The aim is to use less space while demonstrating the distribution of electrons in shells

If you want to depict how an atom's electrons are scattered across its subshells, an orbital notation is more suited.

This is due to the fact that some atoms have unique electronic configurations that are not readily apparent from textual configurations.

<h3>How does electron configuration work?</h3>

The placement of electrons in orbitals surrounding an atomic nucleus is known as electronic configuration, also known as electronic structure or electron configuration.

<h3>What sort of electron arrangement would that look like?</h3>
  • For instance: You can see that oxygen contains 8 electrons on the periodic table.
  • These 8 electrons would fill in the following order: 1s, 2s, and finally 2p, according to the aforementioned fill order. O 1s22s22p4 would be oxygen's electron configuration.

Helen [10]

Melting is a process where a solid such as ice turns into liquid or water. The molecules of ice slowly moves and becomes unstable as they gain energy. As this energy builds up, kinetic energy increases and the intermolecular forces react because of this energy.Thank you for your question. Please don't hesitate to ask in Brainly your queries.

What is the volume of 8.7 * 10 ^ 23 molecules of chlorine gas (Cl 2 ) ?
Mariana [72]

Answer:

32.3 dm³

Explanation:

Data given:

no. of molecules of Cl₂ = 8.7 x 10²³

Volume of chlorine gas (Cl₂) = ?

Solution:

First we have to find number of moles

For this formula used

    no. of moles = no. of molecules / Avogadros number

    no. of moles = 8.7 x 10²³ / 6.022 x 10²³

    no. of moles = 1.44 moles

Now we have to find volume of the gas

for this formula used

                      no. of moles = volume of gas / molar volume

molar volume = 22.4 dm³/mol

Put values in above equation

                 1.44 moles = volume of Cl₂ gas / 22.4 dm³/mol

rearrange the above equation

                 volume of Cl₂ gas = 1.44 moles x 22.4 dm³/mol

                volume of Cl₂ gas =  32.3 dm³

If temperature is increased, the number of collisions per second <br> .
Hatshy [7]

Answer

If the temperature is increased , the number of collision per second increases.

Explanation

Temperature is proportional to the average kinetic energy of a sample of a gas according to the equation PV=n R T. An increased in temperature , increases the kinetic energy of the gas particles which in turn rises the velocity of the gas particles hitting the walls of the container. The more the number of particles the higher the collision rate and greater the pressure as long as the volume of container and the temperature are constant.
