Which of the following elements has a ground state electronic configuration with an incomplete penultimate shell?
Detalles de la respuesta
The electronic configuration of an atom refers to the arrangement of electrons in its various shells or energy levels. The penultimate shell is the second-to-last shell of an atom. An incomplete penultimate shell means that the penultimate shell is not completely filled with electrons. Out of the given options, Iron has a ground state electronic configuration with an incomplete penultimate shell. The electronic configuration of Iron (Fe) is 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s² 3d⁶. In this configuration, the 3d sub-shell is incomplete with 6 electrons, and the 4s sub-shell is complete with 2 electrons. Therefore, Iron has an incomplete penultimate shell. Sodium, Aluminium, and Calcium all have complete penultimate shells in their ground state electronic configurations. Sodium (Na) has an electronic configuration of 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s¹, Aluminium (Al) has an electronic configuration of 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p¹, and Calcium (Ca) has an electronic configuration of 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s². In all of these configurations, the penultimate shell is complete, and thus none of these elements have an incomplete penultimate shell. Therefore, the correct answer is Iron.

Consider the following equation; Cr2O7(aq)2- + 14H+(aq) + 6e- → 2Cr3+(aq) + 7H2O(I). The oxidation number of chromium changes from
Detalles de la respuesta
In the given equation, the reactant Cr2O72- has chromium in the +6 oxidation state (since each oxygen atom has an oxidation number of -2, and there are seven of them, the total negative charge of the oxygen atoms is -14, and the total negative charge of the ion is -2, so the total positive charge of the chromium atoms must be +12 to balance it out). In the product side, the product Cr3+ has a +3 oxidation state. This means that the oxidation number of chromium has changed from +6 to +3, a decrease of 3. Therefore, the answer is - 2 to + 6, since chromium goes from +6 to +3.

If two metallic ions of the same concentration migrate to a graphite cathode, the one that would be preferentially discharged is the one that has the
Detalles de la respuesta
When two metallic ions of the same concentration migrate to a graphite cathode, the ion that would be preferentially discharged is the one that has a stronger tendency to accept electrons. This is because during the process of electrolysis, the positively charged ions are reduced (gain electrons) at the cathode. The ion with a stronger tendency to accept electrons is more likely to be reduced at the cathode than the other ion, leading to its preferential discharge. This is known as the selective discharge of ions. The mass, electrical charge, and stability of the ion in solution do not affect its preferential discharge.

Detalles de la respuesta
The given information includes the volume of chlorine gas and the conditions of temperature and pressure (s.t.p). The formula for calculating the mass of a gas at s.t.p is: mass = (volume of gas at s.t.p in dm³) x (molar mass of gas) / (molar volume at s.t.p) The molar mass of chlorine gas (Cl₂) is 2 x atomic mass of Cl = 2 x 35.5 = 71 g/mol. The molar volume of any gas at s.t.p is 22.4 dm³. Plugging in the values, we get: mass = (1.12 dm³) x (71 g/mol) / (22.4 dm³/mol) = 3.55 g Therefore, the mass of chlorine gas which occupies a volume of 1.12 dm³ at s.t.p is 3.55 g. The correct option is (b) 3.55g.

Soapless detergents, also known as synthetic detergents, are different from soaps in that they do not contain fatty acids as their active ingredient. Rather, they contain synthetic surfactants that are more soluble in water and are better at removing dirt and oils. Of the given options, the correct statement is that soapless detergents lather readily with hard water. This is because hard water contains dissolved metal ions, such as calcium and magnesium, which can react with the soap molecules and form an insoluble precipitate, reducing its cleaning ability. However, since synthetic detergents do not contain the same fatty acid molecules as soaps, they do not form this precipitate and can therefore lather well even in hard water.

Detalles de la respuesta
If the relative molecular mass of an element is not a whole number, it can be deduced that the element is an isotopic mixture. This is because the relative molecular mass of an element is the average of the masses of all the isotopes of that element, taking into account their relative abundances. Isotopic mixture means that the element is composed of different isotopes with different masses and different relative abundances. For example, chlorine has two isotopes, Cl-35 and Cl-37, which have relative abundances of 75.5% and 24.5%, respectively. The average atomic mass of chlorine is therefore not a whole number, but a weighted average of the masses of these isotopes, taking into account their abundances.

Rutherford's alpha-scattering experiment led to the conclusion that atoms are mostly empty space with a small, dense, positively charged nucleus. This was based on the observation that when alpha particles were fired at a thin gold foil, most of the particles passed straight through the foil, but a few were deflected at large angles. This indicated that the positive charge of the atom was concentrated in a small, dense nucleus, and that most of the atom was empty space.

Detalles de la respuesta
If the relative molecular mass of an element is not a whole number, it can be deduced that the element is an isotopic mixture. This is because the relative molecular mass is a weighted average of the masses of all the isotopes of the element, taking into account their abundance. If the element has only one isotope, its relative molecular mass will be a whole number. However, if the element has two or more isotopes with different masses and abundances, its relative molecular mass will be a decimal or fraction. Therefore, the non-whole number relative molecular mass indicates that the element is made up of a mixture of isotopes with different masses and abundances.

Detalles de la respuesta
In an electrolytic cell, when two metallic ions of the same concentration migrate to a graphite cathode, the one that would be preferentially discharged is the one that has the stronger tendency to accept electrons. This is because reduction, which involves the gain of electrons, occurs at the cathode. The ion with a stronger tendency to accept electrons will have a higher reduction potential and will therefore be preferentially reduced at the cathode.

Determine the mass of sulphur (IV) oxide obtained when 91.0g of oxygen reacts completely with sulphur according to the following equation: S(s) + O2(g) → SO2(g) [S = 32; O = 16]
Detalles de la respuesta
The balanced chemical equation for the reaction between sulfur and oxygen to form sulfur dioxide is: S + O2 → SO2 This equation tells us that 1 mole of sulfur reacts with 1 mole of oxygen to produce 1 mole of sulfur dioxide. We are given the mass of oxygen that reacts completely with sulfur, which is 91.0 g. We can use this information to calculate the number of moles of oxygen: Number of moles of oxygen = Mass of oxygen / Molar mass of oxygen Number of moles of oxygen = 91.0 g / 32 g/mol Number of moles of oxygen = 2.84 mol From the balanced equation, we can see that the number of moles of sulfur dioxide produced is equal to the number of moles of oxygen that reacts. Therefore, we have: Number of moles of sulfur dioxide = 2.84 mol Now we can use the molar mass of sulfur dioxide to calculate its mass: Mass of sulfur dioxide = Number of moles of sulfur dioxide × Molar mass of sulfur dioxide Mass of sulfur dioxide = 2.84 mol × (32 g/mol + 2 × 16 g/mol) Mass of sulfur dioxide = 2.84 mol × 64 g/mol Mass of sulfur dioxide = 182 g Therefore, the mass of sulfur dioxide produced when 91.0 g of oxygen reacts completely with sulfur is 182 g. So, the correct option is (d) 182g.

What volume of hydrogen will be produced if 100cm3 of ammonia is completely decomposed at constant temperature and pressure? The equation for reaction is 2NH3(g) → N2(g) + 3H2(g)
Detalles de la respuesta
The balanced chemical equation for the reaction between ammonia and hydrogen is: 2NH3(g) → N2(g) + 3H2(g) From the equation, we can see that 2 moles of ammonia reacts to produce 3 moles of hydrogen. Therefore, the ratio of ammonia to hydrogen is 2:3. This means that for every 2 moles of ammonia, 3 moles of hydrogen will be produced. To determine the volume of hydrogen produced, we need to use the volume of ammonia given in the question. We can assume that the ammonia is measured under the same temperature and pressure as the hydrogen produced. Since we are given the volume of ammonia, we need to convert it to moles using the ideal gas law: PV = nRT Where: P = pressure (constant) V = volume of gas (in liters) n = number of moles R = ideal gas constant T = temperature (constant) Assuming constant temperature and pressure, we can simplify the equation to: V = n Therefore, the volume of ammonia (100 cm3) is equal to its number of moles. Using the ratio from the balanced equation, we can calculate the number of moles of hydrogen produced: 2 moles NH3 : 3 moles H2 100 cm3 NH3 : x cm3 H2 x = (100 cm3 NH3)(3 mol H2/2 mol NH3) = 150 cm3 H2 Therefore, the volume of hydrogen produced is 150 cm3.
