Which of the following atoms or ions does not have a filled outer subshell?CaSZn2+S2Ca2+
ipn [44]

S and S²⁻ do not have the outer subshell fully filled with electrons.

Explanation:

We look at electronic configurations:

Ca   1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s² - the outer subshell 4s² is fully-filled with electrons

S      1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁴ - the outer subshell 3p⁴ is not fully-filled with electrons

Zn²⁺  1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 3d¹⁰ 4s⁰ - here the 4s subshell is higher in energy than 3d subshell so will consider 3d¹⁰ the out subshell which is fully-filled with electrons

S²⁻  1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p² - the outer subshell 3p² is not fully-filled with electrons

Ca²⁺ 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ - the outer subshell 3p⁶ is fully-filled with electrons

What pressure, in atmospheres, is exerted on the body of a diver if he is 38 ft below the surface of the water when atmospheric
Talja [164]

The pressure of diver = atmospheric pressure + water pressure

atmospheric pressure = 750 mmHg (as given) = 750 / 760 atm = 0.987 atm

Water pressure is

P = hρg

where

h = height of water = 38 ft

1 ft = 0.3048

38 ft = 11.58 m

ρ = density  = 1000 Kg / m³

g = gravitational constant  = 9.81 m/s2

P = 11.58 X 1000 X 9.81 = 113599.8 Kg / m s^2 Or N /m^2

1 N / m^2 = 1 pa = 9.869 X 10^-6 atm

P = 113599.8 Pa = 1.12 atm

Total pressure = 1.12 + 0.987 atm = 2.107 atm = 2.1 atm (two significant figures)

Calculate the formula mass of Cuso4​
Mandarinka [93]
Answer: 159.61 g/mol

Copper has a molar mass of 63.546 g/mol

Sulfur has a molar mass of 32.065 g/mol

Oxygen has a molar mass of 16 g/mol, multiply by 4 and it is 16 x 4 = 64 g/mol

63.546 + 32.065 + 64 = 159.61 g/mol
