Answer: option A

Explanation: since as we know that notation to write electronic configuration is nl^x

Here n represents the main shell number and l tells about subshell and X denotes the no of Electrons present in that subshell.

In our case , n=3 ,that means it t main third shell. Or we can say it as shell 'M'

The 3 indicates the third electron shell. (Which has only 1 electron in it in this configuration)

Hope this helps! :)

Will platinum (pt) metal react with a lead(ii) nitrate solution?

My name is Ann [436]

To answer this question, we must first look at the reactivity series table. From the table, we can see that those which are located above are the most reactive while those below are less reactive. Which means that elements cannot replace those elements which are above them.

From the series, platinum is below lead, hence there will be no reaction.

Answer:

No reaction

chemistry A basketball is inflated to a pressure of 1.10 atm in a 28.0°C garage. What is the pressure of the basketball outside

butalik [34]

Answer : The final pressure of the basketball is, 0.990 atm

Explanation :

Gay-Lussac's Law : It is defined as the pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant volume and number of moles.

$P\propto T$

or,

$\frac{P_1}{P_2}=\frac{T_1}{T_2}$

where,

$P_1$ = initial pressure = 1.10 atm

$P_2$ = final pressure = ?

$T_1$ = initial temperature = $28.0^oC=273+28.0=301.0K$

$T_2$ = initial temperature = $-2.00^oC=273+(-2.00)=271.0K$

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

$\frac{1.10atm}{P_2}=\frac{301.0K}{271.0K}$

$P_2=0.990atm$

Thus, the final pressure of the basketball is, 0.990 atm

A neutral atom in the ground state of Sulfur has its outer most valence electron in which orbital? f d

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer: The outermost valence electron enters the p orbital.

Explanation:

Valence electrons are defined as the electrons which are present in outer most orbital of an atom.

Sulfur is the 16th element of the periodic table having 16 electrons.

Electronic configuration of sulfur atom is $1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^4$

The number of valence electrons are 2 + 4 = 6

These 6 electrons enter s-orbital and p-orbital but the outermost valence electron will enter the p-orbital.

Hence, the outermost valence electron enters p orbital.

A 100.00 ml of volume of 0.500 M HCl was mixed with 100.00 ml of 0.500 M KOH in a constant pressure calorimeter. The initial tem

Virty [35]

Answer:

The heat of the reaction = -1985 J = -1.985 kJ

The enthalpy of the reaction is -39.7 kJ/ mol

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Volume of HCl = 100 mL the heat of the reaction = 0.1 L

Molarity of HCl solution = 0.500 M

Volume of KOH = 100 mL = 0.1 L

Molarity of KOH solution = 0.500 M

Initial temperature = 23.0 °C

Final temperature = 25.5 °C

Specific heat of the solution = 3.97 J/°C *g

Density of the solution = 1g/ mL

Step 2: Calculate heat

Q = m*c*ΔT

with m = the mass of both solution : 100g + 100 g ( since density = 1g/mL) = 200 g

c = the specific heat = 3.97 J/°C*g

ΔT = T2 -T1 = 25.5 = 23 = 2.5 °C

Q = 200g *3.97 J/°C*g * 2.5°C = 1985 J (= -1985 J because it's exothermic)

Step 3: Calculate the number of moles

Number of moles = Molarity * Volume

Number of moles = 0.5 * 0.1 L = 0.05 moles

(Moles of the acid are equal to the moles of water produced.

Moles of solution = 0.05 moles)

Step 4: Calculate the enthalpy of the reaction

ΔH = heat change /Number of moles

= -1.985 kJ/ 0.05 moles

=- 39700 J/mol = -39.7 kJ/ mol

The enthalpy of the reaction is -39.7 kJ/ mol

The enthalpy of the reaction is negative, this means the reaction is exothermic ( which means the final temperature is higher than the initial temperature.)

QUESTION 51 Buffer capacity is best defined as: OA) Buffer capacity is the amount of acid or base that can be added to a buffer

Schach [20]

Answer:

The best definition is: "Buffer capacity is the amount of acid or base that can be added to a buffer without destroying its effectiveness"

Explanation:

A buffer is a solution that is somewhat resist to pH changes by reacting with acids and bases that may be added into the solution. It's capacity is the amounto of acid or base that can be added into solution without much change in pH.

So the best definition is: "Buffer capacity is the amount of acid or base that can be added to a buffer without destroying its effectiveness"
