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.

Write a Lewis structure for each atom or ion. Draw the particle by placing atoms on the grid and connecting them with bonds. Inc

andrew11 [14]

Answer:

The Lewis structure to this question can be described as follows:

Explanation:

Structure of Lewis for $S^{2-}$ :

The maximum number of electrons from valence in $S^{2-}$ is 8 (6 from S as well as 2 from negative change).

The valence electrons in the Lewis structure are placed on four sides of the atom.

Thus the structure of Lewis for $S^{2-}$ is as follows:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc} &. .&\\: &S&:\\&. .&\end{array}\right] ^{2-}$

Lewis Mg Structure:

Complete valence electrons are 2 in Mg.

The Lewis structure for Mg, therefore, is as follows:

$\ . \\ Mg\\ \ .$

The Lewis structure for $Mg^{2+}$

The maximum valence of electrons $Mg^{2+}$ in is= 0.

Thus, the structure for $Mg^{2+}$ is as follows:

$Mg^{2+}$

Lewis structure for P :

The maximum number of valence electrons in P is = 5.

Thus, the structure for P is=

$\ \ \ . \\ : P \ : \\$

I put my answer as 31 C but it was wrong?

aniked [119]

Explanation:

It's asking for the temperature of the warm water when the probe was moved in, rather than the temperature it measured. In this case I'd probably choose 33 degrees Celsius.
