<span>The notation is not written in the correct order as the 4s subshell should appear before the 3d subshell.
</span>The correct order in an electron configuration would be: 
1s , 2s , 2p , 3s , 3p , 4s , 3d , 4p , 5s , 4d , 5p , 6s , 4f , 5d , 6p ,..
So, for germanium the electronic configuration should be;
1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s² 3d¹⁰ 4p²

What happens when non-metal atoms ionize? A) They lose electrons B) They gain electrons. C) They lose 2 electrons. D) They do no
nignag [31]
When non-metal atoms ionize they gain electrons.<span> Some examples of this are the halogen elements: F, Cl, Br and I, each, can gain one electron from the respective anions, F-, Cl-, Br-, and I-. O and S, may gain two electrons to form the anions O2- and S2-. This is due to the fact that those elements only need one (in the case of the halogens) or two (in the case of O and S) electrons to reach the most stable configuration of the closest noble gas (with the last shell of electrons full), so they are ready to gain those electrons and form the corresponding ions.</span>

Determine which equations you would use to solve the following problem: Calculate the amount of heat needed to change 20.0 g of
Inessa [10]

Answer:

Q = 4019.4 J

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of ice = 20.0 g

Initial temperature = -10°C

Final temperature = 89.0°C

Amount of heat required = ?

Solution:

specific heat capacity of ice is 2.03 J/g.°C

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT = T2 - T1

ΔT =  89.0°C - (-10°C)

ΔT = 99°C

Q = 20.0 g ×2.03 J/g.°C × 99°C

Q = 4019.4 J

How does the amount of space between particles differ in the ballon and helium cylinder
Ivanshal [37]
In a balloon there is a low pressure within the balloon. This means that the particles are more spaced out. Wheras in the cylinder they are under high pressure, meaning that the particles are much closer together!

An object has a mass of 4 grams and a volume of 2 cm3. What is the density of the object
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 2.0 g/cm³</h3>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

density =  \frac{mass}{volume}  \\

From the question

mass = 4 g

volume = 2 cm³

We have

density =  \frac{4}{2}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>2.0 g/cm³</h3>

Hope this helps you
