of the reactants and products, not just the mass of the solids.
The total mass of the reactants and products remained constant.
His measurements showed that a gas was involved in the
reaction. He called this gas oxygen (one of his key discoveries).
1.16 A well-designed experiment must have the following
essential features: (1) There must be at least two variables that
are expected to be related; (2) there must be a way to control
all the variables, so that only one at a time may be changed;
(3) the results must be reproducible. 1.19(a) (1 m)2/(100 cm)2

• 2.1 Compounds contain different types of atoms; there is
only one type of atom in an element. 2.4(a) The presence
of more than one element makes pure calcium chloride a
compound. (b) There is only one kind of atom, so sulfur is an
element. (c) The presence of more than one compound makes
baking powder a mixture. (d) The presence of more than one
type of atom means cytosine cannot be an element. The
specific, not variable, arrangement means it is a compound.
2.12(a) elements, compounds, and mixtures (b) compounds
(c) compounds 2.14(a) Law of definite composition: the composition is the same regardless of its source. (b) Law of mass
conservation: the total quantity of matter does not change.
(c) Law of multiple proportions: two elements can combine to
form two different compounds that have different proportions
of those elements. 2.16(a) No, the percent by mass of each
element in a compound is fixed. (b) Yes, the mass of each
element in a compound depends on the amount of compound.
2.18 The two experiments demonstrate the law of definite composition. The unknown compound decomposes the same way
both times. The experiments also demonstrate the law of conservation of mass since the total mass before reaction equals
the total mass after reaction. 2.20(a) 1.34 g F (b) 0.514 Ca;

2.26 compound 1: 0.905 S/Cl; compound 2: 0.451 S/Cl; ratio:
2.00/1.00 2.29 Coal A 2.31 Dalton postulated that atoms of an
element are identical and that compounds result from the
chemical combination of specific ratios of different elements.
2.32 If you know the ratio of any two quantities and the value
of one of them, the other can always be calculated; in this
case, the charge and the mass/charge ratio were known.
2.36 The atomic number is the number of protons in an atom’s
nucleus. When the atomic number changes, the identity of the
element changes. The mass number is the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. The identity of an element is
based on the number of protons, not the number of neutrons.
The mass number can vary (by a change in number of neutrons) without changing the identity of the element. 2.39 All
three isotopes have 18 protons and 18 electrons. Their respective mass numbers are 36, 38, and 40, with the respective
numbers of neutrons being 18, 20, and 22. 2.41(a) These have
the same number of protons and electrons, but different numbers of neutrons; same Z. (b) These have the same number of
neutrons, but different numbers of protons and electrons; same
N. (c) These have different numbers of protons, neutrons, and
electrons; same A.

elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic number.
(b) Elements in a group (or family) have similar chemical properties. (c) Elements can be classified as metals, metalloids, or
nonmetals. 2.55 The alkali metals [Group 1] are metals and
readily lose one electron to form cations; the halogens [Group
17] are nonmetals and readily gain one electron to form
anions. 2.56(a) germanium; Ge; 14; metalloid (b) phosphorus;

two kinds of substances will form ionic bonds, in which one
or more electrons are transferred from the metal atom to the
nonmetal atom to form a cation and an anion, respectively.
2.63 Coulomb’s law states the energy of attraction in an ionic
bond is directly proportional to the product of charges and
inversely proportional to the distance between charges. The
product of charges in MgO [(2) (2)] is greater than that in
LiF [(1) (1)]. Thus, MgO has stronger ionic bonding.
2.66 The Group 1 elements form cations, and the Group 17
elements form anions. 2.68 Each potassium atom loses one
electron to form an ion with a 1 charge. Each sulfur atom
gains two electrons to form an ion with a 2 charge. Two
potassiums, losing one electron each, are required for each
sulfur, which gains two electrons. The oppositely charged ions
attract each other to form an ionic solid, K2S. 2.70 K; I

indicate that there are two Fions for each Mg1 ion. Using
this information and the mass of each element, we can calculate
percent mass of each element in the compound. 2.80 The two
samples are similar in that both contain 20 billion oxygen
atoms and 20 billion hydrogen atoms. They differ in that they
contain different types of molecules: H2O2 molecules in the
hydrogen peroxide sample, and H2 and O2 molecules in the
mixture. In addition, the mixture contains 20 billion molecules
(10 billion H2 and 10 billion O2), while the hydrogen peroxide

5.28(a) This is a phase change from the solid phase to the gas
phase. Heat is absorbed by the system so qsys is positive ().
(b) The volume of the system is expanding as more moles of
gas are present after the phase change than were present before
the phase change. So the system has done work of expansion,
and w is negative. Since Usys q w, q is positive, and w
is negative, the sign of Usys cannot be predicted. It will be
positive if q w and negative if q w. (c) Uuniv 0. If
the system loses energy, the surroundings gain an equal
amount of energy. The sum of the energy of the system and
the energy of the surroundings remains constant. 5.31 To
determine the specific heat capacity of a substance, you need
its mass, the heat added (or lost), and the change in temperature. 5.33 Heat capacity is the quantity of heat required to
raise the temperature of an object 1 K. Specific heat capacity
is the quantity of heat required to raise 1 g of a material by 1

absorbing or emitting a photon whose energy is equal to the

8.33 336 kJ/mol 8.34 When two chlorine atoms are far apart,
there is no interaction between them. As the atoms move
closer together, the nucleus of each atom attracts the electrons
of the other atom. The closer the atoms, the greater this attraction; however, the repulsions of the two nuclei and the electrons also increase at the same time. The final internuclear
distance is the distance at which maximum attraction is
achieved in spite of the repulsion. 8.35 The bond energy is the
energy required to break the bond between H atoms and Cl
atoms in one mole of HCl molecules in the gaseous state.
Energy is needed to break bonds, so bond breaking is always
endothermic and bond breakingH is positive. The quantity of
energy needed to break the bond is released upon its formation, so bond formingH has the same magnitude as bond breakingH
but is opposite in sign (always exothermic and negative).

bonded H atom becomes more positive. Fluorine is the smallest of the three and the most electronegative, so the hydrogen
bonds in hydrogen fluoride are the strongest. Oxygen is
smaller and more electronegative than nitrogen, so hydrogen
bonds in water are stronger than hydrogen bonds in ammonia.
11.57 The cohesive forces in water and mercury are stronger
than the adhesive forces to the nonpolar wax on the floor.
Weak adhesive forces result in spherical drops. The adhesive
forces overcome the even weaker cohesive forces in the oil,
and so the oil drop spreads out. 11.59 Surface tension is defined
as the energy needed to increase the surface area by a given
amount, so units of energy per area are appropriate.
11.61 CH3CH2CH2OH HOCH2CH2OH HOCH2CH(OH)
CH2OH. More hydrogen bonding means more attraction
between molecules, so more energy is needed to increase surface area. 11.63 HOCH2CH(OH)CH2OH HOCH2CH2OH CH3CH2CH2OH. More hydrogen bonding means more attraction between neighbouring molecules, so they flow less easily.
11.68 Water is a good solvent for polar and ionic substances
and a poor solvent for nonpolar substances. Water is a polar
molecule and dissolves polar substances because their intermolecular forces are of similar strength. 11.69 A single water
molecule can form four hydrogen bonds. The two hydrogen
atoms each form one hydrogen bond to oxygen atoms on
neighbouring water molecules. The two lone pairs on the oxygen atom form hydrogen bonds with hydrogen atoms on two
neighbouring molecules. 11.72 Water exhibits strong capillary
action, which allows it to be easily absorbed by the plant’s
roots and transported upward to the leaves. 11.78 simple cubic
11.81 The energy gap is the energy difference between the
highest filled energy level (valence band) and the lowest
unfilled energy level (conduction band). In conductors and
superconductors, the energy gap is zero because the valence
band overlaps the conduction band. In semiconductors, the
energy gap is small. In insulators, the gap is large. 11.83 atomic

Answers to Boxed Reading Problem: B12.1 (a) The colloidal
particles in water generally have negatively charged surfaces
and so repel each other, slowing the settling process. Cake
alum, Al2(SO4)3, is added to coagulate the colloids. The Al3
ions neutralize the negative surface charges and allow the particles to aggregate and settle. (b) Water that contains large
amounts of divalent cations (such as Ca2, and Mg2) is called
hard water. During cleaning, these ions combine with the
fatty-acid anions in soaps to produce insoluble deposits.
(c) In reverse osmosis, a pressure greater than the osmotic
pressure is applied to the solution, forcing the water back
through the membrane, leaving the ions behind. (d) Chlorine
may give the water an unpleasant odor, and can form carcinogenic chlorinated compounds. (e) The high concentration of
NaCl displaces the divalent and polyvalent ions from the
ion-exchange resin.

cause the ions to separate, and many water molecules cluster
around each ion in hydration shells. Ion-dipole forces bind the
outermost shell to an ion. The water molecules in that shell
form hydrogen bonds to others to create the next shell, and so
on. 12.4 Sodium stearate is a more effective soap because the
hydrocarbon chain in the stearate ion is longer than that in the
ethanoate (acetate) ion. The longer chain allows for more dispersion forces with grease molecules. 12.7 KNO3 is an ionic

soluble in water due to extensive hydrogen bonding by the
OH groups attached to five of its carbons. The dispersion
forces in the nonpolar tail of caproic acid are more similar to
the dispersion forces in hexane; thus, caproic acid is soluble in
hexane. 12.18 The energy changes needed to separate solvent

example, the electron configuration for Be is 1s22s2 and for B
it is 1s22s22p1. It is easier to remove the p electron of B than
an s electron of Be, because the energy of a p orbital is higher

increase in pressure will increase the concentration, resulting in
an increased rate. 14.3 The addition of water will lower the
concentrations of all dissolved solutes, and the rate will
decrease. 14.5 An increase in temperature increases the rate by
increasing the number of collisions between particles, but more

importantly, it increases the energy of collisions. 14.8(a) The
instantaneous rate is the rate at one point in time during the
reaction. The average rate is the average over a period of time.
On a graph of reactant concentration vs. time, the instantaneous rate is the slope of the tangent to the curve at any point.
The average rate is the slope of the line connecting two points
on the curve. The closer together the two points (the shorter the
time interval), the closer the average rate is to the instantaneous
rate. (b) The initial rate is the instantaneous rate at the point
on the graph where t 0, that is, when reactants are mixed.

14.47 No, other factors that affect the rate are the energy and
orientation of the collisions. 14.50 Measure the rate constant at
a series of temperatures and plot ln k versus 1/T. The slope of
the line equals Ea/R. 14.53 No, reaction is reversible and will
eventually reach a state where the forward and reverse rates
are equal. When this occurs, there are no concentrations equal
to zero. Since some reactants are reformed from EF, the
amount of EF will be less than 4 105 mol. 14.54 At the
same temperature, both reaction mixtures have the same average kinetic energy, but the reactant molecules do not have the
same average velocity. The trimethylamine molecule has
greater mass than the ammonia molecule, so trimethylamine
molecules will collide less often with HCl. Moreover, the
A-34

bulky groups bonded to nitrogen in trimethylamine mean that
collisions with HCl having the correct orientation occur less
frequently. Therefore, the rate of the reaction between NH3 and
HCl is higher. 14.55 12 unique collisions 14.57 2.96 1018

14.65 The rate of an overall reaction depends on the rate of the
slowest step. The rate of the overall reaction will be lower than
the average of the individual rates because the average includes
higher rates as well. 14.69 The probability of three particles
colliding with one another with the proper energy and orientation is much less than the probability for two particles. 14.70

Chapter 16
16.2(a) All Arrhenius acids have H in their formula and produce hydronium ion (H3O) in aqueous solution. All Arrhenius
bases have OH in their formula and produce hydroxide ion
(OH) in aqueous solution. (b) Neutralization occurs when
each H3O ion combines with an OH ion to form two
molecules of H2O. Chemists found the reaction of any strong
base with any strong acid always had a H of 56 kJ/mol
H2O produced.
16.4(a) The Brønsted-Lowry theory defines acids as proton
donors and bases as proton acceptors, while the Arrhenius
definition looks at acids as containing ionizable hydrogen
atoms and at bases as containing hydroxide ions. In both
definitions, an acid produces H (H3O) ions and a base
produces OH ions when added to water. (b) Ammonia and
carbonate ion are two Brønsted-Lowry bases that are not
Arrhenius bases because they do not contain OH ions. BrønstedLowry acids must contain an ionizable hydrogen atom in order
to be proton donors, so a Brønsted-Lowry acid is also an
Arrhenius acid. 16.7 An amphiprotic species is one that can
lose a proton to act as an acid or gain a proton to act as a
base. The dihydrogen phosphate ion, H2PO4, is an example
H2PO4 (aq) OH (aq) ¡ H2O(aq) HPO2

In the presence of a strong acid (HCl), the dihydrogen phosphate ion acts like a base by accepting hydrogen:
H2PO4 (aq) HCl(aq) ¡ H3PO4(aq) Cl (aq)
16.8(a) Strong acids and bases dissociate completely into ions
when dissolved in water. Weak acids and bases dissociate only
partially. (b) The characteristic property of all weak acids and
bases is that a great majority of the molecules are undissociated.

16.104 As a nonmetal becomes more electronegative, the
acidity of its binary hydride increases. The electronegative
nonmetal attracts the electrons more strongly in the polar bond,
shifting the electron density away from H, thus making H
more easily transferred to a water molecule to form H3O.

Sr2 is the conjugate acid of a strong base, Sr(OH)2, and Br–
is the conjugate base of a strong acid, HBr, so neither change
the pH of the solution. (b) A solution of barium acetate is
basic because CH3COO– is the conjugate base of a weak acid

an electron-pair acceptor while a Brønsted-Lowry acid is a
proton donor. The proton of a Brønsted-Lowry acid is a Lewis
acid because it accepts an electron pair when it bonds with a

• 19.1 Oxidation is the loss of electrons and results in a higher
oxidation number; reduction is the gain of electrons and results
in a lower oxidation number. 19.3 No, one half-reaction cannot take place independently because there is a transfer of
electrons from one substance to another. If one substance loses
electrons, another substance must gain them. 19.6 To remove
H ions from an equation, add an equal number of OH ions
to both sides to neutralize the H ions and produce water.

19.72 A; 0.083 V 19.74 Electrons flow from the anode,
where oxidation occurs, to the cathode, where reduction
occurs. The electrons always flow from the anode to the cathode no matter what type of battery. 19.76 A D-sized alkaline
battery is larger than an AAA-sized one, so it contains greater
amounts of the cell components. (a) The cell potential is an
intensive property and does not depend on the amounts of the
cell components. (b) The total charge, however, does depend
on the amount of cell components, so the D-sized battery produces more charge. 19.78 The Teflon spacers keep the two
metals separated so that the copper cannot conduct electrons
that would promote the corrosion (rusting) of the iron skeleton.
19.81 Sacrificial anodes are made of metals with E less than
that of iron, 0.44 V, so they are more easily oxidized than
iron. Only b, f, and g will work for iron: a will form an oxide
coating that prevents further oxidation; c will react with
groundwater quickly; d and e are less easily oxidized than iron.
19.83 To reverse the reaction requires 0.34 V with the cell in its
standard state. A 1.5 V cell supplies more than enough potential, so the Cd metal is oxidized to Cd2 and Cr metal plates
out. 19.85 The oxidation number of N in NO3 is 5, the
maximum O.N. for N. In the nitrite ion, NO2, the O.N. of N

and sulfate ions conduct a current, facilitating electrolysis. Pure
water, which contains very low (107mol/L) concentrations of
H and OH, conducts electricity very poorly. (b) The reduction of H2O has a more positive half-potential than does the
reduction of Na; the oxidation of H2O is the only reaction
possible because SO42 cannot be oxidized. Thus, it is easier
to reduce H2O than Na and easier to oxidize H2O than SO42.

Appendix G • Brief Answers to Selected Problems
The energy for step 3 is similar for all three elements, so the
difference in energy for the overall reaction depends on the
values for hydrationH and IE. The Li ion has a much greater
hydration energy than Na and K because it is smaller, with
a larger charge density that holds the water molecules more
tightly. The energy required to remove the waters surrounding
Li offsets the lower ionization energy, making the overall
energy for the reduction of lithium larger than expected.
19.125 The very high and very low standard electrode potentials
involve extremely reactive substances, such as F2 (a powerful
oxidizer) and Li (a powerful reducer). These substances react
directly with water because any aqueous cell with a voltage of
more than 1.23 V has the ability to electrolyze water into
hydrogen and oxygen.

Chapter 20
• 20.2(a) Carbon’s electronegativity is midway between the
most metallic and most nonmetallic elements of Period 2. To
attain a filled outer shell, carbon forms covalent bonds to other
atoms in molecules, network covalent solids, and polyatomic
ions. (b) Since carbon has four valence electrons, it forms four
covalent bonds to attain an octet. (c) To reach the He electron
configuration, a carbon atom must lose four electrons, requiring too much energy to form the C4 cation. To reach the
Ne electron configuration, the carbon atom must gain four
electrons, also requiring too much energy to form the C4
anion. (d) Carbon is able to bond to itself extensively because
its small size allows for close approach and great orbital overlap. The extensive orbital overlap results in a strong, stable
bond. (e) The COC bond is short enough to allow sideways
overlap of unhybridized p orbitals of neighbouring C atoms.
The sideways overlap of p orbitals results in the bonds that
are part of double and triple bonds. 20.3(a) H, O, N, P, S, and
halogens (F, Cl, Br, I) (b) Heteroatoms are atoms of any element other than carbon and hydrogen. (c) More electronegative
than C: N, O, F, Cl, and Br; less electronegative than C: H and
P. Sulfur and iodine have the same electronegativity as carbon.
(d) Since carbon can bond to a wide variety of heteroatoms and
to carbon atoms, it can form many different compounds.
20.6 The COH and COC bonds are unreactive because electronegativities are close and the bonds are short. The COI
bond is reactive because it is long and weak. The C“O bond
is reactive because oxygen is more electronegative than carbon
and the electron-rich bond makes it attract electron-poor
atoms. The COLi bond is also reactive because the bond
polarity results in an electron-rich region around carbon and an
electron-poor region around lithium. 20.7(a) An alkane is an
organic compound consisting of carbon and hydrogen in which
there are no multiple bonds between carbon atoms, only single
bonds. A cycloalkane is an alkane in which the carbon chain is
arranged in a ring. (b) The general formula for an alkane is
CnH2n2. The general formula for a cycloalkane is CnH2n.
(elimination of two hydrogen atoms is required to form the
additional bond between carbon atoms in the ring)

21.68 In general, aromatic rings are much less reactive (more
stable) than compounds with isolated C“C double bonds
because of their delocalized electrons. The benzene ring can
undergo electrophilic substitution, nucleophilic substitution,
elimination, and addition reactions, while the alkenes mainly
undergo addition reactions. 21.73 The aniline is a good ortho/
para director and under weak acidic conditions (right hand
arrow) dominates the course of the reaction. Under strongly
acidic conditions, the aniline is protonated, making it a weak
meta director, and the methyl group (an ortho/para directing
group) and the protonated aniline give the alternative product
(left hand arrow). 21.74 The C“C bond is nonpolar while the
C“O bond is polar, since oxygen is more electronegative than
carbon. Therefore, in the case of addition to a C“O bond, the
electron-rich group will bond to the carbon and the electron-poor
group will bond to the oxygen, resulting in one product, while
the addition to the alkene depends on the structure of the alkene.

22.81 O-H bonds are readily exchangeable in CDCl3. The
protons attached to the hydroxyl groups are clearly seen. When
the sample is shaken with D2O, the deuterium in the D2O can
exchange with OH groups of the sample, converting them to
OD groups. As deuterium atoms cannot be seen in 1H NMR,
the OD groups can no longer been seen. 22.83 two 22.86 two;

22.71 As chlorine is a highly electronegative atom, it increases
the positive charge on the carbon of the carbonyl compared to
propan-2-one (acetone). This in turn makes the carbonyl more
polarized and increases the bond strength. As stronger bonds
vibrate at larger wavenumbers, it increases the frequency of the
absorption. 22.77 four

22.95(a)The complementary sequence to GATCGACTA would
be: CTAGCTGAT. The RNA sequence would be different since
RNA contains U instead of T, therefore the sequence would
be: CUAGCUGAU. (b) It requires 3 bases in order to code
for one amino acid, therefore this sequence could code for
3 amino acids. (c) GC would not be a good technique to separate this nucleotide sequence from a mixture of other nucleotides since the molecular weight of the sequence and polarity
mean that the nucleotide is not volatile enough. Liquid chromatography or better yet gel electrophoresis would be better
separation techniques.

22.55 The nitrogen-containing bases form hydrogen bonds to
their complementary bases. The flat, N-containing bases stack
above each other, which allows extensive dispersion forces.
The exterior negatively charged sugar-phosphate chains form
ion-dipole and hydrogen bonds with water molecules in the
aqueous surroundings, which also stabilizes the structure.
22.58 Dispersion forces are present between the nonpolar tails
of the lipid molecules within the bilayer. The polar heads interact with the aqueous surroundings through hydrogen bonds and
ion-dipole forces. 22.61 Secondary 22.64 (a) Both R groups

(b) Rubber gloves need to be flexible at room temperature, not
hard and brittle, like glass, which is how this polymer becomes
when it is cooled below its Tg (50 C). Therefore, it will not
be suitable for making rubber gloves. (c) Since this is a polymer, Size Exclusion Chromatography (SEC) would likely be
the best technique to analyze it, though it might also be possible to use liquid chromatography.

concentration in the atmosphere and creating an environment
for oxidizing metals. The oxygen-free decay of plant and

Appendix G • Brief Answers to Selected Problems
nitrogen is fixed by three pathways: atmospheric, industrial,
and biological. Atmospheric fixation requires high-temperature
reactions (e.g., initiated by lightning) to convert N2 into NO
and other oxidized species. Industrial fixation involves mainly
the formation of ammonia, NH3, from N2 and H2. Biological
fixation occurs in nitrogen-fixing bacteria that live on the roots
of legumes. Human activity is an example of industrial
fixation. It contributes about 17% of the fixed nitrogen.

to the free metal using heat and a reducing agent such as coke.
(c) Flotation is a separation process in which the ore is
removed from the gangue by exploiting the difference in
density in the presence of detergent. The gangue sinks to the
bottom and the lighter ore-detergent mix is skimmed off the
top. (d) Refining is the final step in the purification process to
yield the pure metal. 23.25(a) Slag is a byproduct of steelmaking and contains the impurity SiO2. (b) Pig iron is the
impure product of iron metallurgy (containing 3–4% C and
other impurities). (c) Steel refers to iron alloyed with other
elements to attain desirable properties. (d) The basic-oxygen
process is used to purify pig iron and obtain carbon steel.
23.27 Iron and nickel are more easily oxidized and less easily
reduced than copper. They are separated from copper in the
roasting step and converted to slag. In the electrorefining process, all three metals are in solution, but only Cu2 ions are
reduced at the cathode to form Cu(s). 23.30 According to Le
Châtelier’s principle, the system shifts toward formation of K
when the potassium gas is removed as it is produced.

more favorable to reduce H2O to H2 than to reduce M to M.
(b) 2RbX Ca ¡ CaX2 2Rb, where H IE1(Ca) IE2(Ca) 2IE1(Rb) 929 kJ/mol. Based on the IEs and positive H for the forward reaction, it seems more reasonable that
Rb metal will reduce Ca2 than the reverse. (c) If the reaction
is carried out at a temperature greater than the boiling point of
Rb, the product mixture will contain gaseous Rb, which can be
removed from the reaction vessel; this would cause a shift in
the equilibrium to form more Rb as product. (d) 2CsX Ca

separate gaseous Cs from molten CsX if the reaction is carried
out at a temperature between the boiling point of Cs and Ca.

speed up the reaction, but because the reaction is exothermic,
increasing the temperature decreases the yield. Adding a catalyst increases the rate of the reaction, allowing a lower temperature to be used to enhance the yield. 23.51(a) Cl2, H2, and

(b) Examples are Mn, [Ar]4s23d5, and Fe3, [Ar]3d5. 24.6(a)
The elements should increase in size as they increase in mass
from Period 5 to Period 6. Because there are 14 inner transition elements in Period 6, the effective nuclear charge
increases significantly; so the atomic size decreases, or “contracts.” This effect is significant enough that Zr4 and Hf 4 are
almost the same size but differ greatly in atomic mass.
(b) The atomic size increases from Period 4 to Period 5, but
stays fairly constant from Period 5 to Period 6. (c) Atomic
mass increases significantly from Period 5 to Period 6, but
atomic radius (and thus volume) increases slightly, so Period 6
elements are very dense. 24.9(a) A paramagnetic substance is
attracted to a magnetic field, while a diamagnetic substance is
slightly repelled by one. (b) Ions of transition elements often
have partially filled d orbitals whose unpaired electrons make
the ions paramagnetic. Ions of main-group elements usually
have a noble-gas configuration with no partially filled levels.
(c) Some d orbitals in the transition element ions are empty,
which allows an electron from one d orbital to move to a
slightly higher energy one. The energy required for this transition is small and falls in the visible wavelength range. All
orbitals are filled in ions of main-group elements, so enough
energy would have to be added to move an electron to the next
principal energy level, not just another orbital within the same
energy level. This amount of energy is very large and much
greater than the visible range of wavelengths.

24.22 Atomic size increases slightly down a group of transition
elements, but nuclear charge increases much more, so the first
ionization energy generally increases. The reduction potential
for Mo is lower, so it is more difficult to oxidize Mo than Cr.
In addition, the ionization energy of Mo is higher than that of
Cr, so it is more difficult to remove electrons from Mo.

ligands, the ligands approach along the x, y, and z axes. The
dx2 y2 and dz2 orbitals are located along the x, y, and z axes, so

dxy, dyz, and dxz orbitals and lesser for the dx2 y2 and dz2 orbitals.
Therefore, the crystal field splitting is reversed, and the dxy, dyz,

Answers to Boxed Reading Problems: B25.1 In the s-process,
a nucleus captures a neutron sometime over a long period of
time. Then the nucleus emits a beta particle to form another
element. The stable isotopes of most heavy elements up
to 209Bi form by the s-process. The r-process very quickly
forms less stable isotopes and those with A greater than

I is 1.4; it is stable. (b) The N/Z ratio for 106Sn is 1.1; it is
unstable because this ratio is too low. (c) The N/Z ratio is
1.1 for 68As. The ratio is within the range of stability, but the
nuclide is most likely unstable because there are odd numbers
of both protons and neutrons. 25.20(a) alpha decay (b) positron

of magic numbers. The N/Z ratio of 52Cr is 1.17, which is
within the band of stability. The fact that Z is even does not
account for the variation in stability because all isotopes of
chromium have the same Z. However, 52Cr has 28 neutrons, so
N is both an even number and a magic number for this isotope
only. 25.28 seven emissions and four emissions
25.31 No, it is not valid to conclude that t1/2 equals 1 min
because the number of nuclei is so small. Decay rate is an
average rate and is only meaningful when the sample is macroscopic and contains a large number of nuclei. For the sample
containing 6 1012 nuclei, the conclusion is valid. 25.33 2.56

that a neutron has a mass approximately equal to that of a proton. It was observed that a neutron beam induces the emission
of protons from a substance; radiation does not cause such
emission. 25.52 Protons are repelled from the target nuclei due
to interaction with like (positive) charges. Higher energy is
required to overcome the repulsion. 25.53(a) 105B 42 ¡ 10n

25.65 1.86 103 rad 25.67 NAA does not destroy the sample,
while chemical analyses do. Neutrons bombard a nonradioactive sample, inducing some atoms within the sample to be
radioactive. The radioisotopes decay by emitting radiation
characteristic of each isotope. 25.73 Energy is released when a
nucleus forms from nucleons. The nuclear binding energy is
the quantity of energy holding 1 mol of nuclei together. This
energy must be absorbed to break up the nucleus into nucleons
and is released when nucleons come together. 25.75(a) 1.861

spontaneous process in which unstable nuclei emit radioactive
particles and energy. Fission occurs as the result of highenergy bombardment of nuclei with small particles that cause
the nuclei to break into smaller nuclides, radioactive particles,
and energy. All fission events are not the same. The nuclei
split in a number of ways to produce several different products. 25.88 The water serves to slow the neutrons so that they
are better able to cause a fission reaction. Heavy water is a
better moderator because it does not absorb neutrons as well as
light water does; thus, more neutrons are available to initiate
the fission process. However, D2O does not occur naturally in
great abundance, so its production adds to the cost of a heavywater reactor. 25.93(a) 1.1 1029 kg (b) 9.9 1013 J

(d) Radiocarbon dating is more reliable for the fraction in part
(ii) because a significant amount of 14C has decayed and a
significant amount remains. Therefore, a change in the amount
of 14C will be noticeable. For the fraction in part (i), very
little 14C has decayed, and for (iii) very little 14C remains. In
either case, it will be more difficult to measure the change, so
the error will be relatively large. 25.106 6.579 h 25.110 4.969 109 L/h 25.113 81 yr 25.115(a) 0.15 Bq/L (b) 0.27 Bq/L
