When writing an electron configuration for a transition metal, what is the last orbital type to be filled – an s, p, d or f orbital?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: It would be d.

Reason being said...

the electron configuration normally goes like this...

1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2....

until you hit the transition metals..remember those have a special rule..

even though you are in the 4 sublevels for the orbitals ... it goes down 1

Making it 3d..(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10)

Going on...

at 5s2 then, 4d1, 4d2, 4d3, 4d4, etc..

at 6s2 then, 5d1, 6d2, 6d3, 6d4, etc..

Thus, D orbital is your answer.

The bond between F and Cl would be:A) nonpolar covalent
B) polar covalent
C) ionic
D) metallic

Answers

It would be a polar covalent bond. The two atoms have different electronegativities, and I'm pretty sure they are sufficiently different to classify the bond as polar.

i belive the answer is C) ionic

When a substance changes its state, all BUT ONE of these statements istA)

Answers

Answer:

"Something chemically new forms" is the incorrrect statement

Explanation:

When a substance changes its state, it retains its mass even though its form and kinetic energy changes. It is simply moving between states, that is: loosing energy or gaining it. its chemical composition does not change.

Have a good day dude

Answer:

Science...Only the form changes.Kinetic energy changes.

21 Which mathematical expression represents the heat of reaction for a chemical reaction?(1) (the heat of fusion) – (the heat of vaporization)(2) (the heat of vaporization) – (the heat of fusion)
(3) (the potential energy of the products) – (the potential energy of the reactants)
(4) (the potential energy of the reactants) – (the potential energy of the products)

Answers

Correct Answer: Option 3 i.e. (the potential energy of the products) – (the potential energy of the reactants)

Reason:
Heat of reaction for a chemical reaction is the change in the enthalpy of a chemical reaction that occurs at a constant pressure. This can be measured on the basis of potential energy of reactants and products. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Heat of reaction = ΔH = ΣH products - ΣHr reactants.

The answer is (3) the potential energy of the products - the potential energy of the reactants. The reaction energy production can be represented by the change of energy of products and reactants.

If the [H+] in a solution is 1*10^-1 mol/L, what is the [OH]?

Answers

K(w)=[OH⁻][H⁺] (K(w)=1×10⁻¹⁴)

[OH⁻]=K(w)/[H⁺]
[OH⁻]=(1×10⁻¹⁴)/0.1
[OH⁻]=1×10⁻¹³M

Pls help me on question 30 I don't know how to do it

Answers

The rate law for a reaction that is first order in both reactants is Rate=k[A][B]. Therefore to find the rate you plug in the values you are given to get the equation rate=0.5×0.0183×0.0168 to get Rate=1.54×10⁻⁴ mol/Ls.

I hope this helps. Let me know in the comments if anything is unclear.
