16 protons
Explanation: S2-: proton number 16; nucleon number 32
There are 16 protons (from the proton number). If it was a neutral atom, there would be 16 electrons.
We have to calculate the molar mass of AL(OH)₃
Atomic mass (Al)=27 amu
Atomic mass (O)=16 amu
Atomic mass (H)=1 amu
molecular weight= 27 amu+3(16 amu + 1 amu) =78 amu.
Therefore, the molar mass of Al (OH)₃ is 78 g/ mol
Now, we calculate the number of moles in 98.3 g of aluminum hydroxide.
78 g-------------------1 mol
98.3 g----------------- x
x=(98.3 g * 1 mol) / 78 g=1.26 moles.
Answer: 1.26 moles.
The ground-state electronic configuration follows the order of orbitals as shown in the first picture. So, we can deduce that the electronic configuration given is in order. However, each orbital must have a maximum number of electrons to be filled before it can move on to the next orbital. Since the d orbital must hold 10 electrons, that means that it should have held 5 electrons more. The missing 5 electrons were excited to the next 5p orbital.
<em>Thus, there are 5 excited electrons.</em>
Answer: Aluminium
Explanation:
The metals are solid substances, they have shiny luster, they conduct electricity and have high melting point. The aluminium is a kind of metal that have a solid surface, it has a shiny luster, the surface of metal appears to be polished. It conducts electricity and can be used in electrical cords, connections, and devices. It has a high melting point.
