Answer:

electron configuration of carbon: 1s²2s²2p²

Explanation:

The electron configuration of atoms (or ions) is depicted based on the Aufbau principle according to which electrons are added to various orbitals such that the orbital with the lowest energy gets occupied first followed by the next higher orbital.

The energy ordering of orbitals from the lowest to the highest is:

1s < 2s < 2p < 3s < 3p < 4s  < 3d ....

s orbitals can accommodate a maximum of 2 electrons

p orbitals = 6 electrons

d orbitals = 10 electrons

Now, the atomic number of carbon = 6

Since it is neutral, the atomic number = number of electrons = 6

Based on the Aufbau principle the electron configuration of C would be

1s²2s²2p²

I think I have done a question like this before and i'm pretty sure your answer would be the 2nd one 1s22s22p4. I'm not 100% sure but try it at least.

Sholpan [36]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

When either pan is heated, energy is transferred via conduction. Conduction is the process by which heat is transferred through a material, the average position of the particles remaining the same.

When the pans are heated, the particles in each pan vibrate faster and transfer this energy rapidly to neighboring particles.

The pan with a thicker base has more particles in it than the pan with lighter weight base. Note that, The rate of heat transfer is inversely proportional to the thickness of the material in question. Hence, the thicker the base, the more the number of particles present and the longer the time it takes for the food to cook.
