Answer:

9 p-electrons

Explanation:

Phosphorus is a reactive chemical element that belongs to the group 15 and period 3 of the periodic table. It is a p-block element having atomic number 15.

The <u>electronic configuration of phosphorus in the ground state </u>is 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p³.

Since, <u>6 electrons are present in the 2p subshell and 3 electrons are present in the 3p subshell.</u>

<u>Therefore, there are total </u><u>9 p-electrons</u><u> in a phosphorus atom present in its ground state.</u>

A gas container has a volume of 446.9 with a temp of 14c. When the volume is decreased to 238.7l the new temp is what
swat32

Answer:

\frac{V _{1}}{T _{1}}  =  \frac{V _{2}}{T _{2} }  \\  \frac{446.9}{(14 + 273)}  =  \frac{238.7}{T _{2} } \\ {T _{2}} =  \frac{238.7 \times 287}{446.9}  \\ {T _{2}} = 153.3 \: kelvin \\  = 119.7  \degree \: c

Which salt is the most common found in ocean water?
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

Sodium chloride

Explanation:

There are several salts in seawater, but the most abundant is ordinary table salt or sodium chloride (NaCl). Sodium chloride, like other salts, dissolves in water into its ions, so this is really a question about which ions are present in the greatest concentration. Sodium chloride dissociates into Na+ and Cl- ions.

A container is filled with a mixture of gases:
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

The pressure of Cl2 is 1, 55 atm.

Explanation:

The sum of the partial pressures of the gases that make up a gaseous mixture is equal to the total pressure of said mixture, according to Dalton's law:

P total = P02 + P N2 + P Cl2

P Cl2= P total - P02 - P N2=3,30 atm-1,0 atm -0,75 atm=<em>1,55 atm</em>
