Answer is: [Kr] 5s24d105p6.

1) [Xe] 6s²6p⁶ is not correct, because element with atomic number 62 (54 + 8) is samarium with electron configuration [Xe] 6s²4f⁶.

Xenon (Xe) is noble gas with atomic number 54, which means it has 54 protons and 54 electrons.

Electron configuration of xenon atom:

₅₄Xe 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 3d¹⁰ 4s² 4p⁶ 4d¹⁰ 5s² 5p⁶.

2) [Kr] 5s²5d⁸5p⁶ is not correct, because element with atomic number 52 (36 + 16) is tellurium.

Tellurium (Te) is an element with atomic number 52 (52 protons and 52 electrons), it is in group 16 (chalcogens) and period 5 (principal quantum number n = 5, which means it has 5 electrons shell) of Periodic table.

Electron configuration of tellurium atom:

₅₂Te 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 3d¹⁰ 4s² 4p⁶ 4d¹⁰ 5s² 5p⁴ or [Kr] 4d¹⁰5s²5p⁶.

Krypton is a chemical element with symbol Kr and atomic number 36, which means it has 36 protons and 36 electrons.

Electron configuration of krypton atom:

₃₆Kr 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 3d¹⁰ 4s² 4p⁶.

3) [Xe] 6s²5d¹⁰6p⁴ is not correct, because element with atomic number 70 (54 + 16) is ytterbium (Yb) with electron configuration [Xe] 6s²4f¹⁴.

4) [Kr] 5s²4d¹⁰5p⁶ is correct, because element with atomic number 54 (36 + 18) is krypton (Kr) with electron configuration 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 3d¹⁰ 4s² 4p⁶ or [Kr] 5s²4d¹⁰5p⁶.

Describe the sources of water pollution in hydrological cycle.

Bingel [31]

Explanation:

The hydrological cycle is the continuous cycling of water between land, open water surfaces and the sea. This cycle begins with evaporation, sunlight evaporates water from the surface of earth, next condensation happens, the water absorbed is now used to form clouds, after these clouds are filled to the maximum, precipitation happens, this can be in the form of rainfall and snow, this cycle finalizes when the precipitation of water runs off the land and back into water sources.

Sources of water pollution:

During precipitation: Smog can be gathered in the atmosphere, during precipitation this pollution can turn into acid rain.
During runoff: After acid rain hits the ground this polluted water can run into water sources (lakes, rivers, reservoirs).To some extent rivers are a self-renewing resource, if a small quantity of pollution discharges in it the river can return to a clean, unpolluted condition, unfortunately, if the pollution is too big the renewing won't be possible, another problem is even though rivers get cleaned the pollution moves to the seas. Lakes are even more vulnerable to pollution, the flushing effect in these water bodies is less evident than in rivers.

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!

10. Translate each of the following chemical equations into a sentence.

Fofino [41]

Answer:

a) $2ZnS(s)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow 2ZnO(s)+2SO_2(g)$

2 moles of Zinc sulphide in solid form reacts with 3 moles of Oxygen in gaseous form to give 2 moles of Zinc oxide in solid form and 2 moles of sulphur dioxide in gaseous form.

b) $CaH_2(s)+2H_2O(l)\rightarrow Ca(OH)_2 aq)+2H_2(g)$

1 mole of calcium hydride in solid form reacts with 2 moles of liquid water to give 1 mole of calcium hydroxide dissolved in water and 2 moles of hydrogen in gaseous form.

The chemical reactions are written by writing the chemical formula of the reactants on left side of the arrow followed by chemical formula of the products. The number of atoms of each element must be balanced to follow the law of conservation of mass.

Explain the meaning of the terms "saturated," "unsaturated," and "supersaturated"

dmitriy555 [2]

Saturated Solution: A solution with solute that dissolves until it is unable to dissolve anymore, leaving the undissolved substances at the bottom. Unsaturated Solution: A solution ( with less solute than the saturated solution )that completely dissolves, leaving no remaining substances. Supersaturated Solution.
