Missing question:
(a) 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s1
(b) 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2
(c) 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p1
(d) 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p4
(e) 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p5
Answer is: a) 1s²2s²2p⁶3s¹ (sodium).
Sodium have the largest second ionization energy, because when he lost one electron(first ionization energy), he have stable electron configuration of noble gas neon (1s²2s²2p⁶), so sodium do not need to lost second electron, because he will have unstable electron configuration.
Answer:the mass of the gases and ash should be equal the mass of the initial stack of newspapers, there are equal number of atoms on both sides
Explanation:no matter what form the newspaper would take the mass stays the same because all you did is burn it, conserve means that each atom's mass will stay the same no matter what.
Statement D is the correct option as the solution will have pH of 3. It has an H3O+ ion concentration of 1 ×
mol/L and is acidic.
Explanation:
It is given in question that solution must have pH of 3. The value if being less than 7 shows that solution is acidic. The pH value of 3 indicates that given solution is highly acidic and has strong acid. Strong acid gets fully dissociated into 
ions.
pH of the solution is calculated as:
pH = -log10[
]
the concentration or molarity of the hydronium ion is given as moles/litre
concentration of hydronium ion in the solution is 1 X
moles/litre
putting the values in the equation:
pH = - log10( 1 X
)
pH = 3 (acidic)
Thus it can be concluded that D option is the right answer.
Answer:
The new volume will be
0.7 L
Explanation:
This is an example of Charles' law, sometimes called the temperature-volume law. It states that the volume of a gas is directly proportional to the Kelvin temperature, while pressure and amount are held constant.
Percent yield is 23.11 % when 162.8 g of CO2 are formed from the reaction of excess amount of C8H18 and with 218.0 grams of O2.
Explanation:
Balanced equation for the chemical reaction:
2C8H18 + 25O2 → 16CO2 + 18H2O
data given:
CO2 formed (actual yield) = 162.8 grams
mass of oxygen = 218 grams
16 moles of CO2 formed when 5 moles of oxygen reacted
3.6 moles of CO2 formed when 6.8 moles of oxygen reacted.
In the reaction 16 moles of CO2 will have 44.01 x 16
theoretical yield of CO2 = 704.16 grams
percent yield =
x100
putting the values in the above equation
percent yield =
x 100
= 0.23 x 100
= 23.11 %
Percent yield is 23.11 %.
