Answer: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d10 4p6 5s2 4d10 5p6 6s2 4f1

How To Find:

All you have do is

  1. List all the orbitals in the increasing order of their energies
  2. Fill them with appropriate number of electrons.(for eg: 1s orbital has max. 2 electrons , 2p orbitals has maximum 6 electrons....)
  3. Since the atomic number of Lanthanum is 57 , ensure you have that much electrons in these orbitals.

Balance the redox reaction Al(s) + MnO4^- (aq) --> MnO2 (s) + Al(OH)4^- (aq) in aqueous basic solution
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

Al + MnO4- + 2H2O → Al(OH)4- + MnO2

Explanation:

First of all, we out down the skeleton equation;

Al + MnO4- → MnO2 + Al(OH)4-

Secondly, we write the oxidation and reduction equation in basic medium;

Oxidation half equation:Al + 4H2O + 4OH- → Al(OH)4- + 4H2O + 3e-

Reduction half equation:MnO4- + 4H2O + 3e- → MnO2 + 2H2O + 4OH-

Thirdly, we add the two half reactions together to obtain:

Al + MnO4- + 8H2O + 4OH- + 3e- → Al(OH)4- + MnO2 + 6H2O + 3e- + 4OH-

Lastly, cancel out species that occur on both sides of the reaction equation;

Al + MnO4- + 8H2O→ Al(OH)4- + MnO2 + 6H2O

The simplified equation now becomes;

Al + MnO4- + 2H2O → Al(OH)4- + MnO2

Explain why the quantum number set (2, 2, -1, -½) is not possible for an electron in an atom.
rosijanka [135]

Answer is: it is not possible, because orbital (azimunthal) quantum number cannot be 2.

The principal quantum number (n) is one of four quantum numbers which are assigned to each electron in an atom to describe that electron's state.

For principal quantum number n=2:

1) azimuthal quantum number (l) can be l = 0...n-1:

l = 0, 1.  

The azimuthal quantum number determines its orbital angular momentum and describes the shape of the orbital.  

2) magnetic quantum number (ml) can be ml = -l...+l.

ml = -1, 0, +1.

Magnetic quantum number specify orientation of electrons in magnetic field and number of electron states (orbitals) in subshells.

3) the spin quantum number (ms), is the spin of the electron.

ms = +1/2, -1/2.

Having dimples is a dominant trait represented by the allele "D". If Carlos has dimples, which of the following could represent
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

DD or Dd

Explanation:

Having dimples is the dominant trait which means if he is heterozygous, the dominant trait will still show. So it can be homozygous dominant or heterozygous.
