Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
We need to change the given digits to two significant figures by round off or by addition of zero.
Concept Introduction:
To change the significant figure as given we can round off the number or we can add zeros to the number. To round off any number we have to follow some rules. In a number ended with 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 must be rounded to next nearest 0 digit number. In a number followed by 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4 must be rounded the number down. If we have decimals; in rounding off numbers we have to keep the last figure unchanged and the first figure dropped is less than 5 whereas more than 5 will change the number to the next number.

- Nonearrow_forwardNonearrow_forwardIn the solid state, oxalic acid occurs as a dihydrate with the formula H2C2O4 C+2H2O. Use this formula to calculate the formula weight of oxalic acid. Use the calculated formula weight and the number of moles (0.00504mol) of oxalic acid in each titrated unknown sample recorded in Table 6.4 to calculate the number of grams of pure oxalic acid dihydrate contained in each titrated unknown sample.arrow_forward
- 1. Consider a pair of elements with 2p and 4p valence orbitals (e.g., N and Se). Draw their (2p and 4p AO's) radial probability plots, and sketch their angular profiles. Then, consider these orbitals from the two atoms forming a homonuclear л-bond. Which element would have a stronger bond, and why? (4 points)arrow_forwardWrite the reaction and show the mechanism of the reaction. Include the mechanism for formation of the NO2+ 2. Explain, using resonance structures, why the meta isomer is formed. Draw possible resonance structures for ortho, meta and para.arrow_forwardNonearrow_forward
- 3. A molecular form of "dicarbon", C2, can be generated in gas phase. Its bond dissociation energy has been determined at 599 kJ/mol. Use molecular orbital theory to explain why energy of dissociation for C₂+ is 513 kJ/mol, and that for C2² is 818 kJ/mol.
