Question 12.27

Hey everyone! Can someone offer me an explanation on how to do this problem? A careless laboratory technician wants to prepare 200.0 mL of a 0.025 m HCl(aq) solution, but uses a 250.0-mL volumetric ask by mistake. (a) What would the pH of the desired solution have been? (b) What will be the actual p...

2015 Midterm Question #3

Hello all, Question 3A on midterm 2015 reads "The velocity of an electron emitted from a metallic surface by a photon is 3.6 x 10^3 km/s. What is the wavelength of the ejected electron?" How can one deduce from this question's wording that we should use De Broglie's equation instead of usi...

2006 Practice Midterm Question #5C

Hey guys!

On question 5C, it asks "What is the subshell notation and the number of orbitals having the quantum numbers n=3, l=2?"

I understand that the subshell notation is 3d, but how do I figure out how many orbitals have the quantum numbers of n=3 and l=2?

Thank you!!

Electron Configurations Stability

For our periodic tables, why are some elements' electron configurations, for example, Cr: 3d5 4s1 written instead of Cr4 4s2? Other examples Nb: 4d4 5s1 instead of 4d3 5s2 Pt: 4f14 5d9 6s1 instead of 4f14 5d8 6s2 I understand that Pd removes the two electrons from the 5s orbital to fill up the 4d or...

Chapter 3 Homework #13

Hi everyone!

Could someone explain to me how to find the answers for this question?

For each of the following ground-state atoms, predict the type of orbital (1s, 2p, 3d, 4f, etc.) from which an electron will need to be removed to form the 1 ions: (a) Zn; (b) Cl; (c) Al; (d) Cu.

Thank you!

Re: Post All Chemistry Jokes Here

So two friends walk into a bar, and one friend says "I'll have an H2O." The other friend says "I'll have an H2O too".

Both friends drink their beverages and the second one dies unfortunately, because the second friend asked for H2O2, which is hydrogen peroxide :(

Rydberg Equation

Hey guys, I'm a little confused on when we should be using the Rydberg Equation that the textbook provided (V = R (1/n1^2) -(1/n2^2)) vs the one that we learned about in lecture (E= -hR/n^2).

Can someone explain to me which one we should use and why?

Thank you!

Re: HW Question Ch #27 [ENDORSED]

To Sylvia, One mole is 6.022 x 10^23 of "things". The mole can be 6.022 x 10^23 atoms, which can be said as 1 mol of atoms, or it could be 6.022 x 10^23 donuts, which would be said as 1 mol of donuts. For this case, 1 mol of photons, just means 6.022 x 10^23 of those "things" (ph...

Homework Problem 1.23 [ENDORSED]

Can anybody walk me through how I can answer this question?

I'm confused as to where I should start.

The y-ray photons emitted by the nuclear decay of a technetium-99 atom used in radiopharmaceuticals have an energy of 140.511 keV. Calculate the wavelength of these y-rays.

Re: How familiar should we be with Naming compounds? [ENDORSED]

Is there some special method that we can learn so that we can figure out how to write compounds based on the positivity/negativty of each element? For instance, for Magnesium Sulfate Heptahydrate, how can one figure out which elements are positive and which are negative, and the charges of the eleme...
