Answers:

(a) 1s² 2s²2p³; (b) 1s² 2s²2p⁶ 3s²3p⁶ 4s²3d²; (c) 1s² 2s²2p⁶ 3s²3p⁵

Step-by-step explanation:

One way to solve this problem is to add electrons to the orbitals one-by-one until you have added the required amount.

Fill the subshells in the order listed in the diagram below. Remember that an s subshell can hold two electrons, while a p subshell can hold six, and a d subshell can hold  ten.

(a) <em>Seven electrons </em>

1s² 2s²2p³

There are two electrons in the 2s subshell and three in the 2p subshell. The remaining two electrons are in the inner 1s subshell.

(b) <em>22 electrons </em>

1s² 2s²2p⁶ 3s²3p⁶ 4s²3d²

There are two electrons in the 4s subshell and two in the 2p subshell. The remaining 18 electrons are in the inner subshells.

(c) <em>17 electrons</em>

1s² 2s²2p⁶ 3s²3p⁵

There are two electrons in the 3s subshell and five in the 2p subshell. The remaining 10 electrons are in the inner subshells.

How is stoichiometry used to calculate the amount of product from amount of reactant?
IceJOKER [234]
<span>Stoichiometry deals with the quantitative measurement of reactants and products in a chemical reaction. Let suppose you are given with following reaction;

                                            A  +  2 B   </span>→    3 C

According to this reaction 1 mole of A reacts with 2 moles of B to produce 3 moles of C. Now using the concept of mole one can easily measure the amount of reactants reacted and the amount of product formed, as...

                    1 Mole Exactly equals 6.022 × 10²³ particles

                    1 Mole of Gas (at STP) exactly occupies 22.4 L Volume

                    1 Mole of any compound exactly equals the molar mass in                                 grams

Therefore, <span>Stoichiometry is very helpful in quantitative analysis.</span>
