Discussed Questions

In the trigonal bipyramidal crystal field, the d orbital with the highest energy is:
  • a)
    dxy
  • b)
  • c)
    dyx
  • d)
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Edurev.iitjam answered

  • The trigonal bipyramidal crystal field splits the d orbitals into different energy levels.

  • The dz2 orbital has the highest energy because it points along the z-axis, which aligns with the axial positions of the trigonal bipyramidal geometry.

  • These axial positions experience more repulsion, increasing the energy of the dz... more orbital.

  • Other orbitals, like dxy and dyx, experience less direct interaction with ligands, leading to lower energy levels.

The difference between the equatorial and polar diameters of the Earth is _____
    Correct answer is '43'. Can you explain this answer?

    The Difference in Diameters
    The Earth is not a perfect sphere; it is an oblate spheroid. This means that its diameter is slightly larger at the equator compared to the poles. The difference in these diameters is known to be approximately 43 kilometers.

    • a)
      d3, d9
    • b)
      d4, d9
    • c)
      d5 , d9

    Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

    Asf Institute answered
    Jahn-Teller Distortion in Highspin Transition Metal Ions
    The Jahn-Teller effect is a phenomenon observed in high-spin transition metal ions with partially filled d-orbitals in an octahedral field. It occurs due to the interaction between electrons and the degenerate molecular orbitals in the octahedral crystal field.

    Explanation:
    - Highspin transition metal ions have partially filled d-orbitals and exhibit strong electron-electron repulsion.
    - When placed in an octahedral field, the d-orbitals split into two sets of degenerate orbitals, known as t2g and eg.
    - In highspin ions, the electrons occupy the t2g orbitals before the eg orbitals due to the Hund's rule.
    - However, this arrangement is not energetically favorable as the t2g orbitals are more stable than the eg orbitals.
    - The Jahn-Teller effect occurs when the degeneracy of the eg orbitals is lifted by a distortion of the octahedral field, leading to a lowering of the energy of the system.
    - The distortion can be either elongation or compression of the octahedral field along one of the axes.
    - The distortion causes the electrons to occupy the lower energy eg orbital, resulting in a non-degenerate ground state.
    - Only those pairs of electronic configurations of highspin transition metal ions that exhibit the Jahn-Teller effect undergo substantial distortion.

    - Option 'B' is correct as it represents the pair of electronic configurations d4 and d9, which exhibit the Jahn-Teller effect. The d4 ion has two electrons in the eg orbitals and two in the t2g orbitals, while the d9 ion has one electron in the eg orbitals and four in the t2g orbitals. Both these ions have partially filled eg orbitals, which are energetically unstable and undergo Jahn-Teller distortion to lower the energy.

    If A=[3,-2][2,-1]is a2×2 matrix then find value of A^20?

    Vandana Chopra answered  •  Jan 04, 2025
    To find A^20 for the matrix A = [3, -2; 2, -1], we can use the method of diagonalization. Here’s a step-by-step explanation.
    Step 1: Find Eigenvalues
    - Calculate the characteristic polynomial:
    det(A - λI) = 0
    - For A = [3, -2; 2, -1], we have:
    (3-λ)(-1-λ) - (-2)(2) = 0
    This simplifies to:
    λ^2 - 2λ + 1 = 0
    - The eigenvalues are λ = 1 (multipl

    Understanding Root Mean Square Velocity
    The root mean square (RMS) velocity is a measure of the speed of particles in a gas. It is derived from the kinetic theory of gases, which relates the temperature of a gas to the average kinetic energy of its molecules.
    RMS Velocity Formula
    The RMS velocity (v_rms) can be expressed as:

    2 Centre 2 Electron Bond
    The 2 centre 2 electron bond is a type of chemical bond that involves two atoms sharing two electrons. This type of bond is commonly found in diatomic molecules like hydrogen (H2) and halogens (Cl2, F2, etc.). The bond is formed when two atomic orbitals overlap to share two electrons.

    • d)

    Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

    Vandana Chopra answered  •  Feb 20, 2024
    Explanation:


    Isolated and closed systems are not the same in the field of thermodynamics. Let's differentiate between the two:

    Isolated System:

    - An isolated system does not exchange matter or energy with its surroundings.
    - It does not allow the transfer of heat or work across its boundaries.
    - The total energy within an isolated system remains constant.

    Closed System:

    - A closed system allows the exchange of energy but not matter with its surroundings.
    - It permits the transfer of heat and work across its boundaries.
    - The total energy within a closed system can change due to heat or work interactions.

    Explanation of the Answer:

    The statement that isolated and closed systems are the same is false because they have different characteristics regarding the exchange of matter and energy with the surroundings. Isolated systems do not allow any exchange, while closed systems permit the transfer of energy. It is essential to understand these distinctions to apply the appropriate thermodynamic principles in different scenarios.
