Scientia, meaning knowledge and skill
Answer:
D)
Explanation:
Carbon.
The electronic configuration is -
Thus, 2s orbital is fully filled and p orbital can singly filled 3 electrons. Thus, Carbon has 2 singly occupied orbitals.
But in methane, it forms 4 bonds. So, 1 electron each from 2s orbital jumps to the next orbital in the p subshell.
Thus, the configuration is:-
Thus, the valence electron configuration is:-
2Fe + 3Cl₂ ---> 2FeCl₃
4.4mol of Fe, you have a 2:3 ratio of Fe to Cl₂ so divide 4.4/2 = 2.2 and multiply by three 2.2 x 3 = 6.6mol of Cl₂
hope that helps :)
Answer: B or C
Explanation: The question does not include the variable or steps Brian is using so either one could be correct. It has to be the one that he is controlling though. This is because a control group is used to rule out any alternate explanations. Therefore the answer should be the one that he is trying to test out.
