Given following electron configurations, 1s22s22p63s23p64s23d104p65s24d9 and 1s22s22p63s23p64s23d104p65s14d10.

1 answer:

8 0

Explanations:- Part 1: We could count the total number of electrons by looking at the electron configurations. Both of these electrons configurations have 47 electrons. If we look at the periodic table then 47 is the atomic number of silver. So, the name of the element is silver and its represented as Ag.

Part 2: As per the rule, Completely filled and half filled orbitals are more stable. First electron configuration has 9 electrons in 4d and we know that d is more stable if it has 5 electrons(half filled) or it has 10 electrons(full filled).

For stability reasons, one of the electron from 5s goes to 4d and for this reason the second electron configuration is found most often in nature for silver.

Few other examples are Cr and Cu.

How many grams of Na2SO4 should be weighed out to prepare 0.5L of a 0.100M solution?

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

7 gram of Na2SO4 should be required to prepare 0.5L of a 0.100 M solution.

Explanation:

First of all the molecular weight of Na2SO4 is 142.08 gram.Now we all know that if the molecular weight of a compound is dissolved in 1000ml or 1 litee of water then the strength of that solution becomes 1 M.

According to the given question we have to prepare 0.100 M solution

1000 ml of solution contain 142.08×0.1= 14.208 gram Na2SO4

1 ml of solution contain 14.208÷1000= 0.014 gram

0.5L or 500ml of solution contain 0.014×500= 7gram Na2SO4.

So it can be stated that 7 gram of Na2SO4 should be required to prepare 0.5L of a 0.100M solution.

Zinc sulfate is a 2-ion electrolyte,

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer: The value of i is 1.4 and 40% dissociation of 100 particles of zinc sulfate will yield 60 undissociated particles.

Explanation:

The equation used to calculate the Vant' Hoff factor in dissociation follows:

$\alpha =\frac{i-1}{n-1}$

where,

$\alpha$ = degree of dissociation = 40% = 0.40

i = Vant' Hoff factor

n = number of ions dissociated = 2

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.40=\frac{i-1}{2-1}\\\\0.40=i-1\\\\i=1.4$

The equation used to calculate the degee of dissociation follows:

$\alpha =\frac{\text{Number of particles dissociated}}{\text{Total number of particles taken}}$

Total number of particles taken = 100

Degree of dissociation = 40% = 0.40

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.40=\frac{\text{Number of particles dissociated}}{100}\\\\\text{Number of particles dissociated}=(0.40\times 100)=40$

This means that 40 particles are dissociated and 60 particles remain undissociated in the solution.

Hence, 40% dissociation of 100 particles of zinc sulfate will yield 60 undissociated particles.

The process of pouring a mixture though a filter to catch the larger particles while allowing the smaller particles to pass thro

Annette [7]

This process is called filtration. This process is a solid-fluid separation by the use of a medium wherein only the fluid (gases or liquids) can go through it. The medium is called the filter while the fluid that passed through the filter is called the filtrate. The solid particles are the large particles which cannot pass through the filter.
