musickatia [10]2 years ago
6 0

For 7A(17) :

Electronic configuration ns^2 np^5

So, there are 5 unpaired electrons present in group 7A(17).

<h3>What are Unpaired Electrons?</h3>
  • An unpaired electron is an electron that doesn't form part of an electron pair when it occupies an atom's orbital in chemistry.
  • Each of an atom's three atomic orbitals, designated by the quantum numbers n, l, and m, has the capacity to hold a pair of two electrons with opposing spins.
  • Unpaired electrons are extremely uncommon in chemistry because an object carrying an unpaired electron is typically quite reactive. This is because the production of electron pairs, whether in the form of a chemical bond or as a lone pair, is frequently energetically advantageous.
  • They play a crucial role in describing reaction pathways even though they normally only appear momentarily during a reaction on a thing called a radical in organic chemistry.

Which term is defined as the change in the direction of light when it goes from one medium into a different medium?
vovikov84 [41]
The term defined as the change in direction of light when it goes from one medium into a different medium is refraction.

Refraction is the change of direction on the propagation of a beam of light when it passes from a medium to other; this only happens when the light travels at different speeds in both media.

When a beam of light that travels in the air incedes in a slab of glass, part of the beam is reflected (bounces) and part is refracted (it penetrates in the glass and changes the angle).


Also,due to the different speeds of light in air and water, when a beam of light passes from air to water, it refracts.

Answer : The balanced chemical equation will be:

(i) 2K+H_2SO_4\rightarrow K_2SO_4+H_2

(ii) Mg(OH)_2+Zn\rightarrow Zn(OH)_2+Mg

Explanation :

Balanced chemical equation : It is defined as the equation in which total number of individual atoms on the reactant side is equal to the total number of individual atoms on product side.

Part (i):

The balanced chemical equation will be:

2K+H_2SO_4\rightarrow K_2SO_4+H_2

This reaction is a single displacement reaction in which most reactive element (potassium) displaces the least reactive element (hydrogen) form their solution.

Part (ii):

The balanced chemical equation will be:

Mg(OH)_2+Zn\rightarrow Zn(OH)_2+Mg

This reaction is a single displacement reaction in which most reactive element (zinc) displaces the least reactive element (magnesium) form their solution.
