Anton [14]3 years ago
6 0

Calcium has electrons in more energy levels than magnesium. The number of electron in calcium atom is 20 which means 4 energy levels. (2 electron in first shell+ 8 electron in second shell+8 electron in third shell+ 2 electron in fourth shell). While number of electron in magnesium atom is 12 which means 3 energy levels. (2 electron in first shell+ 8 electron in second shell+ 2 electron in third shell). Also the Calcium third energy level contains more electron than magnesium.

if .40 L if water is added to the volume of cup 3, what would be the new molarity of a 2 M solution of kool-aid
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

0.7692 M ≅ 0.77 M.

Explanation:

  • It is known that the no. of millimoles of a solution before dilution is equal to the no. of millimoles of the solution after the dilution.
  • It can be expressed as:

<em>(MV) before dilution = (MV) after dilution.</em>

M before dilution = 2.0 M, V before dilution = 0.25 L.

M after dilution = ??? M, V after dilution = 0.25 L + 0.40 L = 0.65 L.

∴<em> M after dilution = (MV) before dilution/(V) after dilution</em> = (2.0 M)(0.25 L)/(0.65 L) =<em> 0.7692 M ≅ 0.77 M.</em>
