The symbol for xenon (xe) would be a part of the noble gas notation for the element cesium.

For writing the electronic configuration of any element by using the preceding noble gas configuration, we simply use the symbols of noble gas belongs to the previous period of that particular elements. We can't use the symbol of noble gas of same period from which the element belong.

A is the wrong option because the noble gas in the preceding period to the period from which antimony belongs is krypton.

The actual electronic configuration of antimony is as follow:

[Kr] 4d10 5s2 5p3

B is correct option because the noble gas in the preceding period to the period from which Cesium belongs is Xenon.

The actual electronic configuration of Cesium is as follow:

[Xe] 6s1

Thus, we concluded that the symbol for xenon (xe) would be a part of the noble gas notation for the element cesium.

Separation of mixture by gravity of sodium carbonat into calcium chloride

Natali5045456 [20]

By combining aqueous solutions of calcium chloride and sodium carbonate, a solid calcium carbonate is produced. The CaCO 3 is trapped by the paper which forms as a precipitate, but the NaCl passes through the filter paper with the water.

Explanation:

In gravity separation, a combination of two incompatible liquids can be separated by using a separating funnel. The operation is based on the variation within the density of the liquids. The heavier liquid that settles down is drained out first from the funnel into the beaker, and then the lighter liquid is drained out into another beaker.

Filtration is used to separate a substance from a mixture because one is insoluble and the other is soluble. By combining aqueous solutions of calcium chloride and sodium carbonate, solid calcium carbonate is produced.

CaCl 2 (aq) + Na 2 CO 3 (aq) → CaCO 3 (s) + 2NaCl(aq)

A filter paper is inserted in a funnel and the mixture may be poured through a funnel. The NaCl is passed through the filter paper with the water but CaCO3 is trapped by the paper which forms the precipitate.

The student collects the H2 (g) produced by the reaction and measures the volume

BARSIC [14]

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

The student collects the H2(g) produced by the reaction and measures its volume over water at 298 K after carefully equalizing the water levels inside and outside the gas-collection tube, as shown in the diagram below. The volume is measured to be 45.6mL . The atmospheric pressure in the lab is measured as 765 torr , and the equilibrium vapor pressure of water at 298 K is 24 torr .(i) The pressure inside the tube due to the H2(g)

Answer:

741 torr

Explanation:

From the question we can see that the atmospheric pressure in the lab is 765 torr.

The vapour pressure of water = 24 torr

From Dalton's law of partial pressure, we know that;

Total pressure = Pressure of the H2 + Partial pressure of water vapour

Therefore;

Pressure of H2 = Total pressure - Partial pressure of water vapour

Pressure of H2 = 765 torr - 24 torr = 741 torr

the quantity of antimony in an ore can be determined by an oxidation-reduction titration with an oxidizing agent. The ore is dis

Basile [38]

Answer:

BrO₃⁻(aq) + 3Sb³⁺(aq) + 6H⁺(aq) → Br⁻(aq) + 3Sb⁵⁺(aq) + 3H₂O(l)

Explanation:

At a redox equation, one substance is being oxidized (losing electrons), and the other is being reduced (gaining electrons). In the given reaction:

BrO₃⁻(aq) + Sb³⁺(aq) → Br⁻(aq) + Sb⁵⁺(aq)

When it's at an acidic solution, it must be ions H⁺ on the reactant, which will form water with the oxygen, so the complete reaction is:

BrO₃⁻(aq) + Sb³⁺(aq) + H⁺(aq) → Br⁻(aq) + Sb⁵⁺(aq) + H₂O(l)

As we can see, the antimony is being oxidized (go from +3 to +5), and the Bromo is being reduced. The oxidation number of brome in the reactant, knowing that the oxidation number of O is -2, is:

x + 3*(-2) = -1

x = +5

So, it's going from +5 to -1, and the half-reactions are:

BrO₃⁻(aq) + 6e⁻ → Br⁻(aq)

Sb³⁺(aq) → Sb⁵⁺(aq) + 2e⁻

The number of electrons must be the same, so the second equation must be multiplied by 3:

3Sb³⁺(aq) → 3Sb⁵⁺(aq) + 6e⁻

Thus, the equation will be:

BrO₃⁻(aq) + 3Sb³⁺(aq) + H⁺(aq) → Br⁻(aq) + 3Sb⁵⁺(aq) + H₂O(l)

Now, we verify the amount of the elements, which must be equal on both sides. So, we multiply H₂O by 3, and H⁺ by 6, and the balanced reaction will be:

BrO₃⁻(aq) + 3Sb³⁺(aq) + 6H⁺(aq) → Br⁻(aq) + 3Sb⁵⁺(aq) + 3H₂O(l)
