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.

The molar mass of an element is the mass of one
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

  • <em>The molar mass of an element is the mass of </em><u>one mole of atoms of the element.</u>

Explanation:

<em>The molar mass of an element </em>is its atomic mass, i.e.  the mass in grams of one mole of atoms of the element.

Remember 1 mol is approximately 6.022 × 10²³.

So, 1 mol of atoms is 6.022 × 10²³ atoms.

The molar mass is an average: it is the weighted average mass of the natural isotopes of the element, taking into account their relative abundance.

For example, the molar mass or atomic mass of carbon is 12,0107 g/mol, instead of 12.0000, becasue carbon exists in several forms (isotopes), and so the weighted average is not a whole number.

Lemonade is an example of a compound because the particles retain their original chemical properties and identity.
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Compounds are chemically combined

lemonade is not

If the squeezed lemonade is made by squeezing lemons to extract the juice and mixing it with water and sugar, it would be a homogenous mixture.

If it contains a pulp than it would be heterogeneous
