The balanced reaction is:

<span>4 Al  +  3 O2  -->  2 Al2O3</span>

 

Each Aluminum atom wants to lose 3 electrons to become isoelectronic with Oxygen. Each Oxygen on the other hand wants to gain 2 electrons. Since the reaction shows 6 Oxygen atoms in the product and each want to gain 2 electrons, therefore a total of 12 electrons are transferred. Since the problem ask for the electrons transferred per formula unit, hence:

<span>6 electrons         (ANSWER)</span>

<u>Answer 2 :</u> The given electronic configuration for a neutral atom of phosphorous in its ground state is incorrect.

Explanation :

A neutral atom of phosphorous has 15 electrons.

The given electronic configuration is incorrect.

The reason is, According to Aufbau principle, the electrons will be first filled in the sub-shell having lower orbital energy. As from the given configuration, 3p sub-shell has lower orbital energy than 4s sub-shell. So, the electrons will be filled in 3p sub-shell first. Hence, the ground state electronic configuration of neutral atom of phosphorous is,

1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^3

<u>Answer 3 :</u>

Element                     Rubidium              Magnesium                Aluminium

Symbol                             Rb                         Mg                              Al

Group number                  1                             2                               13

Number of valence          1                             2                                3

electrons

The order of general reactivity on the basis of number of valence electrons.

Rb > Mg > Al

Reason : The reactivity is determined by the number of electrons present in the outermost shell that means the element which have 1 valence electron will be more reactive because they can easily lose electrons.
