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-

Does anyone know how to do this?
Sloan [31]

Answer

find out the number of moles and use the molar ratio (numbers in front of formulas (in this case they are all 1) to determine how many moles of each product you are going to get theoretically

n=m/M is the equation to use to get moles here

30.8 gm/32.04 g/mol=0.9612 moles of the methanol and also of the formaldehyde so

0.9612 moles of the formaldehyde x molar mass (M) 30.73 g/mol= 29.54 gm which is the theoretical yield you already have the actual yield of 24.7 gm

then divide the actual by the theoretical to get the % yield which is 83.6%

What are the two ways to measure the sand in a sand castle?
Sergeu [11.5K]
The two ways to measure the sand in a sand castle are by counting the number of pails of sand used to build the castle and by determining the mass of the sand used in building the castle. The first method makes use of the volume of the pail to determine the amount of sand while the second method is a more quantitative way.<span />

Air currents move objects in the air. Explain how a convection current might affect the flight of a hot air balloon
photoshop1234 [79]

Hot/ warm air is less dense than cold/cool air. Therefore warm/ hot air rises and cool/cold air falls in the atmosphere to create convection currents. The hot air balloon also uses this concept to fly. The air in the balloon is heated by the inbuilt flamer and when the air rises in temperatures (in comparison to ambient air temperatures) it becomes less dense and begins to rise. This raises the balloon into the atmosphere.
