Answer:

1) B

2) D

3) D

Explanation:

Quantum atomic theory was introduced in order to explain the behavior of subatomic particles, which could not be explained using classical physics and dynamics. Many scientists contributed to this, one of them being Heisenberg, who introduced the principle of uncertainty, stating that we can not determine the exact location and direction of motion of electron, and that there are regions of an atom in which the electrons most likely reside. These regions are called the orbitals.

Each atom consists of several energy levels (shells), depending on the number of electrons it has. They are distributed in these levels around the nucleus. Further, these levels are from the nucleus, higher the energy level is. Each shell consists of subshells, which consist of several orbitals, Each orbital has two electrons. So:

-s subshell has 1 orbital, or 1 • 2 = 2 electrons

-p subshell has 3 orbitals, or 3 • 2 = 6 electrons

-d subshell has 5 orbitals, or 5 • 2 = 10 electrons

-f subshell has 7 orbitals, or 7 • 2 = 14 electrons

etc.

When writing abbreviated or condensed electronic configuration we look up to the previous noble gas. This is used to avoid confusion and errors when writing configuration for atoms with a lot of energy levels and orbitals. We use noble gases because they are stable, inert or unreactive because their energy levels are completely filled, so we can use them as a basis on which we add excess electrons from the given atom.

What is the hydronium ion concentration of a 0.100 M acetic acid solution with Ka = 1.8 × 10-5? The equation for the dissociatio
evablogger [386]

Answer:

1.3×10⁻³ M

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, given the dissociation reaction of acetic acid:

CH_3CO_2H(aq) + H_2O(l) \rightleftharpoons H_3O^+(aq) + CH_3CO_2^-(aq)

We can write the law of mass action for it:

Ka=\frac{[H_3O^+][CH_3CO_2^-]}{[CH_3CO_2H]}

Of course, excluding the water as heterogeneous substances are not included. Then, in terms of the change x due to the dissociation extent, we are able to rewrite it as shown below:

1.8x10^{-5}=\frac{x*x}{0.100-x}

Thus, via the quadratic equation or solve, we obtain the following solutions:

x_1=-0.00135M\\x_2=0.00133M

Obviously, the solution is 0.00133M which match with the hydronium concentration, thus, answer is: 1.3×10⁻³ M in scientific notation.

Regards.

How well did tossing the pennies simulate half lives?
SSSSS [86.1K]
Its a 50% chance that approx 1/2 of the pennies will land on tails. The next toss will result the same. and so on and so on. showing how a reaction would slowly eliminate 1/2 of the remaining lives per reaction, until nothing is left. I think it is a good stimulation.

What is the atomic number of an atom that has 20 protons and 20 neutrons
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

20

Explanation:

Hi there!

We need to find the atomic number of an atom that has 20 protons and 20 neutrons

the atomic number of an atom is equivalent to the amount of protons an atom has, as the number of protons determines what element an atom is.

Since the atom has 20 protons, the atomic number of the said atom is <u>20</u>

Hope this helps!
