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.

What is the main source of energy for the water cycle.
viktelen [127]

Answer:

The main source of energy is the sun. The sun has a big part in the water cycle because it turns the water into water vapor. This cause the water cycle to start over again once it rains. Therefore, making the sun ne of the biggest parts in the water cycle.

How many moles are in 250 grams of tungsten (W)? * 4.4x10^23 moles 4.2x10^23 moles 0.7 moles 1.4 moles
kvasek [131]

Ans: 1.4 moles

<u>Given:</u>

Mass of tungsten = 250 g

<u>To determine:</u>

Moles of Tungsten

<u>Explanation:</u>

# moles of a given substance = Mass of the substance in grams/molar mass (g.mol-1)

Atomic mass of W = 184 g.mol-1

# moles of W = 250 g/184 g.mol-1 = 1.359 moles
