The atomic nucleus can experience decay into 2 particles or more due to the instability of its atomic nucleus.
Usually radioactive elements have an unstable atomic nucleus.
General formulas used in decay:
T = duration of decay
t 1/2 = half-life
N₀ = the number of initial radioactive atoms
Nt = the number of radioactive atoms left after decaying during T time
Nt=25 g
No=100 g
t1/2=5770 years
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
If we look at the electron configuration closely, we will discover that the element must have had a ground state electron configuration of 2,4.
This is because, the innermost shell usually holds two electrons while the outer shells hold eight electrons each. The four electrons must be accommodated in the second shell in the ground state configuration of the compound.
However, when the atom is excited, one electron from this shell may move to the third shell to give the excited state configuration 2-3-1 as shown in the question.
Answer:
Charge= -2.
Gains two electron into the 4p^4 to become 4p^6.
Explanation:
The element in the periodic table/chart that matches with the valence electron configuration is Selenium with full electron configuration of [Ar] 3d^10 4s^2 4P^4 which is a non-metal that is found in group 4 of the periodic table/chart.
Selenium can receive 2 more electrons on the 4p^4 to give a -2(minus 2) ion that is Se^2-.
Selenium can also loose 2 electron from 4s^2 to give a +2 ion that is Se^2+.
Selenium can also loose 2 electrons from 4s^2 and 2 electrons from 4p^4 to form Se^4+.
Selenium can also loose 2 electrons from 4s^2 and 4 electrons from 4p^4 to form Se^6+.
Thus, in order to form a monatomic ion with a charge(we will be making use of the most stable one). Thus, it will gain two more electron since this is easier to become 4s^2 4p^6.
