Acertain mass of carbon reacts with 23.3 g of oxygen to form carbon monoxide. grams of oxygen would react with that same mass of carbon to form carbon dioxide, according to the law of multiple proportions.

The mass of oxygen than would react in is 46.6 grams

Explanation:

Law of multiple proportions states that when two elements combine to form two or more compounds in more than one proportion. The mass of one element that combine with a given mass of the other element are present in the ratios of small whole number.

We are given:

Mass of oxygen in carbon monoxide = 23.3 grams

The chemical formula of carbon monoxide is CO

We know that:

Molar mass of carbon = 12 g/mol

Molar mass of oxygen = 16 g/mol

In CO molecule:

If 16 g of oxygen element reacts with 12 g of carbon

o, 23.3 g of oxygen element will react with = of carbon

In molecule:

Taking mass of carbon = 17.475 grams

If 12 g of carbon reacts with 32 g of oxygen

So, 17.475 g of carbon will react with = of oxygen

Hence, the mass of oxygen than would react in is 46.6 grams

the electronic configuration of an atom with eight electrons is 1s²2s²2p⁴. the orbital diagrams are shown in the figure.

as per the hunds rule:

1. electrons tend to avoid being in the same orbital as per as practicable.

2. electrons in different orbitals of the same energy will have their spin parallel.

this can be illustrated from the multiplicity of the orbitals of the atom. as there are four electrons in the p orbital and p orbital has 3 sub-shells. the electrons can be fed in different ways as shown in the figure but the correct orbital diagram will be as per the hunds rule.

a 20-cm-long, cylindrical graphite (pure carbon) rod is inserted into an oxidizing atmosphere at 1145 k and 1.013 x 105 pa pressure. the oxidizing process is limited by the diffu- sion of oxygen counterflow to the carbon monoxide that is formed on the cylindrical surface.
