What is the electron configuration of an electrically neutral atom of magnesium?

Chemistry

Monica [59]3 years ago
3 0

The electron configuration of an atom can be determined by identifying first the right order of the electron shells. The atomic number of Magnesium is 12 so we expect the electrons also sum up to 12. The condensed electron configuration is Ne 3s2. The complete configuration is 1s2  2s2 2p6 3s2.

Archy [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

1)

Given data:

Number of moles of aluminium = 0.223 mol

Mass of silver produced = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

3AgNO₃  +   Al  →  3Ag + Al(NO₃)₃

Now we will compare the moles of Al with silver.

                               Al           :            Ag

                                1            :             3

                                0.223   :         3×0.223= 0.669 mol

Grams of silver:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.669 mol × 107.87 g/mol

Mass = 72.2 g

2)

Given data:

Number of moles of mercury(II) oxide produced = 3.12 mol

Mass of mercury = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2Hg + O₂  →   2HgO

Now we will compare the moles of mercury with mercury(II) oxide.

                         HgO         :         Hg

                            2            :          2

                          3.12          :       3.12

Mass of Hg:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 3.12 mol × 200.59 g/mol

Mass = 625.84 g

3)

Given data:

Number of moles of dinitrogen pentoxide = 12.99 mol

Mass of oxygen = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2N₂  + 5O₂   →  2N₂O₅

Now we will compare the moles of N₂O₅ with oxygen.

                 N₂O₅          :           O₂

                     2            :             5

                    12.99      :         5/2×12.99 = 32.48 mol

Mass of oxygen:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 32.48 mol × 32 g/mol

Mass = 1039.36 g

4)

Given data:

Number of moles of benzene = 0.103 mol

Mass of carbon dioxide = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2C₆H₆  + 15O₂   →  12CO₂ + 6H₂O

Now we will compare the moles of N₂O₅ with oxygen.

                  C₆H₆         :           CO₂

                     2            :             12

                    0.103      :         12/2×0.103 = 0.618 mol

Mass of carbon dioxide:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.618 mol × 44 g/mol

Mass = 27.192 g

There are three factors in which natural selection occurs. Select one statement from the list below that is a true statement abo
azamat

Answer: There is no list in your question. But the three factors in which natural selection occurs are:

1. A struggle for existence,

2. Variation and

3. Inheritance

Explanation:

Darwin’s theory of natural selection is the way in which organisms change overtime.

These changes allow organisms to become better adapted to their environment and increase their chances for survival.

The three major factors through which natural selection occurs are:

1. A struggle for existence,

2. Variation and

3. Inheritance

Darwin’s theory of natural selection will occur if the three conditions above are met and unless these factors are in place, natural selection will not occur.

What volume (in L) will a 32 g sample of butane gas, C4H10(g), occupy at a temperature of 45.0 oC and a pressure of 728 mm Hg?
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

15.0 L

Explanation:

To find the volume, you need to use the Ideal Gas Law:

PV = nRT

In this equation,

-----> P = pressure (mmHg)

-----> V = volume (L)

-----> n = moles

-----> R = Ideal Gas constant (62.36 L*mmHg/mol*K)

-----> T = temperature (K)

To calculate the volume, you need to (1) convert grams C₄H₁₀ to moles (via the molar mass), then (2) convert the temperature from Celsius to Kelvin, and then (3) calculate the volume (via the Ideal Gas Law).

Molar Mass (C₄H₁₀): 4(12.011 g/mol) + 10(1.008 g/mol)

Molar Mass (C₄H₁₀): 58.124 g/mol

32 grams C₄H₁₀              1 moles
-------------------------  x  -----------------------  = 0.551 moles C₄H₁₀
                                    58.124 grams

P = 728 mmHg                      R = 62.36 L*mmHg/mol*K

V = ? L                                    T = 45.0 °C + 273.15 = 318.15 K

n = 0.551 moles

PV = nRT

(728 mmHg)V = (0.551 moles)(62.36 L*mmHg/mol*K)(318.15 K)

(728 mmHg)V = 10922.7632

V = 15.0 L
