Answer:

1) Ca: [Ar]4s²
2) Pm: [Xe]6s²4f⁵

Explanation:

1) Ca:

Its atomic number is 20. So it has 20 protons and 20 electrons.

Since it is in the row (period) 4 the noble gas before it is Ar, and the electron configuration is that of Argon whose atomic number is 18.

So, you have two more electrons (20 - 18 = 2) to distribute.

Those two electrons go the the orbital 4s.

Finally, the electron configuration is [Ar] 4s².

2) Pm

The atomic number of Pm is 61, so it has 61 protons and 61 electrons.

Pm is in the row (period) 6. So, the noble gas before Pm is Xe.

The atomic number of Xe is 54.

Therefore, you have to distribute 61 - 54 = 7 electrons on the orbitals 6s and 4f.

The resultant distribution for Pm is: [Xe]6s² 4f⁵.

Which statement is correct regarding the reaction ?
larisa86 [58]

The true statement is that after reaching equilibrium, the rate of forming products and reactants is the same.

<h3>What is true about the given reaction?</h3>

The given reaction shows a reaction between A and B to form CD

The reaction is a reversible reaction.

A reversible reaction is a reaction which can proceed in either of two ways where the reactants can react to form the product and also the products an break down to form the reactants.

In the reaction given, as the concentration of A and b decreases, the concentration of CD increases and vice versa.

At equilibrium, the rate of formation of CD is equal to the the rate of decomposition of CD.

Therefore, the true statement is that after reaching equilibrium, the rate of forming products and reactants is the same.

In conclusion, a reaction at equilibrium has the forward and backward reactions occurring at the sane rate.
