How many electrons does a co atom have in its 3d subshell?

Chemistry

Co is the symbol for element cobalt.  Atomic number of Co is 27.
1st shell has s orbital and can hold up to 2 electrons.
2nd shell has s and p orbital and can hold upto 8 electrons 
3rd shell has s, p and d orbital and can hold upto 18 electrons 
In Co electronic configuration upto p orbital in 3rd energy shell is
1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶
After 3p orbital, electrons start filling in the s orbital in 4th energy shell as 4s orbital has lower energy than 3d therefore it fills 4s before 3d, after it fills 2 electrons in 4s, remaining electrons fill 3d orbital 

1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s² 3d⁷
in the 3d subshell there are 7 electrons

Serga [27]

Answer:

37.14 %

Explanation:

Using the equation, mass, M = D1 * V1

= D2 * V2

Where,

D1 = density of the liquid Nitrogen

D2 = density of gaseous Nitrogen

V1 = volume of the liquid Nitrogen

V2 = volume of the gaseous Nitrogen

Calculating V2,

0.808 * 185 = 1.15 * V2

Volume of Nitrogen after expansion = 129.98 m3.

Volume = L * b * h

= 10 * 10 * 3.5

Volume of the room = 350 m3.

Fraction of air = volume of Nitrogen after expansion/volume of the room * 100

= 129.98/350 *100

= 37.14 %

Alloy: alloy, metallic substance composed of two or more elements, as either a compound or a solution. The components of alloys are ordinarily themselves metals, though carbon, a nonmetal, is an essential constituent of steel. ... See also amalgam; ferroalloy; intermetallic compound


Ceramic: A ceramic is any of the various hard, brittle, heat-resistant and corrosion-resistant materials made by shaping and then firing an inorganic, nonmetallic material, such as clay, at a high temperature. Common examples are earthenware, porcelain, and brick.


Synthetic polymer: Synthetic polymers are derived from petroleum oil, and made by scientists and engineers. Examples of synthetic polymers include nylon, polyethylene, polyester, Teflon, and epoxy. ... Vulcanized rubber is a synthetic (man-made) polymer, while pectin is an example of a natural polymer
