Answer:
Samarium:
Electron configuration:
Samarium
Explanation:
Samarium is a chemical element that belongs to the lanthanoid series. The lanthanoids are the chemical elements that follow lanthanum. They are all known to possess 4f orbitals. The 4f electrons are found in the antepenultimate shell of the elements of the lanthanoid series and they do not take part in chemical bonding. They are neither removed in bonding nor do they take part in crystal field stabilization of lanthanoid complexes.
The electronic configuration of samarium is; 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d10 4p6 5s2 4d10 5p6 6s2 4f6 while the condensed, short hand electronic configuration is [Xe] 4f6 6s2. This corresponds to (noble gas]ns2(n − 2) f6 as required by the question, hence the answer provided above.
A 0.187 M weak acid solution has a pH of 3.99. Find Ka for the acid. Express your answer using two significant figures.
Answer:
5.56 × 10⁻⁸
Explanation:
Step 1: Given data
Concentration of the weak acid (Ca): 0.187 MpH of the solution: 3.99Step 2: Calculate the concentration of H⁺
We will use the following expression.
pH = -log [H⁺]
[H⁺] = antilog -pH = antilog -3.99 = 1.02 × 10⁻⁴ M
Step 3: Calculate the acid dissociation constant (Ka)
We will use the following expression.
[tex]Ka = \frac{[H^{+}]^{2} }{Ca} = \frac{(1.02 \times 10^{-4})^{2} }{0.187} = 5.56 \times 10^{-8}[/tex]
Can a catalyst change an exothermic reaction into an endothermic reaction or vice versa? Please explain your answer.
Answer:
A catalyst cannot change an exothermic reaction into an endothermic reaction or vice versa.
Explanation:
Catalyst is basically a substance that enables a chemical reaction to occur at a faster rate as compared to the reaction without catalysis. It lowers the activation energy and temperature for a chemical reaction and a catalyst itself does not goes through any permanent chemical change. This means it does not get used in the process.
Exothermic and endothermic are the chemical reaction. Exothermic reactions absorb energy. This energy is absorbed in the form of heat. When the energy is released in the form of heat then this reaction is called endothermic. So one absorbs the heat and the other releases it.
As we know that the catalyst does not undergo change at the end of the reaction so the energy or heat whether is absorbed or emitted or you can say whether the reaction is exothermic or endothermic, the total energy stays unchanged during the reaction. So with and without a catalyst, if both have same reactants and products and the difference in enthalpy between products and reactants will be the same.

Description (with words) of water just above melting temperature. What intermolecular forces do you expect to find in water in liquid state
Answer:
intermolecular dipole-dipole hydrogen bonds
Explanation:
Water is a polar molecule. Recall that the central atom in water is oxygen. The molecule is bent, hence it has an overall dipole moment directed towards the oxygen atom. Since it has a permanent dipole moment, we expect that it will show dipole-dipole interactions in the liquid state.
Similarly, water contains hydrogen and oxygen. Recall that hydrogen bonds are formed when hydrogen is covalently bonded to highly electronegative elements. Hence, water in the liquid state exhibits strong hydrogen bonding. The unique type of dipole-dipole interaction in liquid water is actually hydrogen bonding, hence the answer.
Calculate the pH for the following 1.0M weak acid solutions:a. HCOOH Ka = 1.8 x 10-4 [
Answer: pH=2.38
Explanation:
To calculate the pH, let's first write out the equation. Then, we will make an ICE chart. The I in ICE is initial quantity. In this case, it is the initial concentration. The C in ICE is change in each quantity. The E is equilibrium.
HCOOH ⇄ H⁺ + HCOO⁻
I 1.0M 0 0
C -x +x +x
E 1.0-x x x
For the steps below, refer to the ICE chart above.
1. Since we were given the initial of HCOOH, we can fill this into the chart.
2. Since we were not given the initial for H⁺ and HCOO⁻, we will put 0 in their place.
3. For the change, we need to add concentration to the products to make the reaction reach equilibrium. We would add on the products and subtract from the reactants to equalize the reaction. Since we don't know how much the change in, we can use variable x.
4. We were given the Kₐ of the solution. We know [tex]K_{a} =\frac{product}{reactant}=\frac{[H^+][HCOO^-]}{[HCOOH]}[/tex].
5. The problem states that the Kₐ=1.8×10⁻⁴. All we have to so is to plug it in and to solve for x.
[tex]1.8*10^-^4 =\frac{x^2}{0.1-x}[/tex]
6. Once we plug this into the quadratic equation, we get x=0.00415.
7. The equilibrium concentration of [H⁺]=0.00415. pH is -log(H⁺).
-log(0.00415)=2.38
Our pH for the weak acid solution is 2.38.
Choose the situation below that would result in an endothermic ΔHsolution.
a) When |ΔHsolute| > |ΔHhydration|
b) When |ΔHsolute| is close to |ΔHhydration|
c) When |ΔHsolute| < |ΔHhydration|
d) When |ΔHsolvent| >> |ΔHsolute|
e) There isn't enough information to determine.
Answer:
Option A - When |ΔHsolute| > |ΔHhydration|
Explanation:
A solution is defined as a homogeneous mixture of 2 or more substances that can either be in the gas phase, liquid phase, solid phase.
The enthalpy of solution can either be positive (endothermic) or negative (exothermic).
Now, we know that enthalpy is amount of heat released or absorbed during the dissolving process at constant pressure.
Now, the first step in thus process involves breaking up of the solute. This involves breaking up all the intermolecular forces holding the solute together. This means that the solute molecules are separate from each other and the process is always endothermic because it requires energy to break interaction. Thus;
The enthalpy ΔH1 > 0.
Thus, the enthalpy of the solute has to be greater than the enthalpy of hydration.
An endothermic ΔHsolution occurs when |ΔH solute| < |ΔH hydration|.
A substance dissolves in water when the solute - solvent interaction exceeds the solute - solute solute interaction. The energy required to break the bonds between solutes is the ΔHsolute and the energy released when solute - solvent interaction take place is called the ΔHhydration.
We know that when |ΔH solute| < |ΔH hydration|, energy is required to break up the solute - solute interaction and ΔHsolution is endothermic.

Without doing any calculations, match the following thermodynamic properties with their appropriate numerical sign for the following endothermic reaction. 2N2(g) + O2(g)2N2O(g) Clear All > 0 Hrxn < 0 Srxn = 0 Grxn > 0 low T, < 0 high T Suniverse < 0 low T, > 0 high T
Answer:
∆H > 0
∆Srxn <0
∆G >0
∆Suniverse <0
Explanation:
We are informed that the reaction is endothermic. An endothermic reaction is one in which energy is absorbed hence ∆H is positive at all temperatures.
Similarly, absorption of energy leads to a decrease in entropy of the reaction system. Hence the change in entropy of the reaction ∆Sreaction is negative at all temperatures.
The change in free energy for the reaction is positive at all temperatures since ∆S reaction is negative then from ∆G= ∆H - T∆S, we see that given the positive value of ∆H, ∆G must always return a positive value at all temperatures.
Since entropy of the surrounding= - ∆H/T, given that ∆H is positive, ∆S surrounding will be negative at all temperatures. This is so because an endothermic reaction causes the surrounding to cool down.
When hydrocarbons are burned in a limited amount of air, both CO and CO2 form. When 0.430 g of a particular hydrocarbon was burned in air, 0.446 g of CO, 0.700 g of CO2, and 0.430 g of H2O were formed.
Required:
a. What is the empirical formula of the compound?
b. How many grams of O2 were used in the reaction?
c. How many grams would have been required for complete combustion?
Answer:
(a) The empirical formula of the compound is
m(CxHy) + m(O2) = m(CO) + m(CO2) + m(H2O).
(b) The grams of O2 that were used in the reaction is 1.146 g
(c) The amount of O2 that would have been required for complete combustion is 1.401 g.
Explanation:
a. m(CxHy) + m(O2) = m(CO) + m(CO2) + m(H2O)
(b) Using law of conservation of mass from above
m(O2) = m(CO) + m(CO2) + m(H2O) - m(CxHy)
m(O2) = 0.446 + 0.700 + 0.430 - 0.430
m(O2) = 1.146 g
The grams of O2 that were used in the reaction is 1.146 g
(c) for complete combustion, we need to oxidized CO to CO2
Then, 2CO +O2 = 2CO2
m(add)(O2) = M(O2)*¢(O2)/2 = M(O2) * {(m(CO))/(2M(CO))}
m(add)(O2) = 32 * {(0.446)/(2*28)} = 0.255 g
Note; Molar mass of O2 = 32, CO = 28
m(total)(O2) = m(O2) + m(add)(O2)
m(total)(O2) = 1.146 + 0.255 = 1.401 g
The amount of that grams would have been required for complete combustion is 1.401 g.

An unknown element, X, reacts with oxygen to form two oxides with the general formula X_2O_3 and X_2O_5. The pure element is strongly paramagnetic, and the oxides are amphoteric. Which of the following elements could be represented by X?a) Scb) Bc) Nd) Sbe) S
Answer:
The unknown element is Sb
Explanation:
The first thing we must note is that the unknown element must be a member of group 15 in the periodic table. This is clear from the fact that the two oxides formed are X2O3 and X2O5. This implies that the unknown element X must have a valency of 3 or 5. This corresponds to our knowledge that the outermost electron configuration of group 15 elements is ns2np3. Hence, group fifteen elements can have a valency of 3 or 5.
The electronic configuration of antimony is; [Kr]4d10 5s2 5p3. This implies that the atom is paramagnetic since there are three unpaired 5p electrons. The oxides of antimony are known to be amphoteric. An ampohoteric oxide reacts with both acid and base, hence the answer.

Balance the following equations: (c) H2(g)+I2(s)⟶HI(s)H2(g)+I2(s)⟶HI(s)
Answer: [tex]H_2(g)+I_2(g)\rightarrow 2HI(s)[/tex]
Explanation:
According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.
Thus in the reactants, there are 2 atoms of hydrogen and 2 atoms of iodine .Thus there has to be 2 atoms of hydrogen and 2 atoms of iodine in the product as well. Thus a coefficient of 2 is placed in front of HI.
The balanced chemical reaction is:
[tex]H_2(g)+I_2(g)\rightarrow 2HI(s)[/tex]
Calculate the free energy of formation of NaBr(s) given the following information: NaBr(s) → Na(s) + 1/2Br2(l), ∆G° = 349 kJ/mol

Calculate the free energy of formation of NaBr(s) given the following information: NaBr(s) → Na(s) + 1/2Br2(l), ΔG° = 349 kJ/mol
A) –309 kJ/mol
B) –329 kJ/mol
C) None of the above
D) –349 kJ/mol
E) –369 kJ/mol
Answer:
The correct answer is option D, that is, -349 kJ/mol.
Explanation:
Based on the given information, the reaction is:
NaBr (s) ⇔ Na (s) + 1/2 Br₂ (l), the ΔG° of the reaction given is 349 kJ per mole. In the given question, it is clearly mentioned that there is a need to determine the free energy of the formation of NaBr. Thus, there is a need to keep Na (s) and Br₂ (l) at the reactant side and NaBr (s) at the product side.
Therefore, there is a need to reverse the reaction and change the sign on ΔG.
Now the reaction will become,
Na (s) + 1/2 Br₂ (l) ⇔ NaBr (s), and the ΔG° will now become -349 kJ per mole. Hence, -349 kJ per mole is the free energy of the formation of NaBr (s).

A chemist measures the energy change Delta H during the following
2Fe2O3(s)->4FeO(s)+O2(g).
1) this reactions is: Endothermic or exothermic.
2) suppose 94.2g of Fe2O3 react. will any heat be relased or absorbed. yes absorbed. yes releases. no.
3) If you said heat will be released or absorbed in the second part of the question. calculate how much heat will be absored or released. be sure your answer has correct number of significant digits.
Answer: 1) Endothermic
2) Yes, absorbed.
3) 166.86 kJ will be absorbed.
Explanation:
1) To determine if a reaction is endothermic (heat is absorbed by the system) or exothermic (heat is released by the system), first calculate its change in Enthalpy, which is given by:
ΔH = [tex]H_{products} - H_{reagents}[/tex]
For the reaction 2Fe₂O₃(s) ⇒ 4FeO(s) + O₂(g):
Enthalpy of Reagent (Fe₂O₃(s))
Enthalpy of formation for Fe₂O₃(s) is - 822.2 kJ/mol
The reaction needs 2 mols of the molecule, so:
H = 2(-822.2)
H = - 1644.4
Enthalpy of Products (4FeO(s) + O₂(g))
Enthalpy of formation of O₂ is 0, because it is in its standard state.
Enthalpy of formation of FeO is - 272.04 kJ/mol
The reaction produces 4 mols of iron oxide, so:
H = 4(-272.04)
H = -1088.16
Change in Enthalpy:
ΔH = [tex]H_{products} - H_{reagents}[/tex]
ΔH = - 1088.16 - (-1644.4)
ΔH = + 556.2 kJ/mol
The change in enthalpy is positive, which means that the reaction is absorving heat. Then, the chemical reaction is Endothermic.
2) When Fe₂O₃(s) reacts, heat is absorbed because it is an endothermic reaction.
3) Calculate how many mols there is in 94.2 g of Fe₂O₃(s):
n = [tex]\frac{mass}{molar mass}[/tex]
n = [tex]\frac{94.2}{160}[/tex]
n = 0.6 mols
In the reaction, for 2 mols of Fe₂O₃(s), 556.2 kJ are absorbed. Then:
2 mols --------------- 556.2 kJ
0.6 mols ------------- x
x = [tex]\frac{0.6*556.2}{2}[/tex]
x = 167 kJ
It will be absorbed 167 kJ of energy, when 94.2 g of Fe₂O₃(s) reacts.
Dissolving NaOH(s) in water is exothermic. Two calorimetry experiments are set up.

Answer:
a. both temperature changes will be the same
Explanation:
When sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is dissolved in water, a determined amount is released to the solution following the equation:
Q = m×C×ΔT
Where Q is the heat released, m is the mass of the solution, C is the specific heat and ΔH is change in temperature.
Specific heat of both solutions is the same (Because the solutions are in fact the same). Specific heat = C.
m is mass of solutions: 102g for experiment 1 and 204g for experiment 2.
And Q is the heat released: If 2g release X heat, 4g release 2X.
Thus, ΔT in the experiments is:
Experiment 1:
X / 102C = ΔT
Experiment 2:
2X / 204C = ΔT
X / 102C = ΔT
That means,
a. both temperature changes will be the same

Answer:
[tex]0.48~\frac{J}{g~^{\circ}C}[/tex]
Explanation:
In this question, we have to remember the relationship between Q (heat) and the specific heat (Cp) the change in temperature (ΔT), and the mass (m).
[tex]Q=m*Cp*ΔT[/tex]

[tex]m~=~85.01~g[/tex]
[tex]ΔT~=~45.2~^{\circ}C[/tex]
[tex]Cp~=~X[/tex]
Now, we can plug the values and solve for "Cp":
[tex]1870~J=~85.01~g~*Cp*45.2~^{\circ}C[/tex]
[tex]Cp=\frac{1870~J}{85.01~g~*45.2~^{\circ}C}[/tex]
[tex]Cp=0.48~\frac{J}{g~^{\circ}C}[/tex]

If the pKaof HCHO2is 3.74 and the pH of an HCHO2/NaCHO2solution is 3.11, which of the following is true?
A. [HCHO2] < [NaCHO2]
B. [HCHO2] = [NaCHO2]
C. [HCHO2] << [NaCHO2]
D. [HCHO2] > [NaCHO2]
E. It is not possible to make a buffer of this pH from HCHO2 and NaCHO2
Answer:
D. [HCHO₂] > [NaCHO₂]
Explanation:
Formic acid, HCHO₂, is a weak acid that, in presence of its conjugate base, NaCHO₂ (CHO₂⁻), produce a buffer following H-H equation:
pH = pKa + log [CHO₂⁻] / [HCHO₂]
As pKa of the acid is 3.74 and pH of the solution is 3.11:
3.11 = 3.74 + log [CHO₂⁻] / [HCHO₂]
-0.63 = log [CHO₂⁻] / [HCHO₂]
0.2344 = [CHO₂⁻] / [HCHO₂]
A ratio [CHO₂⁻] / [HCHO₂] < 1, means:
[HCHO₂] > [CHO₂⁻]A package contains 1.33 lb of ground round. If it contains 29% fat, how many grams of fat are in the ground round? The book is saying 91g I keep getting 175g. Can someone please explain?
Answer:
To obtain the grams of fat that the ground round has, knowing that it weighs 1.33 pounds we must pass this value to grams. Since 1 pound equals 453.59 grams, 1.33 pounds equals 603.27 (453.59 x 1.33).
Now, to obtain 29 percent of 603.27, we must make the following calculation: 603.27 / 100 x 29, which gives a total of 174.94 grams.
In this way, your reasoning is correct and it is probably a mistake in the book.
Determine the limiting reactant (LR) and the mass (in g) of nitrogen that can be formed from 50.0 g N 2O 4 and 45.0 g N 2H 4. Some possibly useful molar masses are as follows: N 2O 4 = 92.02 g/mol, N 2H 4 = 32.05 g/mol.
N 2O 4( l) + 2 N 2H 4( l) → 3 N 2( g) + 4 H 2O( g)

Answer:
Option A. LR = N2O4, 45.7g N2 formed
Explanation:
The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:
N2O4(l) + 2N2H4(l) → 3N2(g) + 4H2O(g)
Next, we shall determine the masses of N2O4 and N2H4 that reacted and mass of N2 produced from the balanced equation. This is illustrated below:
Molar mass of N2O4 = 92.02 g/mol
Mass of N2O4 from the balanced equation = 1 x 92.02 = 92.02 g
Molar mass of N2H4 = 32.05 g/mol
Mass of N2H4 from the balanced equation = 2 x 32.05 = 64.1g
Molar mass of N2 = 2x14.01 = 28.02g/mol
Mass of N2 from the balanced equation = 3 x 28.02 = 84.06g
Summary:
From the balanced equation above,
92.02g of N2O4 reacted with 64.1g of N2H4 to produce 84.06g of N2.
Next, we shall determine the limiting reactant. This can be obtained as follow:
From the balanced equation above,
92.02g of N2O4 reacted with 64.1g of N2H4.
Therefore, 50g of N2O4 will react with = (50 x 64.1)/92.02 = 34.83g of N2H4.
From the calculations made above, we can see that only 34.83g out 45g of N2H4 is required to react completely with 50g of N2O4.
Therefore, N2O4 is the limiting reactant and N2H4 is the excess reactant.
Finally, we shall determine the mass of N2 produced from the reaction.
In this case the limiting reactant will be used as it will produce the maximum yield of N2 since all of it is used up in the reaction.
The limiting reactant is N2O4 and the mass N2 produced can be obtained as illustrated below:
From the balanced equation above,
92.02g of N2O4 reacted to produce 84.06g of N2.
Therefore 50g of N2O4 will react to produce = (50 x 84.06)/92.02 = 45.7g of N2.
Therefore, 45.7g of N2 were produced from the reaction.
At the end of the day,
The limiting reactant is N2O4 and 45.7g of N2 were produced from the reaction.
What is the half-life for the first order decay of 14C according to the reaction, 146C — 147N +e- ?
The rate constant for the decay is 1.21 x10-4 year-1
Answer:
5727 years or 5730 (rounded to match 3 sig figs) whichever one your teacher prefers
Explanation:
First Order decay has a half life formula of Half Life = Ln (2) / k = 0.693/K
Half-life = 0.693/k = 0.693/1.21 x10-4 = 5727 years or 5730 (rounded to match 3 sig figs)
This should be correct because if you google the half-life of 14 C it is ~ 5700 years
