7 0

Answer:

1=  K⁺= (Z=19) = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s⁰

2 = Zn²⁺= (Z = 30) =1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s⁰, 3d¹⁰

Explanation:

When an atom lose or gain the electron ions are formed. There are two types of ions cation and anion.

Cation are formed when atom lose the electron.

Anion are formed when an atom gain the electron.

In given question potassium loses its valance electron and form K⁺ cation. Thus its electronic configuration will be written as,

₁₉K⁺ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s⁰

While the electronic configuration of potassium in neutral form is:

₁₉K = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s¹

The atomic number of zinc is 30 and its electronic configuration is:

₃₀Zn= 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s², 3d¹⁰

When zinc atom loses its 2 valance electrons the electron configuration will be,

₃₀Zn²⁺= 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s⁰, 3d¹⁰

Write the condensed formula from left to right, starting with (CH3)x where x is a number.
pochemuha

Complete question:

Write the condensed formula from left to right, starting with (CH3)x where x is a number.

See attached image for the structure formula of the compound

Answer:

(CH₃)₂CHC(CH₃)₃ named as 2,2,3-Trimethylbutane

Explanation:

If we number the longest chain of the carbon starting from the left, we will observe that there are four carbons in the straight chain as shown in the image.

Starting from first carbon from the left of the carbon chain, at carbon number number 2, there two alkyl group, that is two methyl (CH3 is two). Also at carbon number 3, there are three alkyl group, that is three methyl (CH3 is three).

The condensed formula will be written as;

(CH₃)₂CHC(CH₃)₃

This compound is named as 2,2,3-Trimethylbutane, an isomer of Heptane
