<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,
<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.

We subtract the enthalpies of the reactants from that of the products:
Since this is < 0, this is an exothermic reaction.
Since this is < 0, this is an exothermic reaction.
Answer:
159 mg caffeine is being extracted in 60 mL dichloromethane
Explanation:
Given that:
mass of caffeine in 100 mL of water = 600 mg
Volume of the water = 100 mL
Partition co-efficient (K) = 4.6
mass of caffeine extracted = ??? (unknown)
The portion of the DCM = 60 mL
Partial co-efficient (K) =
where; solubility of compound in the organic solvent and
= solubility in aqueous water.
So; we can represent our data as:
÷
Since one part of the portion is A and the other part is B
A+B = 60 mL
A+B = 0.60
A= 0.60 - B
4.6= ÷
4.6 =
4.6 × =
4.6 B = 0.6 - B
2.76 B = 0.6 - B
2.76 + B = 0.6
3.76 B = 0.6
B =
B = 0.159 g
B = 159 mg
∴ 159 mg caffeine is being extracted from the 100 mL of water containing 600 mg of caffeine with one portion of in 60 mL dichloromethane.
