From which sublevel are electrons removed when a zn atom in the ground state is oxidized?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Vesnalui [34]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

4s2

Explanation:

The electronic configuration of zinc in the ground state of the atom is 1s22s22p6 3s23p63d104s2. It can be written in a condensed form by showing the inert gas core as follows; [Ar] 3d¹⁰ 4s².

Zinc has a pseudo inert gas configuration when the 4s electrons are removed during oxidation. Hence this sublevel is usually affected when zinc atoms are oxidized according to the scheme;

Zn---->Zn^2+ + 2e-

Part APart complete A sample of sodium reacts completely with 0.568 kg of chlorine, forming 936 g of sodium chloride. What mass
yan [13]

Answer: 368 grams of sodium reacted.

Explanation:

The balanced reaction is :

2Na(s)+Cl_2(g)\rightarrow 2NaCl(s)

\text{Moles of chlorine}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}    

\text{Moles of chlorine}=\frac{0.568\times 1000g}{71g/mol}=8moles

\text{Moles of sodium chloride}=\frac{936g}{58.5g/mol}=16mol    

According to stoichiometry :

2 moles of NaCl are formed from = 2 moles of Na

Thus 16 moles of NaCl are formed from=\frac{2}{2}\times 16=16moles  of Na

Mass of Na=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=16moles\times 23g/mol=368g

Thus 368 grams of sodium reacted.

Glacial striations have been found in South America, South Africa, India, and Australia. What do these marks tell scientist?
zubka84 [21]
These mars can tell the scientist that there are still a lot of things that they can not discover. The glaciation can also tell us about the alignment of the earth and not just it can tell us about the climate. That is why it is really important for the scientist to study keenly in this kind of matters.

An atom has 11 protons, 10 electrons and 13 neutrons. What is the<br> charge for this atom?
Aliun [14]

Answer:

<h3>the charge is +1 </h3>

Explanation:

<h3>as we know nutral atom have equal number of protons and electrons</h3><h3>from the give this element have 11 protons so if it is nutral it must have 11 electrons,but in the question this atom is charged this means it gains or losts certain amount of electrons , this atom has 11 proton and 10 electron from this we can understand this atom dicreases by 1 from its proton, this means it losts one electron .</h3><h3>when an atom lostes electron it's charge become positive with the number of electrons it lostes .</h3><h3>this atom lost 1 electron there fore it have +1 charge and become ion called cathion</h3>
