Chromium is a transition metal and it has 24 electrons and here is the orbital diagram. If we're going to make this short hand and make the electron configurationfor this we would make this 1s2, 2s2, 2p6, 3s2, 3p6, 4s2, 3d4 okay from now on every time you see 3d4 you're going to change it, we do not like 3d4.

If you mean the electron configuration for Chromium, then the answer would be 2-8-13-1. It has 4 shells due to it being in period 4 of the periodic table.

When Niels Bohr refined the model of an atom,what new idea did he include?

pshichka [43]

Answer:

Niels Bohr, refined the model of an atom by proposing a quantized shell structure atomic model in order to describe how the electrons are able to maintain stable orbits around the nucleus

Based on the predictions of classical mechanics the electron motion of the Rutherford model was unstable as the electrons where expected to have lost some energy during motion and thus having to come rest in the nucleus

According to the modification by Neils Bohr in 1913, electrons move in shells or orbits of fixed energy and emission of electromagnetic radiation takes place only when electrons changes the orbit in which they move

The high concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere of Mars inhibits infrared radiation from escaping and keeps the

Zarrin [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Mars atmosphere contains mainly carbon iv oxide, but the greenhouse effect as subdued as there is so little CO2 overall.

Venus as a planet contains 96.5% of carbon iv oxide. it doesn't contain water which can trap the CO2 as we have on earth where the oceans are able to trap the CO2 present and subdue the greenhouse effect. This inability to trap CO2 in Venus prevents infrared rays from escaping and with the fact the Venus is closer to the sun than earth and mars, its surface it extremely hot.

Ag2S + Al(s) = Al2S3 + Ag(s) (unbalanced)

Dovator [93]

Answer:

1. 0.97 V

2. $Al_(_s_)/Al^+^3~_(_a_q_)~//~Ag^+~_(_a_q_)/Ag_(_s_)$

Explanation:

In this case, we can start with the half-reactions:

$Ag^+~_(_a_q_)->~Ag_(_s_)$

$Al_(_s_)~->~Al^+^3~_(_a_q_)$

With this in mind we can add the electrons:

$Ag^+~_(_a_q_)+~e^-~->~Ag_(_s_)$ Reduction

$Al_(_s_)~->~Al^+^3~_(_a_q_)+~3e^-~$ Oxidation

The reduction potential values for each half-reaction are:

$Ag_2S~+~e^-~->~Ag_(_s_)~+~S^-^2~_(_a_q_)$ - 0.69 V

$Al^+^3~_(_a_q_)+~2e^-~->~Al_(_s_)$ -1.66 V

In the aluminum half-reaction, we have an oxidation reaction, therefore we have to flip the reduction potential value:

$Al_(_s_)~->~Al^+^3~+~2e^-~$ +1.66 V

Finally, to calculate the overall potential we have to add the two values:

1.66 V - 0.69 V = 0.97 V

For the second question, we have to keep in mind that in the cell notation we put the anode (the oxidation half-reaction) in the left and the cathode (the reduction half-reaction) in the right. Additionally, we have to use "//" for the salt bridge, therefore:

$Al_(_s_)/Al^+^3~_(_a_q_)~//~Ag^+~_(_a_q_)/~Ag_(_s_)$
