The electronic configuration of the element located in the fourth row of group 5A is \boxed{\left[ {{\text{Ar}}}\right]3{d^{10}}4{s^2}4{p^3}} .

Further explanation:

The electronic configuration is the distribution of electrons of an atom in the atomic orbitals. There are two states for an electron: ground as well as the excited state. The configuration of the atom in the lowest possible energy levels is called the ground-state electronic configuration. When an electron jumps from the stable ground state to some higher level, that state is called the excited state, and the electronic configuration corresponding to this state is known as the excited-state half-filled configuration.

The filling of electrons in different energy levels or orbitals is done in accordance with the following three rules.

1. Aufbau principle: The principle states that the electrons are filled in various orbitals in the increasing order of their energies as follows:

1s

2. Hund’s rule: Electron pairing will not start until each orbital is singly occupied.

3. Pauli’s exclusion principle: According to this principle, all the four quantum numbers \left({n,\;l,\;{m_l},\;{m_s}}\right)  for any two electrons can never be the same. In an orbital, the spin of two electrons has to be different. If one electron has the clockwise spin, the other would have the anticlockwise spin and vice-versa.

Group 5A belongs to the pnictogen family. It includes elements like nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), arsenic (As), antimony (Sb), bismuth (Bi). The general electronic configuration of this group is  . The element that is present in the fourth row of this group is n{s^2}n{p^3}  arsenic (As), and its electronic configuration is  \left[{{\text{Ar}}}\right]3{d^{10}}4{s^2}4{p^3}  .

What is the energy of a photon with:<br> a wavelength of 827 nm? What type of radiation is it?
xeze [42]

Explanation:

Given parameters:

 Wavelength of photon  = 827nm  = 827  x 10⁻⁹m

Unknown:

Energy of the photon = ?

Type of radiation = ?

Solution:

The energy of a photon can be derived using the expression below:

      E = \frac{h c}{wavelength}

h is the Planck's constant = 6.63 x 10⁻³⁴m²kg/s

c is the speed of light = 3 x 10⁸m/s

Insert the parameters and solve;

      E  = \frac{6.63 x 10^{-34} x 3 x 10^{8}  }{827x 10^{-9} }  

       E = 2.4 x 10⁻¹⁹J

Type of radiation:

Near infrared radiation

If 3.50 moles of sodium chloride is added to your food, how many grams is added?
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

204.8g

Explanation:

The number of moles of a substance is related to its mass and molecular mass as follows:

mole (n) = mass (m) ÷ molar mass (MM)

According to this question, 3.50 moles of sodium chloride (NaCl) is added to a food.

Molar mass of NaCl = 23 + 35.5

= 58.5g/mol

Using mole = mass/molar mass

Mass = molar mass × mole

Mass = 58.5g/mol × 3.5mol

Mass = 204.75

Mass = 204.8grams.

Therefore, 204.8grams of NaCl or common salt was added to the food.

3 Cells use oxygen to release energy during
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

Explanation: Cellular respiration is the process that occurs in the mitochondria of organisms (animals and plants) to break down sugar in the presence of oxygen to release energy in the form of ATP. This process releases carbon dioxide and water as waste products.
