How to determine the group of an element based on an electron configuration

Chemistry
1 answer:
emmainna [20.7K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

You can easily predict the group of any element by it's valence shell configuration. If the valence e confgn is ns1 then it belongs to 1 group if it is ns2 then it is 2 group element. For p block elements it is 10+ no of es of ns& np. Eg. Cl 3s2 3p5. So group no is 17. For d block elements group no is equal to ns+ (n-1) d es. For e.g. Cr 4s1 3d5 . Group no is 6. For f block elements group no is always 3.

In a compound, such as CH3OH, how determine which is the central atom?
svetlana [45]

Answer:

Choose the least electronegative atom other than H.

Explanation:

A Lewis structure consists of <em>terminal atoms</em> and one or more <em>central atoms</em>.

H can be <em>only a terminal atom</em> because it can form only one bond.

So the central atom must be either C or O.

The central atom is the less electronegative atom: C.

So, start the Lewis structure with a central C atom.

Then attach an O atom to get C-O.

Finally, attach the H atoms.

The condensed formula often gives you a clue where they go.

The formula CH₃OH implies that there are 3 H atoms on C and one on O.

The connectivity of the atoms is then as in the diagram below.

How is the way a mixture is combined different from how a compound is combined?
artcher [175]

Mixture is composed of molecules of different types. A compound can only be separated through chemical means. While a compound is a pure substance that contains 2 or more elements chemically combined together while a mixture are formed when two substances are added together without chemical bonds being formed.

Consider the following ionic compounds: CdCO3, Na2S, PbSO4, (NH4)3PO4, and Hg2Cl2. Which compounds will be soluble when added to
Grace [21]

Answer:

a. Na₂S and (NH₄)₃PO₄ .

Explanation:

To know which salts are soluble we need to remember some <em>solubility rules</em>. And apply these as follows:

* All compounds of group 1 (Li⁺, Na⁺, K⁺, etc.) are soluble, Na₂S is soluble.

* All ammonium salts are soluble,

<h3>(NH₄)₃PO₄ is soluble.</h3>

* All Cl⁻, I⁻, Br⁻ are soluble except when are with Ag⁺, Hg₂²⁺, Pb²⁺, Hg₂Cl₂ is <em>insoluble</em>

* Carbonates are insoluble except those with group 1 or ammonium, CdCO₃ is <em>insoluble</em>

* All sulfates are soluble except those with Ca²⁺, Sr²⁺, Ba²⁺, Pb²⁺, Ag⁺. PbSO₄ is <em>insoluble. </em>

Right solution is:

<h3>a. Na₂S and (NH₄)₃PO₄ </h3>
