The electron configuration for Oxygen : [He] 2s²2p⁴
<h3>Further explanation</h3>Writing electron configurations starts from the lowest to the highest sub-shell energy level. There are 4 sub-shells in the shell of an atom, namely s, p, d, and f. The maximum number of electrons for each sub-shell is
• s: 2 electrons
• p: 6 electrons
• d: 10 electrons and
• f: 14 electrons
Charging electrons in the sub-shell uses the following sequence:
<em>1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹⁰, 4p⁶, 5s², 4d¹⁰, 5p⁶, 6s², etc. </em>
The element is Oxgen, with symbol O, and :
the atomic number=8=number of electron
the atomic mass=16
The electron configuration based on the number of electrons(for Oxygen=8), so the configuration :
or we can write with noble gas [He] 2s²2p⁴
Answer: 17) d.
18. c. The empirical formula of a compound can be twice the molecular formula.
Explanation:
Molecular formula is the chemical formula which depicts the actual number of atoms of each element present in the compound.
Empirical formula is the simplest chemical formula which depicts the whole number of atoms of each element present in the compound.
To calculate the molecular formula, we need to find the valency which is multiplied by each element to get the molecular formula.
The equation used to calculate the valency is:
The empirical mass can be calculated from empirical formula and molar mass must be known.
17. Thus the empirical formula of should be
18. The molecular formula will either be same as empirical formula or is a whole number multiple of empirical formula. Thus the empirical formula of a compound can never be twice the molecular formula.
