State the number of electrons that must be lost by atoms of

Chemistry

<u>The number of electrons that must be lost by atoms of each given to achieve a stable electron configuration are as follows: </u>

  • Li has to lose 1 electron
  • Ca has to lose 2 electrons
  • Ga has to lose 13 electrons
  • Cs has to lose 1 electron
  • Ba has to lose 2 electrons.

<u>Explanation: </u>

It is known that the elements in the last group or we can stay the noble gases have the most stable electron configuration. So if any other element has to attain stable electron configuration, either they have to loose electrons to attain the electronic configuration similar to its closest noble gas element or they have to attain extra electron to reach the electronic configuration of its nearest noble gas element.

In this case, the question is stated to determine the number of electrons lost by the atoms to reach its stable electron configuration. Thus, the outermost shell electrons or the valence state electrons can be lost by the element to attain the electronic configuration of its nearest noble gas element.

So, the elements given in the question need to lose the electrons such that the electronic configuration of the element after losing of electrons will be equal to the electronic configuration of noble elements. This attainment of noble gas configuration by the elements will be achieving the stable electron configuration.

Research how different fossil fuels compare in terms of the amount of carbon dioxide released per kWh of energy. How much carbon
pshichka [43]

Answer:

About 19.64 pounds of carbon dioxide are produced from burning a gallon of gasoline. On the other hand, 22.38 pounds of carbon dioxide are produced from burning a gallon of diesel. So, different fossil fuels will give different amounts of carbon dioxide to be released.

please hurry! If 3.87g of powdered aluminum oxide is placed in a container containing 5.67g of water, what is the limiting react
VikaD [51]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of aluminium oxide = 3.87g

Mass of water = 5.67g

Unknown:

Limiting reactant = ?

Solution:

The limiting reactant is the reactant in short supply in a chemical reaction. We need to first write the chemical equation and convert the masses given to the number of moles.

Using the number of moles, we can ascertain the limiting reactants;

         Al₂O₃  + 3H₂O  →  2Al(OH)₃  

Number of moles;

            Number of moles = \frac{mass}{molar mass}

molar mass of Al₂O₃  = (2x27) + 3(16) = 102g/mole

    number of moles = \frac{3.87}{102}  = 0.04mole

   

molar mass of  H₂O = 2(1) + 16 = 18g/mole

    number of moles = \frac{5.67}{18}  = 0.32mole

From the reaction equation;

        1 mole of  Al₂O₃  reacted with 3 moles of H₂O

   0.04 mole of Al₂O₃ will react with 3 x 0.04 mole = 0.12 mole of H₂O

But we were given 0.32 mole of H₂O and this is in excess of amount required.

This shows that Al₂O₃ is the limiting reactant

According to the concept of the tragedy of the commons, what happens to shared resources over time?
Maslowich
I would believe the answer to this question is D. According to the concept of the tragedy of the commons, shared resources are used by more than one organism. Due to the large consumption of shared resources they start to be fewer and fewer in number and over time if we are not careful they will be depleted.
