Identify the following neutral elements by their condensed electron configurations. (Enter the chemical symbol or name of the el

ement.)
(i) [Kr] 5s1 4d10


(ii) [Xe] 6s2 4f14 5d7


(iii) [Ar] 4s2 3d10 4p4


(iv) [Kr] 5s1 4d4


(v) [Xe] 6s1 4f14 5d10


(vi) [Kr] 5s2 4d10 5p4


(b) Based on the electron configurations in part (a), which of the identified elements will have similar properties? Explain. (Enter the chemical symbols of the elements. Separate substances in a list with a comma.)

Elements with similar electron configurations, regardless of which shell each subshell is in, will likely have similar properties.

There are two atoms with the same number of electrons in the outermost d subshell.

Answer: [Kr] 5s1 4d10 silver

[Xe] 6s2 4f14 5d7 Iridium

[Ar] 4s2 3d10 4p4 selenium

[Kr] 5s1 4d4 niobium

[Xe] 6s1 4f14 5d10 gold

[Kr] 5s2 4d10 5p4 tellurium

Explanation:

Selenium and tellurium will have the same properties because they both belong to group 16 in the periodic table.

Silver and gold will have the same properties because they both belong the group 11 in the periodic table.

Elements having the same outermost shell configuration show similar properties since chemical reactions occur by loss or gain of electrons. This loss or gain is determined by the number of electrons occupying the outermost shell. Elements in the same group have the same outermost shell electron configuration and similar properties.

Suppose that 33.3 J of heat is added to an ideal gas. The gas expands at a constant pressure of 1.45 104 Pa while changing its v
levacccp [35]

Answer:

ΔU = 25.8 J

Explanation:

The gas absorbs 33.3 J of heat, that is, Q = 33.3 J.

The work (W) of expansion can be calculated using the following expression:

W = -P. ΔV

where,

P is the external pressure

ΔV is the change in volume

W = -1.45 × 10⁴ N . m⁻² × (8.40 × 10⁻⁴ m³ - 3.24 × 10⁻⁴ m³) = -7.48 J

The change in the internal energy (ΔU) is:

ΔU = Q + W

ΔU =  33.3 J + (-7.48 J) = 25.8 J

Define the law of conservation of charge and provide an example.
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

Conservation of Charge is the principle that the total electric charge in an isolated system never changes. The net quantity of electric charge, the amount of positive charge minus the amount of negative charge in the universe, is always conserved.

iogann1982 [59]
False, the radiation from food and medical procedures have very little consequences. The radiation from a nuclear power plant can kill people which makes it a very large problem if not contained properly.

How many particles are in 1 mol of carbon? 1 mol of lithium? 1 mol of eggs? will 1 mol of each of these substances have the same
andrezito [222]
<span>One mole of a substance contains Avogadro's number of atoms/molecules/the like. This would mean that all of the items described would have approximately 6.022 * 10^23 atoms, even though their masses would differ. This would be due to the molar mass of each substance being different because of the constituent elements in the substance.</span>
