NO+: Nitrogen mono-oxide ion is the exception.

The octet rule refers to the characteristic  feature of any atom to have preference for possessing eight electrons in the valence shell or outer shell.

RnCl2: Radon Chloride

The central Rn atom is bound to 2 Cl atom and itself has two lone pairs. Hence the number of electrons in valance shell is: (2*2) +(2*2) =8; It fulfils Octet rule.

CF4: Carbon tetrafluoride

The central Carbon atom is bound four F atoms. Hence the number of electrons in valance shell is: (2*4) = 8: Fulfils Octet rule.

N2: Nitrogen

N atom is bound to another N atom through triple bond and the substance also have one lone pair. Hence the number of electrons in valance shell is: (3*2) + 2 =8: Fulfils octet rule.

NO+: Nitrogen mono-oxide ion

In case the ion stays in a form of N+ bound to O atom through a double bond, the nitrogen molecule here would have six molecules in valance shall and would not obey Octet rule.

The rate orders would be: C. A = 2, B=0, C=1

The rate law demonstrates how the concentration of the reactant affects the rate of a chemical reaction. The rate law typically takes the form rate = k[A]n for a reaction such as a products, where k is a proportionality constant known as the rate constant and n is the order of the reaction with respect to A.

Option (1), (2) and Option 4 is incorrect because the provided expression is incorrect for a reaction rate.

The reaction is 2A + B + 2C > E. The mathematical dependence of the rate on reactant concentrations is described by the reaction orders in a rate law. The reaction is m order with respect to A and n order with respect to B, according to the general rate law discussed above.

Only E alkene is produced as a significant product in this reaction. Z-alkenes exhibit more steric repulsions because the bulky isopropyl and methyl groups are both present on the same side of the double bond.

The study of the relative spatial arrangement of the atoms that are present in the molecules' structure is known as the stereochemistry of the substance. Isomerization occurs when two molecules have the same chemical structure but distinct configurations.

The stereoisomers are the cis-trans isomers. The two comparable or higher priority groups are linked to the carbon atom with the double bond on the same side in the cis isomer. The two comparable or higher priority groups are connected to the carbon atom with the double are on the opposite side in the trans isomer.

Yes it could, but you'd have to set up the process very carefully.

I see two major challenges right away:

1).  Displacement of water would not be a wise method, since rock salt

is soluble (dissolves) in water.  So as soon as you start lowering it into

your graduated cylinder full of water, its volume would immediately start

to decrease.  If you lowered it slowly enough, you might even measure

a volume close to zero, and when you pulled the string back out of the

water, there might be nothing left on the end of it.

So you would have to choose some other fluid besides water ... one in

which rock salt doesn't dissolve.  I don't know right now what that could

be.  You'd have to shop around and find one.

2).  Whatever fluid you did choose, it would also have to be less dense

than rock salt.  If it's more dense, then the rock salt just floats in it, and

never goes all the way under.  If that happens, then you have a tough

time measuring the total volume of the lump.

So the displacement method could perhaps be used, in principle, but

it would not be easy.

90 g CH₃NH₃Cl should be dissolved in the solution to turn it into a buffer with pH.

90 g CH₃NH₃Cl should be used by the student to dissolve in the solution and to turn methylamine into a buffer with pH.

A 1.70 M of methylamine solution, weighing 450 mL, is delivered to a graduate student in chemistry.

Methylamine (weak base) has a Kb value of 4.4 x 104.

To create a buffer solution with a pH of 10.40 out of the methylamine solution, we should know how much CH₃NH₃Cl should the student dissolve in it.

We will use the Henderson-Hasselbach equation:

pH = pKa + log

So first we use Kb to calculate Ka and then calculate pKa:

Ka = Kw/Kb

⇒ Ka = 1x10⁻¹⁴/4.4x10⁻⁴ = 2.27x10⁻¹¹

pKa = -log(Ka) = 10.64

Now we can calculate the concentration of the salt, CH₃NH₃Cl:

pH = pKa + log (methylamine/salt)

10.40 = 10.64 + log (1.7/salt)

-0.24 = log (1.7/salt)

10⁻²⁴ = log (1.7/salt)

[Salt] = 2.95 M

Now, using the final volume and CH₃NH₃Cl's molecular weight, we can determine its mass and moles by,

450 mL ⇒ 450/1000 = 0.450 L

2.95 M × 0.450 L = 1.3275 mol CH₃NH₃Cl

1.3275 mol CH₃NH₃Cl × 67.45 g/mol = 89.54 g CH₃NH₃Cl

first we should  Understand the combustion of hydrocarbons. Pentane C₅H₁₂  is A hydrocarbon, or molecule with only carbon and hydrogen atoms. There are usually two predicted byproducts when we discuss the combustion of hydrocarbons: CO₂ and  6H₂O.

Remembering that "reaction with O2" refers to combustion, we may construct the following equation:

C₅H₁₂ (l) +O₂ (g) ⇒CO₂(g)  + H₂O(g)

Consequently, by counting the number of atoms in each side of the equation, we may find the equation's balance.

Right  side: 5 C atoms, 12 H atoms and 2 O atoms

Left : 1 C atom, 2 H atoms and 3 O atoms

By multiplying CO₂ by 5, we can start to create a balance:

C₅H₁₂ (l) +O₂ (g) ⇒ 5CO₂(g)  + H₂O(g)

We can now multiply  H₂O by 6 to obtain 12 H in the Left side:

The LHS now has 16 O, it should be noted. Let's then multiply O₂ by 8:

Potassium hydroxide will have the greatest total ion concentration at 25°C. The correct option is (C)

The total ion concentration is the sum of the molar concentration of all the ions in a solution. A solution of a compound will produce ions when dissolved in water, and the sum of the molar concentration of all the ions is known as the total ion concentration.

Potassium hydroxide (KOH) is a strong base that fully dissociates in water to produce potassium ions (K+) and hydroxide ions (OH-).So, if we add 1.0 mole of KOH to 1.0 L of water, we will obtain a 1.0 molar solution of KOH in which the molar concentration of K+ and OH- will both be 1.0 M.

On the other hand, ammonium carbonate, calcium phosphate, potassium chloride, and iron (II) nitrate will produce fewer ions in solution since they do not fully dissociate, so their total ion concentration will be lower.

Hence, we can say that, when 1.0 mole of the following compounds is added to 1.0 L of water, potassium hydroxide will have the greatest total ion concentration at 25°C.

The formula for pH at a weak acid-strong base titration's equivalence point must be used to determine the pH at each stage of the titration:

where pK a is the weak acid's acid dissociation constant, [A-] is the concentration of the acid's conjugate base, and [HA] is the acid's concentration.

The weak acid (formic acid) is at a concentration of 0.100 M at the start of the titration (0 mL of additional base), and the conjugate base (formate ion) is at a concentration of 0.00 M, resulting in a pH of:

[tex]pH = pK_a + log \frac{[A^-]}{[HA]} [/tex]

[tex]= pK_a + log \frac{0}{0.100} [/tex]

= pK_a + log(0)

We are unable to determine the pH at this time since the logarithm of 0 is undefinable.

The weak acid concentration falls as the titration goes along and more base is added, while the conjugate base concentration rises. The concentration of the weak acid is 15.0 mL when 15.0 mL of additional base is used.

[tex]0.100 M - \frac{0.200 M \times15 mL }{50 mL} [/tex]

= 0.080 M,

and the concentration of the conjugate base is

[tex] \frac{0.200 M \times 15 mL}{50 mL} [/tex]

= 0.060 M. The pH at this point is:

[tex]pH = pK_a + log \frac{[A^-]}{[HA]}[/tex]

[tex]= pK_a + log \frac{0.060}{0.080} [/tex]

= pK_a + log(0.75)

= pK_a + (-0.122)

You may use the same formula and the appropriate numbers for [A-] and [HA] to determine the pH at the other points in the titration.

It should be noted that the pH at the equivalence point (when the ratio of acid to base is equal) will be the same as the weak acid's pK a. Since the concentration of the weak acid is zero at the equivalence point, the pH is:

[tex]pH = pK_a + log \frac{[A^-]}{[HA]}[/tex]

[tex]= pK_a + log \frac{[A^-]}{0}[/tex]

[tex]= pK_a + log([A^-])[/tex]

The pH at the equivalence point will be lower than the pK a of the weak acid since the logarithm of a number less than 1 has a negative value. Beyond the equivalence point, adding more base will cause the pH to continue to drop.
