Answer : Valence electrons in atom A = 1, B = 6 and C = 2.

Explanation :

Valence electrons means the outermost electrons are the ones which involved in bonding. Electrons are arranged in energy levels or shells.

Valence electrons are found in the highest energy orbitals of an element.

  • The electronic configuration of (Na) is 1s^22s^22p^63s^1. The highest energy orbital is 3s orbital which contains 1 electron. So,

        The number of valence electrons in (Na) = A = 1

Similarly,

  • The electronic configuration of (O) is 1s^22s^22p^4. The highest energy orbital are 2s and 2p orbitals which contains (2 + 4) = 6 electrons. So,

       The number of valence electrons in (O) = B = 6

  • The electronic configuration of (Fe) is 1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d^6. The highest energy orbital is 4s orbital which contains 2 electrons. So,

       The number of valence electrons in (Fe) = C = 2

A 40.27 g sample of a substance is initially at 24.8 °c. after absorbing 2099 j of heat, the temperature of the substance is 148
Darina [25.2K]
Q = mCΔT
Q is heat in joules, m is mass, C is specific heat, and delta T is change in temp

2099 J = (40.27g)(C)(148.5 - 24.8) = .421 J / gram K

The equilibrium constant for the formation of ammonia from nitrogen and hydrogen is 1.6 × 102. what is the form of the equilibri
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer: The expression for equilibrium constant is \frac{[NH_3]^2}{[H_2]^3[N_2]}

Explanation: Equilibrium constant is the expression which relates the concentration of products and reactants preset at equilibrium at constant temperature. It is represented as k_c

For a general reaction:

aA+bB\rightleftharpoons cC+dD

The equilibrium constant is written as:

k_c=\frac{[C]^c[D]^d}{[A]^a[B]^b}

Chemical reaction for the formation of ammonia is:

N_2+3H_3\rightleftharpoons 2NH_3

k_c=1.6\times 10^2

Expression for k_c is:

k_c=\frac{[NH_3]^2}{[H_2]^3[N_2]}

1.6\times 10^2=\frac{[NH_3]^2}{[H_2]^3[N_2]}
