Chemistry
1 answer:
ivann1987 [24]3 years ago
3 0

<u>Answer:</u> The electronic configuration of gallium is written below and number of valence electrons is 3.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Electronic configuration is defined as the representation of electrons around the nucleus of an atom.

Number of electrons in an atom is determined by the atomic number of that atom.

Valence electrons are defined as the electrons present in the outermost shell of an atom.

We are given:

An element Gallium having atomic number as 31.

Number of electrons = 31

Electronic configuration of Gallium is: (Z=31):1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d^{10}4p^1

This element has 3 electrons in its outermost shell. So, the number of valence electrons is 3

Hence, the electronic configuration of gallium is written below and number of valence electrons is 3.

In an acid-base neutralization reaction 38.74 ml of 0.500 m potassium hydroxide reacts with 50.00 ml of sulfuric acid solution.
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

0.2 M.

Explanation:

  • For the acid-base neutralization, we have the role:

The no. of millimoles of acid is equal to that of the base at the neutralization.

<em>∴ (XMV) KOH = (XMV) H₂SO₄.</em>

X is the no. of reproducible H⁺ (for acid) or OH⁻ (for base),

M is the molarity.

V is the volume.

  • For KOH:

X = 1, M = 0.5 M, V = 38.74 mL.

  • For H₂SO₄:

X = 2, M = ??? M, V = 50.0 mL.

∴ M of H₂SO₄ = (XMV) KOH/(XV) H₂SO₄ = (1)(0.5 M)(38.74 mL)/(2)(50.0 mL) = 0.1937 M ≅ 0.2 M.

What is the difference between a physical change and a chemical change? give examples for both​
Tanya [424]

Answer:

Physical change is a temporary change. A chemical change is a permanent change.

Explanation:

A Physical change affects only physical properties i.e. shape, size, etc. Chemical change both physical and chemical properties of the substance including its composition.

Chlorine gas can be made from the reaction of manganese dioxide with hydrochloric acid. MnO2(s) + 4HCl(aq) → MnCl2(aq) + 2H2O(l)
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Please see the complete formt of the question below

Chlorine gas can be made from the reaction of manganese dioxide with hydrochloric acid.

MnO₂(s) + HCl(aq) → MnCl₂(aq) + H₂O(l) + Cl₂(g)

According to the above reaction, determine the limiting reactant when 5.6 moles of MnO₂ are reacted with 7.5 moles of HCl.

The answer to the above question is

The limiting reactant is the MnO₂

Explanation:

To solve this,  we note that one mole of MnO₂ reacts with one mole of HCl to produce one mole of MnCl₂, one mole of H₂O and one mole of Cl₂

Molar mass of MnO₂ = 86.9368 g/mol

Molar mass of HCl = 36.46 g/mol

From the stoichiometry of the reaction, 5.6 moles of MnO₂ will react with 5.6 moles of HCl to produce 5.6  moles of H₂O and 5.6 moles of Cl₂

However there are 7.5 moles of HCL therefore there will be an extra 7.5-5.6 or 1.9 moles of HCl remaining when the reaction is completed
