I believe that the answer is element
Answer:
Rb = +1 , Sr = +2, In= +3, Sn = +4, Sb= +5
Explanation:
Formula:
Zeff = Z - S
Z = atomic number
S = number of core shell or inner shell electrons
For Sn:
Electronic configuration:
Sn₅₀ = [Kr] 4d¹⁰ 5s² 5p²
Zeff = Z - S
Zeff = 50 - 46
Zeff = +4
For Rb:
Electronic configuration:
Rb₃₇ = [Kr] 5s¹
Zeff = Z - S
Zeff = 37 - 36
Zeff = +1
For Sb:
Electronic configuration:
Sb₅₁ = [Kr] 4d¹⁰ 5s² 5p³
Zeff = Z - S
Zeff = 51 - 46
Zeff = +5
For In:
Electronic configuration:
In₄₉ = [Kr] 4d¹⁰ 5s² 5p¹
Zeff = Z - S
Zeff = 49 - 46
Zeff = +3
For Sr:
Electronic configuration:
Sr₃₈= [Kr] 5s²
Zeff = Z - S
Zeff = 38 - 36
Zeff = +2
Physical change: a change in which no new substances are formed. the form of the substance is changed but not it's chemical composition (ice melting, bread toasting)
chemical change: any change that results in the formation of new chemical substances. this type of change modifies molecules and atoms by making and breaking the bonds between atoms! (iron rusting, gas burning)
so basically a physical change just changes the appearance of a substance, but a chemical change changes the makeup on a molecular level. i hope this helps you out!
