Which of the following is the correct electron configuration for the $$\mathrm{O$$^{2-}$$}$$ ion?

Accepted Answer

$$1s^2$$\ $$2s^2$$\ $$2p^6$$

Question 9

Which of the following statements about periodic trends is correct?

Accepted Answer

Atomic radius decreases across a period from left to right.

Question 10

Which of the following Lewis structures is most likely for the nitrate ion ($$\mathrm{NO_3$^-}$$)?

Accepted Answer

Three resonance structures, each with one N=O double bond and two N–O single bonds, with a negative charge delocalized over the three oxygens.

Question 11

Which of the following bonds is both the strongest and the shortest?

Accepted Answer

Covalent triple bond

Question 12

What is the formal charge on the central atom in the best Lewis structure for $$\mathrm{SO_2$}$$?

Accepted Answer

0

Question 13

Which of the following best describes electronegativity?

Accepted Answer

The ability of an atom in a molecule to attract shared electrons to itself.

Question 14

Which of the following compounds contains both ionic and covalent bonds?

Accepted Answer

$$\mathrm{$$NaNO_3$$}$$

Question 15

A compound has a molar mass of $$58.12\ \mathrm{g/mol}$$ and an empirical formula of $$\mathrm{C_2H_5}. $$What is its molecular formula?

Accepted Answer

$$\mathrm{C_4H_{10}}$$

Question 16

Which of the following sets of quantum numbers is NOT allowed for an electron in an atom?

Accepted Answer

$$n=2,\ l=2,\ m_l=0,\ m_s=+\frac{1}{2}$$

Question 17

Which of the following statements about bond energy and bond length is correct?

Accepted Answer

Shorter bonds are generally stronger and have higher bond energies.

Question 18

Accepted Answer

16

Question 19

Which of the following best explains why $$\mathrm{Mg$$^{2+}$$} is $$smaller than $$\mathrm{Mg}$$?

Accepted Answer

Loss of two electrons reduces electron-electron repulsion and results in a smaller ionic radius.

Question 20

A 10.0 g sample of a compound contains 4.0 g of carbon, 0.67 g of hydrogen, and 5.33 g of oxygen. What is the mass percent of hydrogen in the compound?
