Answer:

b) 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 4d8

Explanation:

Electron configuration of an atom is given based on the Aufbau principle which states that electrons are arranged in orbitals such that the lower energy orbitals are filled first. The increasing energy order of orbitals is:

1s < 2s < 2p < 3s < 3p < 4s < 3d < 4p....

s, p ,d  orbitals can accommodate a maximum of 2,6 and 8 electrons respectively.

Based on the above ordering, the most reasonable ground state configuration would be:

1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 4d8

If 20.0 mL of a 0.0800 M HNO3, 35.0 mL of a 0.0800 M KSCN, and 40.0 mL of a 0.0800 M Fe(NO3)3 are combined, what is the initial
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

0.0295M

Explanation:

As you can see, in the mixture you have KSCN and other compounds. The KSCN in solution is dissolved in K⁺ ions and SCN⁻ ions. That means initial concentration of SCN⁻ ions is the same of KSCN, 0.0800M.

You are adding 35.0mL of this solution and the total volume of the mixture is 20.0mL + 35.0mL + 40.0mL = 95.0mL.

That means you are diluting your solution 95.0mL / 35.0mL = 2.714 times.

And the concentration of SCN⁻ is:

0.0800M / 2.714 =

<h3>0.0295M </h3>

Covalent bonding is the ____ of electrons​
taurus [48]

Answer: sharing

Reason: They do this to gain stability. The reason they don’t actually transfer is because the difference in electronegativity values are above a certain value.

For all of the following questions 20.00 mL of 0.200 M HBr is titrated with 0.200 M KOH.
HACTEHA [7]

Answer :

The concentration of H^+ before any titrant added to our starting material is 0.200 M.

The pH based on this H^+ ion concentration is 0.698

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the concentration of H^+ before any titrant is added to our starting material.

As we are given:

Concentration of HBr = 0.200 M

As we know that the HBr is a strong acid that dissociates complete to give hydrogen ion H^+ and bromide ion Br^-.

As, 1 M of HBr dissociates to give 1 M of H^+

So, 0.200 M of HBr dissociates to give 0.200 M of H^+

Thus, the concentration of H^+ before any titrant added to our starting material is 0.200 M.

Now we have to calculate the pH based on this H^+ ion concentration.

pH : It is defined as the negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration.

pH=-\log [H^+]

pH=-\log (0.200)

pH=0.698

Thus, the pH based on this H^+ ion concentration is 0.698
