The elements in which electrons are progressively filled in 4f-orbital are called lanthanoids.

There are 15 metallic chemical elements called lanthanoids.

Those elements are with atomic numbers from 57 to 71.

Lanthanoids belong to f-block elements because of the filling of the 4f-orbitals.

One of the lanthanoids, lutetium (chemical symbol Lu) has 14 electrons if 4f orbitals.

Electron configuration of lutetium: [Xe] 4f14 5d1 6s2

f-orbitals are similar to the d orbital, but cut in half (eight lobes instead of four).

Lanthanoids are used not as materials in catalysts, alloys, lasers and cathode-ray tubes.

What is the molar mass of sulfur trioxide?

tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

80.07 g/mol

Explanation:

Sulfur's g/mol = 32.07

Oxygen's g/mol = 16.00

32.07 + 16.00(3) = 80.07 g/mol

Is MgS ionic or covalent

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

Ionic

Explanation:

Mg has 2 electron in it's outermost orbit, by donating this two electron to Sulfur it get stable mg 2+ electronic configuration while sulfur has 6 electron in it's outermost shell ,so sulfur accept this 2 electron and complete it's octet and become s2–.

An atom has radius of 227 pm and crystallizes in a body-centered cubic unit cell. What is the volume of the unit cell

sdas [7]

We will see that the volume of the unit cell is 144,070,699.06 pm^3

<h3>How to get the volume of a body-centered cubic unit cell?</h3>

In a body-centered cubic unit cell, the side length of the cube is given as:

$S = \frac{4}{\sqrt{3} } *R$

Where R is the radius of the atom.

And the volume of a cube is the side length cubed, then we can see that the volume of our cube will be:

$V = S^3 = (\frac{4}{\sqrt{3} }*227pm)^3$

Solving that we get:

$V = (\frac{4}{\sqrt{3} }*227pm)^3 = 144,070,699.06pm^3$

This is the approximated volume of the unit cell.

Which of the following would have the slowest rate of diffusion at a given temperature

MrMuchimi

Chlorine will have the slowest rate of diffusion because it has the highest relative molecular mass of 71 followed by O₂ with 32, then Neon 20 then He with 2

The rate of diffusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its relative molecular mass.
