Explanation:

Electronic configuration of uranium is given below -

1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶3d¹⁰4s²4p⁶4d¹⁰5s²5p⁶4f¹⁴5d¹⁰6s²6p⁶5f³6d¹7s2²

Effective nuclear charge (Z eff) = Atomic number (Z) - Shielding constant (S)

<u> Value of Shielding constant (S) can be calculated by using slater's rule : </u>

S = 1 (0.35) + 9 (0.85) + 81 (1.00)

S = 0.35 + 7.65 + 81.00

S = 89

So,

Zeff = Z - S

Zeff = 92 - 89

<u> Zeff = 3 </u>

Hence, Effective nuclear charge (Zeff) of uranium = <u>3 </u>

5s electron is closest to the nucleus.

Calculate the volume in milliliters of a 0.420mol / L barlum chlorate solution that contains 25.0 g of barium chlorate (Ba(ClO 3
Pachacha [2.7K]

<u>Answer:</u> The volume of barium chlorate is 195.65 mL

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the volume of solution, we use the equation used to calculate the molarity of solution:

\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}

Given mass of barium chlorate = 25.0 g

Molar mass of barium chlorate = 304.23 g/mol

Molarity of solution = 0.420 mol/L

Volume of solution = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.420mol/L=\frac{25.0\times 1000}{304.23\times V}\\\\V=\frac{25.0\times 1000}{304.23\times 0.420}=195.65mL

Hence, the volume of barium chlorate is 195.65 mL

Why is cellulose not a source of nutrients for humans? Humans cannot absorb the hydrolyzed form of cellulose. Humans, and most v
adell [148]

Answer:

The correct answer is vertebrate enzyme hydrolyze alpha-1,4 glycosidic linkage but not glucose in the beta configuration.

Explanation:

The amylase that is present inside human body is called salivary alpha amylase,an enzyme that digest the alpha-1,4-glycosidic linkages of starch but does not act on those glycosidic linkages which are present in beta configuration.

       Cellulose contain beta-1,4-glycosidic linkages.That"s why it is not digested by the alpha amylase enzyme present inside the human body basically present in the saliva.

8. What group numbers are the transition elements in?
Anna007 [38]
The 38 elements in groups 3 through 12 of the periodic table are called "transition metals". As with all metals, the transition elements are both ductile and malleable, and conduct electricity and heat. The interesting thing about transition metals is that their valence electrons, or the electrons they use to combine with other elements, are present in more than one shell. This is the reason why they often exhibit several common oxidation states. There are three noteworthy elements in the transition metals family. These elements are iron, cobalt, and nickel, and they are the only elements known to produce a magnetic field I HOPE THIS HELP:)
