The compound hexaazaisowurtzitane is one of the highest-energy explosives known (C E News, Jan. 17, 1994, p. 26). The compound, also known as CL-20, was first synthesized in 1987. The method of synthesis and detailed performance data are still classified because of CL-20s potential military application in rocket boosters and in warheads of smart weapons. The structure of CL-20 is In such shorthand structures, each point where lines meet represents a carbon atom. In addition, the hydrogens attached to the carbon atoms are omitted; each of the six carbon atoms has one hydrogen atom attached. Finally, assume that the two O atoms in the NO2 groups are attached to N with one single bond and one double bond. Three possible reactions for the explosive decomposition ofCL-20 are i. C6H6N12O12(s)6CO(g)+6N2(g)+3H2O(g)+32O2(g) ii. C6H6N12O12(s) 3CO(g) + 3CO2(g) + 6N2(g) + 3H2O(g) iii. C6H6N12O12(s) 6CO2(g) + 6N2(g) + 3H2 (g) a. Use bond energies to estimate E for these three reactions. b. Which of the above reactions releases the largest amount of energy per kilogram of CL-20?
Which of the following atoms contains only three valence electrons: Li, B, N, F, Ne?
Photoelectron spectroscopy studies of silicon atoms excited by X-rays with wavelength 9.8901010m show four peaks in which the electrons have speeds 2.097107ms1,2.093107ms1,2.014107ms1, and 1.971107ms1 . (Recall that 1J=1kgm2s2 .) (a) Calculate the ionization energy of the electrons in each peak. (b) Assign each peak to an orbital of the silicon atom.
At large interatomic separations, an alkali halide molecule MX has a lower energy as two neutral atoms, M+X ; at short separations, the ionic form (M+)(X) has a lower energy. At a certain distance, Rc , the energies of the two forms become equal, and it is near this distance that the electron will jump from the metal to the halogen atom during a collision. Because the forces between neutral atoms are weak at large distances, a reasonably good approximation can be made by ignoring any variation in potential V(R) for the neutral atoms between Rc and R= . For the ions in this distance range, Rc is dominated by their Coulomb attraction. (a) Express Rc for the first ionization energy of the metal M and the electron affinity of the halogen X. (b) Calculate Rc for LiF, KBr, and NaCl using data fromAppendix F.
Before the element scandium was discovered in 1879, it was known as “eka-boron.” Predict the properties of scandium from averages of the corresponding properties of its neighboring elements in the periodic table. Compare your predictions with the observed values in Appendix F.
Schrodinger and de Broglie suggested a ‘Wave—particle duality" for small particles—that is, if electromagnetic radiation showed some particle-like properties, then perhaps small punicles might exhibit same wave-like properties. Explain. How does the wave mechanical picture of the atom fundamentally differ from the Bohr model? How do wave mechanical arbitals differ from Bohr’s orbits? What does it mean to say that an orbital represents a probability map for an electron?
