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

A single atom of platinum has a mass of 3.25 x 10-22g. What is the mass of 6.0 x 1023 platinum atoms?
boyakko [2]
Even though the numbers are in scientific notation, they are still just numbers. Essentially the question is as simple as "An apple weighs an ounce, how much do 35 apples weigh?". So all you have to do is multiply.

3.25 x 10^{-22}   x  6.0 x10^{23}  = 195

What is the mass of a wooden block with a density 2.0 and a volume of 7.0? (Need answer ASAP!!)
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

mass= 14kg

Explanation:

density= mass/volume

so that means mass= volume x density

m= 2kg/m³ x 7m³

m= 14 kg

Hope this helps

would you expect the N-O bond in HNO2 to be longer, shorter, or the same length as the N-O bonds in NO2^-
prohojiy [21]
Longer, this is because the H in HNO2 is bonded with an oxygen, no longer allowing this structure to have a resonance structure.
NO2 on the other hand has one double bond and one single bond, so it has a resonance structure. And resonance structures are actually one structure so there isn't really a single and double bond, it's actually a 1 and 1/2 bond that calls for a higher bond order.
And I higher bond order will result in a shorter lengths!
I hope this helps out!!! And just out of curiosity, is this off of an AP FRQ packet??
