(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The carbon (graphite) is a conductor; semiconductor or insulator is to be determined.

Concept introduction:

Band theory is a model that defines the energy of the electrons in the solid and determines the conductivity of the solids. It is derived from the theory of the molecular orbital. The lower occupied molecular orbital is known as valence band and higher unoccupied molecular orbital are known as the conduction band. The solids can be classified on the basis of band theory as follows:

1. Conductors.

2. Semiconductor

3. Insulators

A periodic table is an arrangement of elements based on their atomic number, properties, and electronic configuration. The table is arranged into groups and periods. The elements which are metallic in nature, occupy the large lower-left portion of the table. The non-metals occupy the small upper-right portion of the table. Metalloids like along the staircase line. Elements which appear in the same group have similar behavior.

An expression for the root mean square velocity, vrms, of a gas was derived. Using Maxwell’s velocity distribution, one can also calculate the mean velocity and the most probable velocity (mp) of a collection of molecules. The equations used for these two quantities are vmean=(8RT/πM)1/2 and vmp=(2RT/M)1/2 These values ​​have a fixed relationship to each other.(a) Arrange these three quantities in order of increasing magnitude.(b) Show that the relative magnitudes are independent of the molar mass of the gas.(c) Use the smallest velocity as a reference for establishing the order of magnitude and determine the relationship between the larger and smaller values.
The reaction of solid dimethylhydrazine, (CH3)2N2H2, and liquefied dinitrogen tetroxide, N2O4, has been investigated for use as rocket fuel. The reaction produces the gases carbon dioxide (CO2), nitrogen (N2), and water vapor (H2O), which are ejected in the exhaust gases. In a controlled experiment, solid dimethylhydrazine was reacted with excess dinitrogen tetroxide, and the gases were collected in a closed balloon until a pressure of 2.50 atm and a temperature of 400.0 K were reached.(a) What are the partial pressures of CO2, N2, and H2O?(b) When the CO2 is removed by chemical reaction, what are the partial pressures of the remaining gases?
One liter of chlorine gas at 1 atm and 298 K reacts completely with 1.00 L of nitrogen gas and 2.00 L of oxygen gas at the same temperature and pressure. A single gaseous product is formed, which fills a 2.00 L flask at 1.00 atm and 298 K. Use this information to determine the following characteristics of the product:(a) its empirical formula;(b) its molecular formula;(c) the most favorable Lewis formula based on formal charge arguments (the central atom is N);(d) the shape of the molecule.
