What element is represented by the following electron configuration:

1 answer:

6 0

For better representation, let me rewrite the electronic configuration:

1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s²3d⁴

The exponents represent the number of electrons in the designated subshell. Thus, the total number of electrons are:
# of electrons = 2+2+6+2+6+2+4 = 24

Assuming this is in neutral state, the element with an atomic number of 24 is Chromium. Thus, the answer is Cr.

Do you know how to do this? if you have 4 grams of carbon-14, how much carbon 14 remains after 11,460 years? the half life is 5,

Delvig [45]

Carbon dating has given archeologists a more accurate method by which they can determine the age of ancient artifacts. The halflife of carbon 14 is 5730 ± 30 years, and the method of dating lies in trying to determine how much carbon 14 (the radioactive isotope of carbon) is present in the artifact and comparing it to levels

Each student in a class placed a 2.00 g sample of a mixture of Cu and Al in a beaker and placed the beaker in a fume hood. The s

Answer:

Percentage mass of copper in the sample = 32%

Explanation:

Equation of the reaction producing Cu(NO₃) is given below:

Cu(s)+ 4HNO₃(aq) ---> Cu(NO₃)(aq) + 2NO₂(g) + 2H₂O(l)

From the equation of reaction, 1 mole of Cu(NO₃) is produced from 1 mole of copper. Therefore, 0.010 moles of Cu(NO₃) will be produced from 0.010 mole of copper.

Molar mass of copper = 64 g/mol

mass of copper = number of moles * molar mass

mass of copper = 0.01 mol * 64 g/mol = 0.64 g

Percentage by mass of copper in the 2.00 g sample = (0.64/2.00) * 100%

Percentage mass of copper in the sample = 32%

Is density a direct or inverse function of the volume of an object?

marissa [1.9K]

The actual formula for volume for a cube is the length multiplied by the width and then multiplied by the height. Since all three measurements are the same, the formula results in the measurement of one side cubed. For the example, 5^3 is 125 cm^3. Multiply the volume by the known density, which is the mass per volume.
