What is the valence electron configuration for the oxygen atom

Chemistry
1 answer:
Lana71 [14]3 years ago
8 0
Oxygen has six valence (outer-shell) electrons so therefore gains two more electrons to form the O-2 ion Its electron configuration is: 1s2 2s2 2p6 or Ne

How many nitrogen atoms are in 2.79 mo.of NH3
alexandr1967 [171]
1 mol of any particles has 6.02 * 10 ²³ particles.

If we look at 1 NH3 (1 mol NH3 or 1 molecule NH3), we can see that 1 molecule NH3 has 1 atom of N and 3 atoms of H; also 1 mole of NH3 has 1 mole of N atoms and 3 moles of H atoms.

So, 1 mol of NH3 has 1 mol of N atoms,
 and 2.79 mol NH3 have 2.79 mol of N atoms.

2.79 mol of N atoms* 6.02 * 10 ²³ N atoms/ 1 mol N atoms = 1.68*10²⁴ N-atoms 

 Answer is 1.68*10²⁴ N-atoms.

As you move upward, from level, in an energy pyramid, available energy ____.
svetlana [45]

The available energy decreases as one moves upward in an energy pyramid.

<h3>Energy pyramid</h3>

The energy pyramid represents a model of how energy is transferred from one trophic level to another in ecosystems.

Energy is transferred from producers to primary consumers, from primary to secondary consumers, from secondary to tertiary consumers, and so on.

Only about 10% of the available energy in one trophic level is transferred to the next with the remaining 90% being lost as heat to the environment.

Thus, as one moves up the energy pyramid, the available energy decreases. This is why organisms at the higher end of the energy pyramid have to devise an efficient way of extracting energy from their foods.

The decomposition of dinitrogen pentoxide, N2O5, to NO2 and O2 is a first-order reaction. At 60°C, the rate constant is 2.8 × 10
Ugo [173]

Answer:

The correct option is a.

Explanation:

2N_2O_5\rightarrow 4NO_2 + O_2

125 kPa

125kpa - 2x                            4x    x

Total pressure after reaction = 176 kPa

125 kPa - 2x + 4x + x = 176 kPa

x = 17

125 kpa - 2x = 125 kPa - 2(17) = 91 kPa

Initial pressure of the dinitrogen pentoxide ,(at t=0) =P_o= 125 kPa

Final pressure of the dinitrogen pentoxide, (at t = t) = P = 91 kPa

The rate constant is = k = 2.8\times 10^{-3} min^{-1}

t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{P_o}{P}

t=\frac{2.303}{2.8\times 10^{-3} min^{-1}}\log\frac{125 kPa}{91 kPa}

t=113.3969 minutes\approx 113 minutes

It will take 113 minutes for the total pressure to reach 176 kPa.
