Hey there!:

The 1s, 2s and 2p subshells are completely filled (a maximum of two electrons go into the 1s subshell and a maximum of two electrons go into the 2s subshell.  The 2p subshell includes 3 orbitals, with 2 electrons maximum per orbital).  The 3s subshell has only one of a maximum of two electrons.

Hope that helps!

The number of orbitals that are completely full is 5.

The reason you may have thought it was 3 is because you're confusing orbitals with subshells.

In this electron configuration, the sub shells are:  1s^2, 2s^2, 2p^6, 3s^1

So, we have four sub shells.

Each sub shell consists of a specific number of orbitals. s subshells have one orbital, p subshells have three orbitals, d subshells have five orbitals, and f subshells have seven orbitals. Knowing this, we can look back at the electron configuration we were given and determine how many orbitals are filled.

1s^2 has one orbital, 2s^2 has one orbital, 2p^6 has three orbitals, and 3s^1 has one orbital. The first three subshells are completely full, so a total of five orbitals are full.

Ethylene glycol (C2H6O2) is used as an antifreeze in cars. If 250 g of ethylene glycol is added to 3.00 kg of water, what is the
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

2,909 M

Explanation:

molair mass is of.ethylene is 26,04 g/mol

first you need to calculate how much mL 3 kg is. You can do this by using the density of ethylene: 1,1 g/mL.

3000 g x 1.1 = 3300 mL = 3,3 L

Next you need to calculate the amount of moles:

250 g / 26,04 g/mol = 9,60 mol

Now you can calculate the molarity:

9,6/3.3 = 2,909 M

I don't know the answer for the second question. I'm sorry.
