Chapter 8, Problem 11E
Consider this scenario and answer the following questions: On a mid-August day in the northeastern United States, the following information appeared in the local newspaper: atmospheiic pressure at sea level 29.97 in. Hg, 1013.9 mbar.
(a) What was the pressure in kPa?
(b) The pressure near the seacoast in the northeastern United States is usually reported near 30.0 in. Hg. During a hurricane, the pressure may fall to near 28.0 in. Hg. Calculate the drop in pressure iii ton.

In 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.
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)
Write 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.
