Sodium metal is quite reactive; sodium ions (as in NaCl) are quite unreactive. Cl^- ions are not reactive; they are stingily attracted to positive ions such as Na^+with which they form ionic bonds.
Electronic configuration of cromium is
Cr-[Ar]4s¹3d⁵
When cromium loses two electrons it becomes Cr⁺².
So its electronic configuration becomes,
Cr⁺²-[Ar]3d⁴
One electron will go from 4s orbital and one electron will go from 3d orbital.
So the answer here is D. [Ar]3d⁴ -because after losing 2 electrons electronic configuration of cromium becomes [Ar] 3d⁴.
Factors that determine ionization energy:
- Electronic Repulsion - If the electronic density decreases, the ionization energy with increase and vice versa. If an electron gets released, it decreases the electronic repulsion. This makes releasing another electron harder than the first on unless the electron that is being released comes from another energetic level.
- # Of Energy Levels - The more energy cores that get filled up, the more ionization levels decrease. When we see the energy levels go from top to bottom, the ionization also go from most to least. This is why ionization occurs on the highest level.
- Nuclear Charge - The higher the atomic number, the higher charge in the nuclei. This also makes the ionization energy higher as it increases from left to right of in other words, if the nuclear charge gets higer, the energy gets higher as well.
Factors that determine atomic volume:
- How many protons are in the nucleus (nuclear charge)
- How many energy levels carry electrons (electrons in outer energy level)
Best of Luck!
It is important for the pH of blood to remain constant because your blood would ionize and burn up if the pH wasn't constant. And if the pH was too high, bacteria ( good and bad, and foreign) would end up dying, as well as yourself.
Answer:
Explanation: E. 12 because it has the highest acidity rate.
