Answer:

Rb: [Kr] 5s

Step-by-step explanation:

Rb is element 37, the first element in Period 5.

It has one valence electron, so its valence electron configuration is 5s.

The noble gas configuration uses the symbol of the previous noble gas as a shortcut for the electron configurations of the inner electrons.

The preceding noble gas is Kr, so the electron configuration is Rb: [Kr] 5s.

weqwewe [10]

Answer:

Within a group trend

Explanation:

The atomic radius of atoms generally increases from top to bottom within a group trend. As the atomic number increases down a group, there is again an increase in the positive nuclear charge. As the atomic number increases within a period, the atomic radius decreases.

Why can you see a corona during a total solar eclipse?

Mumz [18]

Answer:

The corona shines only about half as brightly as the Moon and is normally not visible to the unaided eye, because its light is overwhelmed by the brilliance of the solar surface. During a total solar eclipse, however, the Moon blocks out the light from the photosphere, permitting eye observations of the corona.

If 17. 6 g of hcl are used to produce a 14. 5 l solution, what is the ph of the solution?.

kati45 [8]

This problem is providing us with the mass of hydrochloric acid and the volume of solution and asks for the pH of the resulting solution, which turns out to be 1.477.

<h3>pH calculations</h3>

In chemistry, one can calculate the pH of a solution by firstly obtaining its molarity as the division of the moles of solute by the liters of solution, so in this case for HCl we have:

$M=\frac{17.6g*\frac{1mol}{36.46g} }{14.5L} \\\\M=0.0333 M$

Next, due to the fact that hydrochloric acid is a strong acid, we realize its concentration is nearly the same to the released hydrogen ions to the solution upon ionization. Thereby, the resulting pH is:

$pH=-log(0.0333)\\\\pH=1.477$
