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.

What is the molarity of a solution that contains 0.400 mol HCI in 9.79 L solutions ​
USPshnik [31]

Molarity's formula is known as: Molarity(M)=moles of solute/liters solution.

In this case we are already given moles and liters so you just have to plug the numbers into the equation.

0.400 mol HCL/9.79L solution=0.040858M

If you were to use scientific notation, the answer will be: 4.1*10^-2, but otherwise, you can just use the decimals above and round appropriately as you see fit.

Vitamin C, also known as ascorbic acid, is composed of 40.9 percent carbon, 4.6 percent hydrogen, and 54.5 percent oxygen. The m
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

Molecular formula is : C₆H₈O₆  

Explanation:

40.9 % of C, 4.6 % of H, 54.5 % of O means that in 100 g of ascorbic acid, we have 40.9 g of C, 4.6 g of H and 54.5 g of O.

If 1 mol of ascorbic acid weighs 176 g, let's determine the rules of three to know the grams of each element:

100 g of compound has ___ 40.9 g C __ 4.6 g H ___ 54.5 g O

176 g compound mus have:

(176 . 40.9) / 100 = 72 g of C

(176 . 4.6) / 100 = 8 g of H

(176 . 54.5) / 100 = 96 g of O

If we convert the mass to moles:

72 g . 1 mol / 12 g = 6 C

8 g . 1 mol/ 1g = 8 H

96 g . 1mol / 16 g = 6 O

Molecular formula is : C₆H₈O₆  

In conclussion, 1 mol of ascorbic acid has 6 moles of C, 8 moles of H and 6 moles of O
