Answer:

O₈ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁴

Explanation:

An atom consist of electron, protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are present with in nucleus while the electrons are present out side the nucleus.

All these three subatomic particles construct an atom. A neutral atom have equal number of proton and electron. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other. For example if neutral atom has 6 protons than it must have 6 electrons. The sum of neutrons and protons is the mass number of an atom while the number of protons are number of electrons is the atomic number of an atom.

Electronic configuration for electrically neutral oxygen atom.

O₈ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁴

oxygen has six valance electrons 2s² 2p⁴. To complete the octet oxygen needed two more electrons that's why in chemical bonding oxygen accept the electrons.

A cube has a mass of 42 grams and a volume of 15 cubic centimeters. What is it’s density?
deff fn [24]

Answer:

2.8g/cm³

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of cube = 42g

Volume of cube  = 15cm³

Unknown:

Density of the cube  = ?

Solution:

Density is defined as the mass per unit volume of a substance. It is mathematically expressed as:

 Density  = \frac{mass}{volume}  

So;

 Density  = \frac{42}{15}   = 2.8g/cm³

15g of magnesium (II) oxide decomposes, find the number of oxygen particles produced at 100% yield.
erastova [34]

2.258625 *10²³ oxygen atoms will be produced.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Decomposition reaction is defined as the type of reaction where one single reactant breaks to produce more than one product only by means of heat or other external factor.

Formula of magnesium oxide = MgO.

The molecular mass of magnesium oxide = 24 +16= 40.

So in 40 grams of magnesium oxide, number of molecules is 6.023 * 10²³.

So in 15 grams of magnesium oxide,, number of molecules is 6.023 *1023 * 15/40 = 2.258625 *10²³.

From one molecule of magnesium oxide, one oxide atom will be produced.

So number of oxide atoms with 100% yeild = 2.258625 *10²³
