a. 1s 2s 2p 3s 3p 4s 3d 4p is the correct option.

This gives the following order to fill the orbit: 1s, 2s, 2p, 3s, 3p, 4s, 3d, 4p, 5s, 4d, 5p, 6s, 4f, 5d, 6p, 7s, 5f, 6d, 7p, (8s, 5g, 6f, 7d, 8p, and 9s)

Aufbau's principle states that electrons fill low-energy atomic orbitals before they fill high-energy atomic orbitals. .. By following this rule, you can predict the electron configuration of an atom or ion.

There may be two electrons at the maximum of one orbit. Since the s subplane has only one orbit, it can hold up to two electrons. The p subplane has three orbitals, so it can hold up to six electrons. The d-subplane has five orbitals, so it can hold up to 10 electrons.

Which of the following is true when 1 M KCl is diluted to semi-molar KCl?

eimsori [14]

The solution before dilution and after dilution contains same number of moles, and water is added for dilution.

Option B

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Suppose before dilution, the solution contains x moles of KCl in Y liter of water. Now as the concentration got halved, then the solution contains x moles of KCl in 2Y kiters of solution. So the number of moles of KCl in the solution remained constant.

Again, as the solution is diluted to half of the concentration, water must have been added with the solution to make it dilute.

The equilibrium constant for the formation of ammonia from nitrogen and hydrogen is 1.6 × 102. what is the form of the equilibri

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer: The expression for equilibrium constant is $\frac{[NH_3]^2}{[H_2]^3[N_2]}$

Explanation: Equilibrium constant is the expression which relates the concentration of products and reactants preset at equilibrium at constant temperature. It is represented as $k_c$

For a general reaction:

$aA+bB\rightleftharpoons cC+dD$

The equilibrium constant is written as:

$k_c=\frac{[C]^c[D]^d}{[A]^a[B]^b}$

Chemical reaction for the formation of ammonia is:

$N_2+3H_3\rightleftharpoons 2NH_3$

$k_c=1.6\times 10^2$

Expression for $k_c$ is:

$k_c=\frac{[NH_3]^2}{[H_2]^3[N_2]}$

$1.6\times 10^2=\frac{[NH_3]^2}{[H_2]^3[N_2]}$

Solve the question that follows using the equation for the conversion of Celsius to Fahrenheit. F=95(C)+32 On February 9, 1934,

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

Buffalo, NY was colder on February 9, 1934

Explanation:

Temperature is the measure of thermal energy present in a given substance. It is a physical property of a matter which can be measured on the Celsius scale (°C), Fahrenheit scale (°F), and Kelvin scale (K).

<u>To convert Celsius (°C) to Fahrenheit (°F), we use the equation:</u>

°F = 9/5 (°C) + 32

Given: On February 9, 1934,

Temperature in Buffalo, NY: T₁ = (- 29) °C

Temperature in Anchorage, AL: T₂ = 19 °F

<u>To convert T₁ from °C to °F:</u>

9/5 (- 29 °C) + 32 = (- 52.2) + 32 = (- 20.2) °F

So,

Temperature in Buffalo, NY: T₁ = (- 20.2) °F

Temperature in Anchorage, AL: T₂ = 19 °F

⇒ T₁ < T₂

<u>Therefore, Buffalo, NY was colder on February 9, 1934.</u>

Which statements are correct regarding the Law of Conservation of Matter and Energy?

Elden [556K]

Answer:

Matter or energy can change from one form to the other

Explanation:

The law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can only be transformed i.e. changed from one form to another. For example, mechanical energy can be changed to electrical energy.

Likewise, the law of conservation of mass/matter states that matter can not be destroyed or created but can change via physical or chemical means to conserve it. For example, matter can change from liquid state to gaseous state.

From the above two laws, it can be said that "matter or energy can change from one form to the other".
