MCQ
What idea states that lower energy level orbitals will be filled with electrons before higher energy level orbitals?
  • A
    Pauli's exclusion principle.
  • B
    Octet rule.
  • Aufbau principle.
  • D
    Hund's rule.

Answer

Correct option: C.
Aufbau principle.
Aufbau's rule/ principle states that the sub shell and orbitals of lower energy must be filled first before higher energy levels. The energy is proportional to $(n + l)$ value.

Identify each species in the following equilibrium according to the code : . $SA =$ stronger acid ; $SB =$ stronger base ; $WA =$ weaker acid ; $WB =$  weaker base. The $pK_a$ of $(CH_3)_2 NH$ is $36$ ; the $pK_a$ of $CH_3OH$ is $15.2$

$\mathop {C{H_3}OH}\limits_1  + \mathop {{{(C{H_3})}_2}NH}\limits_2  \rightleftarrows C{H_3} - {O^ - }C{H_3} - \mathop {\mathop N\limits_{\mathop |\limits_H } H}\limits^ +   - C{H_3}$

Its basic strength is $10^{10}$ more than $I$ -dimethyl amino naphthalene. Reason for high basic strength is
When a strong acid, strong base or their salt are dissolved in water, they are completely ionised. If a strong acid is added to a strong base, ${H^ + }$ ions from the former combine with $O{H^ - }$ ions of the latter forming water. The formation of each water molecule liberates a certain quantity of energy and the reaction is exothermic. The heat liberated when one mole of water is formed by combining hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide is $ 13.7 \,kcal$.
