What is the ground state electron configuration for Ru2+?
2 answers:
Electronic configuration: The distribution or arrangement of electrons of a molecule or an atom in molecular or atomic orbitals.
Ground state electron configuration: The distribution of electrons of an atom or molecule around the nucleus with lower levels of energy.
Now, stands for Ruthenium with atomic number 44. It is a metal and thus, has ability to lose electrons and, becomes positively charged ion.
One can write the electronic configuration with the help of atomic number and Afbau principle, Pauli exclusion principle etc.
Ground electronic Configuration is as follows:
Soft Hand notation:
Now, when ruthenium loses two electrons then it becomes , thus electron configuration becomes
Soft Hand notation:
The ground state electronic configuration of Ruthenium is and when it loses two electrons, then electronic configuration becomes

Answer:
P=atm
Explanation:
The problem give you the Van Der Waals equation:
First we are going to solve for P:
Then you should know all the units of each term of the equation, that is:
where atm=atmosphere, L=litters, K=kelvin
Now, you should replace the units in the equation for each value:
Then you should multiply and eliminate the same units which they are dividing each other (Please see the photo below), so you have:
Then operate the fraction subtraction:
P=
And finally you can find the answer:
P=atm
Now solving for b:
Replacing units:
Multiplying and dividing units,(please see the second photo below), we have:
