Define of skeletal chemical equation

Answer»

ton equation, is a way of using formulas to indicate the chemicals that are a part of the CHEMICAL reaction. In essence, it is identical to a word equation, except that the names of the reactants and the PRODUCTS are substituted by their chemical symbols. In skeleton equations, the physical states of the reactants and products are mentioned as subscripts on the right-hand side next to each element. The symbol (s) is used to represent a solid, (l) a liquid, (aq) an aqueous, and (g) a gas, this increases the utility of the skeleton equation. The FOLLOWING is an equation for the reaction that produces SALT: Na(s) + Cl2(g) -------> NaCl(s) The skeleton equation thus provides us with a better means of expressing a chemical reaction, as compared to a word equation. Even though there are two chlorine ATOMS on the reaction side, there is just a single one on the product side, one chlorine atom isn't accounted for by the skeleton equation. Thus, the skeleton equation shows only the elements which are involved in a chemical reaction, but does not express the quantities in which they react or are produced. Since the quantity of reactants on the left-hand side (LHS) mostly differs from the quantity of the product/s on the right-hand side (RHS), a skeleton equations is said to be an unbalanced equation.PLZ MARK IT BRAINLIST

Write the name of gas produced in Mathura refineries which can damage the great historical monument “Taj Mahal”?

Answer»

ndian government survey has revealed that the Taj Mahal, the nation's best-known monument, is again facing a major threat from pollution. The report, compiled by India's National Environment Engineering Research Institute, shows that measures taken after previous scares that the 17th-century tomb was being irreparably damaged by air and water pollution are failing. The survey, commissioned by the Ministry of Environment, found that pollution levels in the city of Agra, where the Taj Mahal is located, had risen significantly over recent years as a result of growth in industry, traffic and population. The £90m government programme, launched between 1998 and 2000 after the monument's famous white MARBLE was seen to be turning yellow, has had some impact, the report says, but not enough to keep up with pollution around the site. When launched, the programme received global attention, with President Bill Clinton saying that pollution had done "what 350 years of wars, invasions and natural disasters have failed to do [and] begun to mar the magnificent walls of the Taj Mahal". Vehicles are now banned from within 500 metres of the monument and an LED display gives a running count of air pollution. Sign up to the Green Light email to get the planet's most important stories Read more But the new report found that emissions of nitrogen oxide and particulates, for example, had reached levels higher than those that prompted a supreme court intervention to force authorities to act a decade ago. Environmental campaigners in Agra, a bustling manufacturing centre in the populous and poor northern Indian STATE of Uttar Pradesh, said that the Taj Mahal was also threatened by dropping water tables and pollution from the river Yamuna, which runs alongside the structure. "The levels are much lower than they were when it was built and there is a serious risk that the whole construction will be destabilised as its foundations are made of wood and need to be kept moist to avoid subsiding," said Ashwina Kumar Mishra, a local activist. "It is the most beautiful place in India and it will be a tragedy if something bad happens to it." Government archeologists WORKING at the Taj Mahal dismissed the claims of activists as "rumours". "These stories keep COMING up without facts," said ID Diwedi, a senior archeologist at the site.

Write the electronic configuration of (Z for Ni = 28).

Answer»

1 s 2 2 s 22 p 6 3 s 2 3 p 6 4 s 2 3 d 6 in the ground state  More correctly the electrons lost are the  4 s 2 leaving  1 s 2 2 s 2 2 p 6 3 s 2 3 p 6 3 d 8 Explanation: NICKEL  N i 28 has 28 electrons. 18 electrons fill up the THIRD electron shell leaving 10 valance electrons. 2 electrons in the 4s and 8 elections in the 3d. When Nickel becomes  N i + 2 Nickel has lost 2 electrons leaving the atom with only 8 valance electrons. The 4s electrons a lower energy level that the 3d electrons because of the simpler electron path of the S orbital. So in the ground state the electrons being lost should be the 3d electrons. However the 4s electrons are further from the nucleus so losing the the 2 4s electrons leaves only the third shell electrons making the atoms more stable than losing the 3d electrons. So the SOMEWHAT stable electron configuration of  N i + 2 is  1 s 2 2 s 2 2 p 6 3 s 2 3 p 6 3 d 8

Predict the sign of entropy change for each of the following changes of state : (a) Hg(l) → Hg(g) (b) (c) (d) C(graphite)→C(diamond)

Answer»

y is a "MEASURE" of the lack of thermal energy of any mechanical work system. It also represents the system's randomness. As randomness increases the system entropy. Entropy of the system is directly proportional to the randomness. Let's predict the sign of entropy change in the following. Here, liquid CHANGES to gas more disordered. Entropy changes into positive Here, solid changes to gas more disordered. Entropy changes into positive Here, gas changes to solid LESS disordered. Entropy changes into negative. GRAPHITE is more stable allotrope. Entropy changes into positive."

How can you show incompressible nature of gas molecules?

Answer»

modynamics, with RESPECT to pressure change the relative volume of SOLID or liquid change is called compressibility .i) In solid the molecules are very tightly packed. There are no space between the molecules hence it is difficult to compress ii) In liquid the molecules are somewhat loosely packed compared to solid hence these molecules are also difficult to compress. iii) But in case of gas the molecules are very loosely packed. It is very easy to compress the gas molecules. But in theoretical and practical purposes GASES are consider as incompressible in nature because they are moving at very at a very SLOW speed, which is 220miles/ HOUR

Although both and are triatomic molecules, the shape of molecule is bent while that of is linear. Explain this on the basis of dipole moment.

Answer»

nd in carbon dioxide is a polar bond hence there are two C=O bonds. Carbon dioxide MOLECULE has the zero- dipole moment. This can be POSSIBLE only if the molecule carbon dioxide BELONGS to the LINEAR molecule. The linear molecule of the carbon dioxide is given by O=C=O bond.     The dipole moment of the two bonds C=O eliminate the moment of each other where water molecule has the moment of dipole (1.84D). Because of O-H the has a bent like structure which are adapted at an angle  104.5° and the moment of the bond do not get cancelled each other.

Account for the following: The experimentally determined N-F bond length in is greater than the sum of the single covalent radii of N and F.

Answer»

ng the periodic table Nitrogen is the element belong to the group 15 which was also CALLED pnictogens. Fluroine is the element belong to the group 7 which was also called halogens. The reason that the length of the bond of N-F in the element NF3 seems to be greater than the total sum of the single COVALENT RADII of N and F because Nitrogen and Fluroine are SMALL and have highest electro density hence they do not attract each other and the pair of electrons which was bonded leading to the larger size of the bond than expected.

Addition of HBr to propene yields 2-bromopropane, while in the presence of benzoyl peroxide, the same reaction yields 1bromopropane. Explain and give mechanism.

Answer»

mple for electrophilic substitution REACTION is addition to Hydrogen Bromide. The ELECTROPHILE H+ was provided by Hydrogen Bromide. 1° and 2° carbocations are formed when the electrophile violates the double bond. The formation of carbocations is shown in first diagram.     Primary carbocations are less stable than the secondary carbocations. It will form in a very FAST manner so that the FORMER holds sway. Thus, in the next step the major product 2-bromopropane was formed when Br- violates the carbocation as shown in second diagram.    Carbon atom which has the lesser number of hydrogen ATOMS is connected with the adverse part of the addendum is formed. This reaction was followed by the rules 'Markovnikov's'.    With the presence of benzyl peroxide the reaction is added to convert anti to rule of Markovnikov's. The reaction is followed by the mechanism known as free radical chainasshown in third and fourth diagram.     Primary radicals are less stable than secondary free radicals. Hence it will form in a very faster manner so that the former holds sway. The major product is obtained as the result known as 1-bromopropane as shown in fifth diagram.     Br free radical acts as an electrophile because of the presence of peroxide. As a result, two different products are obtained on addition to Hydrogen Bromide to propene in the absence and presence of peroxide.
