Answer:

D. Cr

Explanation:

In order to determine which atom has at least one electron in its d orbital, we have to write their theoretical electron configurations.

  • ₁₂Mg 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s²
  • ₁₉K 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s¹
  • ₁₆S 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁴
  • ₂₄Cr 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s² 3d⁴

Cr has 4 electrons in d orbitals. Cr belongs to the d-block in the periodic table.

The black, granular material that fills a dry cell in a common flashlight (between the carbon rod and the zinc shell) is mangane
mestny [16]

Answer: c. +4

Explanation:

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.  

Mn:25:1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d^{5}

Mn^{4+}:21:1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^63d^1

O:8:1s^22s^22p^4

O^{2-}:10:1s^22s^22p^6

Here manganese is having an oxidation state of +4 called as  cation and oxygen forms an anion with oxidation state of -2. Thus they combine and their oxidation states are exchanged to give Mn_2O_4 which written in simplest whole number ratios to give neutral MnO_2

While soils are an important part of the global carbon cycle, they are not a part of the nitrogen and sulfur cycles.
Vladimir79 [104]

The correct answer is - False.

The soils are part of most of the major cycles that take place on the Earth, mainly because they are in touch with the other spheres. The carbon dioxide, as well as the nitrogen and the sulfur cycles too, end up in the soil in more cases than not during their cycles. While some are formed in it and than released, like the sulfur, the carbon mostly gets in it though the roots of the plants, as well as the decomposing organisms, and the nitrogen ends up in the soil with the water.

The soil is one of the most important pieces in the cycles of most of the gases on Earth, and without it, some will not even be possible.

Which indicator most likely suggests that a chemical change is taking place? 1)change in size 2)change of color 3)change of stat
Tresset [83]

Out of the options, the best indicator is a color change since it is the only one that can't really be blamed on a physical change.  you will eventually notice that during qualitative labs and some quantitative labs, usually the thing that you are looking for is either color change or the production of a precipitate to indicate the presence of a chemical reaction

A coffee cup calorimeter will not be used to directly measure the enthalpy of magnesium combustion because
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

A coffee cup calorimeter is great for measuring heat flow in a solution, but it can't be used for reactions that involve gases since they would escape from the cup. The coffee cup calorimeter can't be used for high-temperature reactions, either, because they would melt the cup.
