Question

atom has an electron Hg 13. Which ground-state a configuration described by the 3 3d 4s A) Bromine B) germanium C) selenium D) tellurium E) none of these Using the figure below, categorize electromagnetic radiation with an energy of 14. 6.6 x 10-1e J/photon. Vice A) Gamma rays B) x rays C) Ultraviolet D) Infrared E) Microwave 15. Which of the following is the electron configuration for the bromide ion (Br)? A) [Ar B) [Ar4s23d104p C) [Kr] D) [Kr]5s24d105p E) [Xel 16. A mixture of three gases has a total pressure of 1,380 mmHg at 298 K. The mixture is analyzed and is found to contain 1.27 mol CO2, 3.04 mol CO, and 1.50 mol Ar. What is the partial pressure of Ar? A) 0.258 atm B) 5,345 mmHg C) 301 mmHg D) 356 mmHg E) 8,020 mmHg

Explanation / Answer

13. A) The Bromine has the described electronic configuration

14. D) The energy of the given radiation = 6.6 * 10 -16 J/Photon

The energy of 1 Photon = 1.238 eV

Energy = (6.6 * 10-16 * 6.24 * 1018 ) /1.2398

= 3321.82 eV

= 3.32182 meV which comes in the range of the Far infrared region of the electromagnetic spectrum.

15. C) The extra electron goes into the vacant 4p orbital making it fully filled stable system resulting in the next noble element Krypton.

Kr = [Ar]3d10 4s2 4p6

16. D)

Pt = P (CO2) + P ( CO ) + P(Ar) = 1380 mm Hg

Partial pressure = Mole fraction of Ar * Ptot

  Mole fraction of Ar = 1.5/(1.27+3.04+1.5)

= .258

Partial pressure of Ar = .258 * 1380 mm Hg =356.04 mm Hg
