Thanks for the clarification!!

Ligand bonds to the central atom. For coordination compounds, it forms between the compound and the element that goes in to share

kimberlysanchez-1E

What do you mean? How did your structure look?

kimberlysanchez-1E

So there is only like 5 shapes we need to know?

kimberlysanchez-1E

yeah there can. He explained in class I think

kimberlysanchez-1E

any corrections to the solutions manual is on the class website.

kimberlysanchez-1E

i think they would want us to draw the arrows

kimberlysanchez-1E

well radicals just end up going on the central atom. I dont think you count that in for formal charge

kimberlysanchez-1E

no. just everything thats on chapter 3 :)

kimberlysanchez-1E

would they also have the f block available?

kimberlysanchez-1E

yeah i think it only happens when you're in the 4 row, u get d and f. but i don't think theres a time you will actually need them

kimberlysanchez-1E

i think its just trial and error

Electron affinity is how likely an atom will take an electron or how much it "wants" an electron. Electronegativity is how strongly an atom will attract shared electrons to itself (more related to bonding). Both electron affinity and electronegativity show similar trends on the periodic t...

kimberlysanchez-1E

electron affinity is the energy released when electrons are added
electronegativity is the attraction an atom has in order to get more electrons

kimberlysanchez-1E

i believe so

kimberlysanchez-1E

balmer is all the visible regions. so like from 700nm-400nm

kimberlysanchez-1E

the f-block needs to be considered in this situation

kimberlysanchez-1E

i think rydberg is only for hydrogen atoms

kimberlysanchez-1E

thanks for the clarification!

kimberlysanchez-1E

there is more conceptual than math based calculation. i just took it

kimberlysanchez-1E

they start off in the same energy level so that is why grouping them is logical

kimberlysanchez-1E

so we can use these equations interchangeably for one another right?

kimberlysanchez-1E

im having the same problem

kimberlysanchez-1E

Professor Lavelle mentioned that uv lights (high frequency beams) cause the ejection of electrons in metals. So does the sun cause the ejection of electrons of metal buildings on a daily basis? If so what are the consequences?

kimberlysanchez-1E

can i round 2.8 to 3?

kimberlysanchez-1E

april is correct

kimberlysanchez-1E

first balance the Carbons, Hydrogens, and then Oxygens

kimberlysanchez-1E

the limiting reactant is the one you have a shortage of to make something. Think of it as a recipe. like if u want to make 1 cake, you need 3 eggs, 1/2 c of milk, and 3/4 c of flour. I have 2 eggs, 3/4 c of milk, and 1 c of flour. Here the limiting reactant is the eggs.

kimberlysanchez-1E

yes joshua is correct

kimberlysanchez-1E

you can use the formula percent yield=(actual yield/theoretical yield)x100%
