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.

Among the following, which is an oxidation-reduction reaction? Question 13 options: Na2S + CaCO3 → CaS + Na2CO3 2HNO3 + Mg(OH)2
Tamiku [17]
This one is an oxidation-rdcution equation:

<span>H2 + F2 → 2HF

How can you tell?

If the oxidation states of the atoms in the reactans are different from the oxidation states of the same atoms in the products then it is an oxidation-reduction reaction.

Both atoms H and F in the reactants have oxidation states 0.

That is a basic rule: any atom alone or bonded to the same kind of atom has oxidation state 0.

The oxidation states in HF are: H: +1, and F: -1.

So, the H increased its oxidation state, which is that ii is oxydized ; while F reduced its oxidation state so it is reduced.

Answer: H2 + F2 ----> 2HF
