When was copper discovered?

Vesna [10]

Answer:

9000 BC

Explanation:

Although various copper tools and decorative items dating back as early as 9000 BCE have been discovered, archaeological evidence suggests that it was the early Mesopotamians who, around 5000 to 6000 years ago, were the first to fully harness the ability to extract and work with copper.

Which type of bonding involves the complete transfer of a valence electron from a less electronegative atom to a more electroneg

Ivan

Answer:

Ionic or electrovalent bonds

Explanation:

Ionic or electrovalent bonds are interatomic or intramolecular bonds which are formed between two kinds of atoms having a large electronegativity difference usually 2.1.

Electronegativity is the property that combines the ability of an atom to gain or lose electrons. It is expressed as the tendency with which atoms of elements attracts valence electrons in a chemical bond.

In this bond type, a metal transfers its electrons to a more electronegative atom which is a non-metal.

The quantum numbers for the last electron placed in three elements are listed below. Which of these is(are) NOT correct? Er (4 3

UNO [17]

Answer:

The three elements Erbium, Thallium and Osmium have incorrect quantum numbers for the last electron placed.

Explanation:

The 4 quantum numbers are (n,l,ml,ms):

n (Principal quantum number): it is the number of the shell (level) where the electron is placed.
l (Angular momentum quantum number or Secondary): it represents the sublevel where the electron is placed. There are 4 subleves: s, p d and f so secondary quantum number can take the number 0 (s), 1 (p), 2 (d) or 3 (f) depending on which sublevel the electron is placed.
ml (Magnetic quantum number): it represents the spatial orientation of the electron in respect of the sublevel the electron is placed. For example: if the electron occupies the s sublevel the magnetic number will be 0, if the electron occupies the p sublevel the magnetic number could be -1,0,1, if the electron occupies the d sublevel the magnetic number could be -2,-1,0,1,2 and if the electron occupies the f sublevel the magnetic number could be -3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3. You can see this in the attachment related to the correct sublevel for the example.

ms (Spin quantum number): this number represents the possible rotation of the electron so it could be 1/2 (which is represented by an up arrow) or -1/2 (represented by an down arrow).

Let's analyze the last electron of each element. You can see the attachment for better understanding. The last electron it is represented with orange color.

- Erbium:

This element has 68 electrons so following the Moeller's Diagram to fill the the electronic configuration, we found that the last electron of Erbium it is in the 4th level (shell), in the f sublevel. As Erbium has 12 electrons in the f sublevel, it is necessary to follow the Hund's rule (electrons must be placed singly in every sublevel before place a parallel electron) to placed correctly all of them. Finally, the last electron of Erbium stays in the middle of the sublevel and it is represented by a down arrow so the correct quantum numbers in the Erbium element are (4,3,1,-1/2).

- Thallium:

This element has 81 electrons and following the Moeller's Diagram, we found that it last electron it is in the 6th level, in the p sublevel. As Thallium has 1 electron in the p sublevel, it is placed singly in the sublevel. So the last electron of Thallium it is represented by an up arrow so the correct quantum numbers in the Thallium element are (6,1,-1,1/2).

- Osmium:

Osmium has 76 electrons and following the steps that we did with we the other elements, we noticed that its last electron it is in the 5th level, in the d sublevel. Following the Hund's rule the last electron of Osmium has a magnetic quantum number of -2 and its spin quantum number is -1/2, so the quantum numbers in the Osmium element are (5,2,-2,-1/2).

Note:

- Remember that the s sublevel has place for 2 electrons, the p sublevel has place for 6 electrons, the d sublevel has place for 10 electrons and the f sublevel has place for 14 electrons.
