An element with the general electron configuration for its outermost electrons of ns2np1 would be in which element group?

1 answer:

8 0

Electron configuration is the electron distribution in the molecular and atomic orbital. An element with configuration ns²np¹ will be in the 3A group. Thus, option B is correct.

<h3>What is electronic configuration?</h3>

The electronic configuration has been the arrangement and distribution of the sub-atomic particle, an electron in the atomic shells.

The electronic configuration given is, ns²np¹. Here, there are three valence electrons in the outermost orbit. As it has been known that the number of the valence electron gives the number of the group.

Therefore, option B. 3A group or 13 group is the correct option.

Chloroform is an excellent solvent for extracting caffeine from water. The distribution coefficient, KD, (Cchloroform/Cwater) fo

Art [367]

The relative volumes of chloroform and water that should be used is 9:10

Concentration of solution in chloroform = $90$ ( moles of chloroform )

Concentration of solution in water = $10$ ( moles of water )

Dissociation constant at $25^oC$ ; $K_D = 10$

$K_D =$ Concentration of solution in chloroform / Concentration of solution in water

Meaning;

$K_D = \frac{\frac{mole\ of\ chloroform}{volume\ of\ chloroform} }{\frac{mole\ of\ water}{volume\ of\ water} }$

Since $90$ mole is present in chloroform and $10$ mole is present in water, Total mole of Caffeine present is $100$

Now, we substitute our given values into the equation

$10 = \frac{\frac{90}{volume\ of\ chloroform} }{\frac{10}{volume\ of\ water} }\\\\10 *\frac{10}{volume\ of\ water} = \frac{90}{volume\ of\ chloroform} \\\\\frac{100}{volume\ of\ water} = \frac{90}{volume\ of\ chloroform}\\\\\frac{volume\ of\ chloroform}{volume\ of\ water} = \frac{90}{100}\\\\ \frac{volume\ of\ chloroform}{volume\ of\ water} = \frac{9}{10}\\\\ \frac{volume\ of\ chloroform}{volume\ of\ water} = 9:10$

Therefore, the relative volumes of chloroform and water that should be used is 9:10

HNO3 is a Bronsted-Lowry acid. What will this substance form when it donates a proton?

Andreas93 [3]

The HNO3 is considered to be a Bronsted - Lowry acid, when this substance 'HNO3', will donate a proton, then it will form another substance. It will form two substances when the proton is donated in the water molecule. The two substances that will be formed is a nitrate iron and a hydronium ion.
