What is the electron configuration of an electrically neutral alkaline earth metal? please explain​

Chemistry
1 answer:
vlabodo [156]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The elements in Group 2 (beryllium, magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium, and radium) are called the alkaline earth metals (see Figure below). These elements have two valence electrons, both of which reside in the outermost s sublevel. The general electron configuration of all alkaline earth metals is ns

It’s easier to determine the elecron configurations for the p-block elements in periods 1,2,3 than to determine the electrons co
kotegsom [21]
<span>It’s easier to determine the elecron configurations for the p-block elements in periods 1,2,3 than to determine the electrons configurations for the rest of the p-block elements in the periodic table beacause from period 4, specifically from the element 31 (Ga), the atoms start to fill the d orbitals, and the energy levels of the 3d orbitals ara quite similar to the energy levels of 4p orbitals. So, for the elements Cr and Cu the right configurations do not match the configurations predicted using Aufbau method and Hund rules. Those are not the only exceptions but the two first. All is due to the proximity of the energy of the d and p orbitals and the fact that the rearrangement of the electrons result in a lower energy level. </span>

When naming a binary compound which element is named first metal or nonmetal
Ilya [14]

Answer:

Metal is named first

Explanation:

Binary compounds:

The compounds which are made up of the atoms of only two elements are called binary compounds.

For example:

The following compounds are binary:

HCl

NaCl

HCl is binary because it is composed of only hydrogen and chlorine.

Sodium chloride is also binary compound composed of only two element hydrogen and chlorine.

When naming these compounds the name of metal or cation is written first and anion is written after the cation. The anions are non meals.

The anion name is end with suffix " ide".

such as sodium chloride.

In the reaction aA + bB &gt;&gt; dD, the lowercase letters represent?
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

Coefficient

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

aA + bB    →   dD

This equation shows that reaction is balanced by coefficient q,b and d.

Reactant    coefficients              Product      Coefficient

A                    a                               D                     d

 B                    b                  

Every balanced equation follow the law of conservation of mass.

Law of conservation of mass:

According to the law of conservation mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.

Explanation:

This law was given by french chemist  Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

For example:

In given photosynthesis reaction:

6CO₂ + 6H₂O + energy → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

there are six carbon atoms, eighteen oxygen atoms and twelve hydrogen atoms on the both side of equation so this reaction followed the law of conservation of mass. The numbers 6 with CO₂, 6 with H₂O and 6 with O₂  are coefficient which balance the equation.

What sample has particles with the lowest average kinetic energy
makvit [3.9K]

The sample with the lowest AVERAGE kinetic energy is
the coolest one.

The sample with the lowest TOTAL kinetic energy depends on
not only the temperature of the samples, but also on their size,
since each molecule in the sample has kinetic energy.
