This element has 3 electrons in its Lewis dot structure and is in the 3p orbital section.

1 answer:

3 0

The answer is Al. If it is a main group element with 3 electrons in its Lewis dot structure, it must be in group 3A. If it is in the 3p orbital section, then it must be in period 3, since the p orbital is a valence orbital and the number that preceeds it is the principal quantum number. Therefore, your answer is the element in period 3 and group 3A, which is aluminum.

Sidana [21]

Answer:

You remove waste as a gas (carbon dioxide), as a liquid (urine and sweat), and as a solid. Excretion is the process of removing wastes and excess water from the body. Recall that carbon dioxide travels through the blood and is transferred to the lungs where it is exhaled

Moving Materials include aluminum foil tape, shipping tape, box tape and duct tape. Moving labels take the guesswork out of the moving process.

Which of these half-reactions represents reduction?

gogolik [260]

Answer: The half-reactions represents reduction are as follows.

$Cr_{2}O^{2-}_{7} \rightarrow Cr^{3+}$
$MnO^{-}_{4} \rightarrow Mn^{2+}$

Explanation:

A half-reaction where addition of electrons take place or a reaction where decrease in oxidation state of an element takes place is called reduction-half reaction.

For example, the oxidation state of Cr in $Cr_{2}O^{2-}_{7}$ is +6 which is getting converted into +3, that is, decrease in oxidation state is taking place as follows.

$Cr_{2}O^{2-}_{7} + 3 e^{-} \rightarrow Cr^{3+}$

Similarly, oxidation state of Mn in $MnO^{-}_{4}$ is +7 which is getting converted into +2, that is, decrease in oxidation state is taking place as follows.

$MnO^{2-}_{4} + 5 e^{-} \rightarrow Mn^{2+}$

Thus, we can conclude that half-reactions represents reduction are as follows.

$Cr_{2}O^{2-}_{7} \rightarrow Cr^{3+}$
$MnO^{-}_{4} \rightarrow Mn^{2+}$
