If the atomic number is 15, this means this is element P in the periodic table.

the electron configuration is:

$[P]= 1S^22S^22P^63S^23P^3$

What part of a flowering plant becomes fruit? seed ovary stem spore

Answer:

the ovary

Explanation:

The fertilized ovule becomes the seed, and the ovary becomes the fruit. Petals are also important parts of the flower, because they help attract pollinators such as bees, butterflies and bats. You can also see tiny green leaf-like parts called sepals at the base of the flower.

13. Would you expect oxygen to form a cation or anion? How many electrons would it gain or lose? Why?

netineya [11]

Answer: C)Anion, it would gain 2 electrons to satisfy the octet rule.

Explanation:

Electronic configuration represents the total number of electrons that a neutral element contains. We add all the superscripts to know the number of electrons in an atom.

The electrons are filled according to Afbau's rule in order of increasing energies and thus the electronic configuration of oxygen with 8 electrons is

$O:8:1s^22s^22p^4$

The cation is formed by loss of electrons and anions are formed by gain of electrons.

In order to complete its octet and get stable, it gains 2 electrons and thus would form an anion.

$O^{2-}:10:1s^22s^22p^6$

What are the missing coefficients for the skeleton equation below? Cr(s)+Fe(NO3)2(aq)>Fe(s)+Cr(NO3)3(aq)

Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

2 Cr(s) + 3 Fe(NO3)2(aq) = 3 Fe(s) + 2 Cr(NO3)3(aq)

Explanation:

I balanced this chemical equation so that both sides are equal, meaning that the mass of reactants is equal to mass of products.
