Answer is ₂₀⁴²Ca.<span>

In AZX notation
   A<span> - Represents the </span>mass number of atom.
         Mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons.
<span>         It is shown at the </span>above of the left side<span> of the atom.</span>
<span>         Here it is </span>42. 

<span>  </span>Z - Represents the atomic number.<span>
       Atomic number = number of protons.
       </span><span>It is shown at the</span> bottom line of the left side of the atom.<span>
       </span>Here it is 20.<span>
 
  X - </span>Represents the symbol of the atom.<span>
     <span>   </span></span>Here</span> X is Ca.<span>

sashaice [31]

Ephedrine, a central nervous system stimulant, is used in nasal sprays as a decongestant. This compound is a weak organic base:

C10H15ON (aq) + H2O (l) -> C10H15ONH+ (aq) + OH- (aq)

A 0.035 M solution of ephedrine has a pH of 11.33.

a) What are the equilibrium concentrations of C10H15ON, C10H15ONH<span>+, and OH-</span>?

b) Calculate <span>Kb</span> for ephedrine.

c(C₁₀H₁₅NO) = 0,035 M.<span>
pH = 11,33.
pOH = 14 - 11,33 = 2,67.
[OH</span>⁻] = 10∧(-2,67) = 0,00213 M.<span>
[OH</span>⁻] = [C₁₀H₁₅NOH⁺] = 0,00213 M.<span>
[</span>C₁₀H₁₅NO] = 0,035 M - 0,00213 M = 0,03287 M.<span>
Kb = [OH</span>⁻] · [C₁₀H₁₅NOH⁺] / [C₁₀H₁₅NO].<span>
Kb = (</span>0,00213 M)² / 0,03287 M = 1,38·10⁻⁴.

To show the electron configuration for an atom, when would it be better to use an orbital notation than to use a written configu
Kisachek [45]
The answer is: when the aim is to show electron distributions in shells

An orbital notation is more appropriate if you want to show how the electrons of an atom are distributed in each subshell. This is because there are some atoms that have special electronic configurations that aren't obvious in just written configurations.

The atomic number of fluorine is 9. How many electrons does an ion of fluorine have if it is represented by the symbol shown bel
Irina-Kira [14]
  • See charge on ion is -1 .

Hence it has taken 1 electron

Now first look at EC of Fluorine(F)

\\ \bull\sf\dashrightarrow 1s^22s^22p^5

  • Now one electron added .hence no of electrons is 10now

Look at the EC

\\ \bull\sf\dashrightarrow 1s^22s^22p^6

Or

\\ \bull\sf\dashrightarrow [He]

Option C is correct.
