Answer:

2 only

Explanation:

Electrons are filled in atoms according to the Aufbau principle. Electrons are filled into lower energy orbital before the filling of higher energy orbitals and this sequence must be followed in filling electron orbitals.

The order of arrangement of energy levels may be shown as follows; 1s 2s 2p 3s 3p 4s 3d 4p 5s 4d 5p 6s 4f 5d 6p 7s 5f 6d 7p. This implies that 4f>6s, hence 6s is filled before 4f.

Also, the 6p level > 5d level hence this is the correct option. You must fill the 5d level before you feel the 6p level.

If you knew the number of valence electrons in a nonmetal atom how would you determine the valence of the element. (Ignore hydro
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

The possible valances can be determined by electron configuration and electron negativity

Good Luck even though this was asked 2 weeks ago

Explanation:

All atoms strive for stability. The optima electron configuration is the electron configuration of the VIII A family or inert gases.

Look at the electron configuration of the nonmetal and how many more electrons the nonmetal needs to achieve the stable electron configuration of the inert gases. Non metals tend to be negative in nature and gain electrons. ( They are oxidizing agents)

For example Florine atomic number 9 needs one more electron to reach a valance number of 8 electrons to equal Neon atomic number 10. Hence Flowrine has a valance of -1

Oxygen atomic number 8 needs two more electrons to reach a valance number of 8 electrons to equal Neon atomic number 10. Hence Oxygen has a valance charge of -2.

Non metals with a low electron negativity will lose electrons when reacting with another non metal that has a higher electron negativity. When the non metal forms an ion it is necessary to look at the electron structure to determine how many electrons the element can lose to gain stability.

For example Chlorine which is normally -1 like Florine when it combines with oxygen can be +1, +3, + 5 or +7. It can lose its one unpaired electron, or combinations of the unpaired electron and sets of the three pairs of electrons.

Calculate the ph of a solution at 25. 0 °C that contains 2. 95 × 10^-12 m hydronium ions.
Makovka662 [10]

The pH of a solution at 25. 0 °C that contains 2. 95 × 10^-12 m hydronium ions is 13.5.

<h3>What is pH? </h3>

pH is defined as the concentration of the hydrogen bond which is released or gained by the species in the solution which depicts the acidity and basicity of the solution.

<h3>What is pOH? </h3>

pOH is defined as the concentration of the hydronium ion present in solution.

pOH value is inversely proportional to the value of pH.

pH value increases, pOH value decreases and vice versa.

Given,

Total H+ ions = 2.95 ×10^(-12)M

<h3>Calculation of pH</h3>

pH = -log[H+]

By substituting the value of H+ ion in given equation

= log(2.95× 10^(-12) )

= 13.5

Thus we find that the pH of a solution at 25. 0 °C that contains 2. 95 × 10^-12 m hydronium ions is 13.5.

Wet steam at 1100 kPa expands at constant enthalpy (as in a throttling process) to 101.33 kPa, where its temperature is 105°C. W
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

There are 3 steps of this problem.

Explanation:

Step 1.

Wet steam at 1100 kPa expands at constant enthalpy to 101.33 kPa, where its temperature is 105°C.

Step 2.

Enthalpy of saturated liquid Haq = 781.124 J/g

Enthalpy of saturated vapour Hvap = 2779.7 J/g

Enthalpy of steam at 101.33 kPa and 105°C is H2= 2686.1 J/g

Step 3.

In constant enthalpy process, H1=H2 which means inlet enthalpy is equal to outlet enthalpy

So, H1=H2

     H2= (1-x)Haq+XHvap.........1

    Putting the values in 1

    2686.1(J/g) = {(1-x)x 781.124(J/g)} + {X x 2779.7 (J/g)}

                        = 781.124 (J/g) - x781.124 (J/g) = x2779.7 (J/g)

1904.976 (J/g) = x1998.576 (J/g)

                     x = 1904.976 (J/g)/1998.576 (J/g)

                     x = 0.953

So, the quality of the wet steam is 0.953
