Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The formation of the disodium molecule is to be described in terms of a molecular orbital energy level diagram, and the alkaline earth metals thatexhibit or do not exhibit similar properties are to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

As per the molecular orbital theory, two or more atoms are linked together to make molecular orbitals. It predicts the arrangement of electrons in a molecule.

A molecular orbital energy level diagram consists of the respective energies of atomic orbitals.

The molecular orbital theory consists of bonding molecular orbitals and anti-bonding molecular orbitals. The electronic structure of a molecule is described by this theory.

Alkaline earth metals are shiny and silvery-white with the tendency of losing their outermost electrons to form cations containing two positive charges.

The 1st group element is also called alkali metals. The electronic configuration for alkali metals is ns1. They have the tendency of losing their outermost electrons to form cations with one positive charge.

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.
