fixed mass of the first element will be ratios of small whole numbers.

1) NO; m(N) : m(O) = 14 : 16 = 7 : 8.

2) N₂O; m(N) : m(O) = 2·14 : 16 = 7 : 4.

3) NO₂; m(N) : m(O) = 14 : 2·16 = 7 : 16.

4) N₂O₅; m(N) : m(O) = (2·14) : (5·16) = 7 : 20.

5) NO₄; m(N) : m(O) = 14 : (4·16) = 7 : 32.

6) N₂O₄; m(N) : m(O) = (2·14) : (4·16) = 7 : 16.

A) m(N) : m(O) = 5.6 g : 3.2 g /÷3.2

m(N) : m(O) = 1.75 : 1 /×4.

m(N) : m(O) = 7 : 4.

B)  m(N) : m(O) = 3.5 g : 8.0 g /÷3.5

m(N) : m(O) = 1 : 2.285/ ×7.

m(N) : m(O) = 7 : 16.

C)  m(N) : m(O) = 1.4 g : 4.0 g / ÷ 1.4.

m(N) : m(O) = 1 : 2857/ ×7.

m(N) : m(O) = 7 : 20.

What volume of water must be added to 11.1 mL of a pH 2.0 solution of HNO3 in order to change the pH to 4.0? A) 11.1 mL B) 89 mL
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

Volume of water that must be added is 1.10 L

Explanation:

pH measures the acidity or the alkalinity of a substance

It is given by;

pH = -log[H+]

Using this we can find the concentration of H+ ions in the acid

pH = 2 = -log[H+]

Therefore;

[H+] = 10^-2

       = 0.01 M

But, since 1 mole HNO₃ ionizes to give 1 mole of H+, then the concentration of HNO₃ is equal to the concentration of H+ ([HNO₃] = [H+])

Therefore;

Initial [HNO₃] = 0.01 M

Initial volume of HNO₃ = 11.1 mL or 0.0111 L

We can then use dilution equation to find the final volume after dilution.

The final pH is 4

Therefore, [H+] = 10^-4

                         = 0.0001 M

Thus, the final concentration of HNO₃ is 0.0001 M

Using dilution equation;

M1V1 =M2V2

Thus; V2 = M1V1÷ M2

               = (0.01 M× 0.0111 L)÷ 0.0001 M

               = 1.11 L

This means the final total volume will 1.11 L or 1110 ml

Therefore; The volume of water added = 1110 ml - 11.1 ml

                                                                  = 1098.9 ml or

                                                                  = 1.0989 L

                                                                  = 1.10 L(2 d.p.)

Hence, The volume of water that must be added is 1.10 L

How many grams of copper (I) chloride can be produced from the reaction of 73.5 g of copper (I) oxide with hydrochloric acid acc
natulia [17]

The balanced equation for the reaction is as follows

Cu₂O + 2HCl ---> 2CuCl + H₂O

Molar ratio of Cu₂O to CuCl is 1:2

mass of Cu₂O reacted - 73.5 g

Number of moles of Cu₂O reacted - 73.5 g / 143 g/mol = 0.51 mol

According to the molar ratio,

when 1 mol of  Cu₂O reacts then 2 mol of CuCl is formed

therefore when 0.51 mol of Cu₂O reacts then - 2 x 0.51 mol of CuCl is formed

number of CuCl moles formed - 1.02 mol

mass of CuCl formed - 1.02 mol x 99 g/mol = 101 g

mass of CuCl formed is 101 g

What mass of oxygen reacts when 84.9 g of iron is consumed in the following reaction: Fe+O2= Fe2O3
konstantin123 [22]
First we will calculate the number of moles of Iron:
n =  \frac{m}{M}&#10;, where n is the number of moles, m is the mass of iron in the reaction and M is the Atomic weight.
n= \frac{84.9}{55.845} = 1,52 moles of Iron.
The same number of moles of Oxygen will take part in the reaction.
So 1,52= \frac{mOxygen}{32} where 32 is the Atomical Weight of Oxygen (16 x 2).
=>mOxygen=32*1,52=48,64g

In the manufacture of paper, logs are cut into small chips, which are stirred into an alkaline solution that dissolves several o
Kitty [74]

Answer:

The estimated feed rate of logs is 14.3 logs/min.

Explanation:

The product of the process is 2000 tons/day of dry wood pulp, of 85 wt% of cellulose. That represents (2000*0.85)=1700 tons/day of cellulose.

That cellulose has to be feed by the wood chips, which had 47 wt% of cellulose in its composition. That means you need (1700/0.47)=3617 tons/day of wood chips to provide all that cellulose.

Th entering flow is wood chips with 45 wt% of water. This solution has an specific gravity of 0.640.

To know the specific gravity of the wood chips we have to write a volume balance. We also know that Mw=0.45*M and Mc=0.55*M.

V=V_c+V_w\\\\M/\rho=M_c/\rho_c+Mw/\rho_w\\\\M/\rho=0.55*M/\rho_c+0.45*M/\rho_w\\\\1/\rho=0.55/\rho_c +0.45/\rho_w\\\\0.55/\rho_c=1/\rho-0.45/\rho_w\\\\0.55/\rho_c=1/(0.64*\rho_w)-0.45/\rho_w=(1/\rho_w)*(\frac{1}{0.64}-\frac{0.45}{1}  )\\\\0.55/\rho_c=1.1125/\rho_w\\\\\rho_c=\frac{0.55}{1.1125}*\rho_w= 0.494*\rho_w

The specific gravity of the wood chips is 0.494.

The average volume of a log is

V_l=(\pi*D^{2} /4)*L=(3.1416*\frac{8^{2}  \, in^{2} }{4} )*9ft*(\frac{12 in}{1ft})= 21714 in^{3}=12.57 ft^{3}

The weight of one log is

M=\rho*V=0.494*\rho_w*12.57  ft^{3}\\\\M=0.494*62.4\frac{lbm}{ft^{3} }*12.57ft^{3}\\\\M=387.5lbm

To provide 3617 ton/day of wood chips, we need

n=\frac{supply}{M_{log}}=\frac{3617 tons/day}{387.5 lbm}*\frac{2204lbm}{1ton}\\\\n=20573 logs/day=14.3 logs/min

The feed rate of logs is 14.3 logs/min.
