Answer : The correct option is argon.

Explanation :

Neutral atom : It is defined as an atom has equal number of electrons and protons.

  • The given electronic configuration of magnesium is,

1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^6

The atomic number of magnesium is 12 that means it has 12 number of protons and 12 number of electrons.

As per given electronic configuration, there are 18 electrons are present in magnesium which is the electronic configuration of argon. So, this is not a neutral atom.

  • The given electronic configuration of argon is,

1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^6

The atomic number of argon is 18 that means it has 18 number of protons and 18 number of electrons. So, this is a neutral atom.

Please answer, please answer please answer please answer<br>my last 2 chemistry question. ​
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

1. filtration and evaporation

2. i) water is added to the sand and salt mixture

ii) then the mixture is filtrated and so the sand and the salt water was seperated

iii) the salt water is heated with the help of burner until the water gets evaporated

iv) after the water gets evaporated, the salt is remained in the container

3. observation:

  • on adding water to the mixture, the salt is completely dissolved in the water
  • when filtrated the sand is seperated from the salt water
  • now the salt water when heated with the burner until the evaporation, the water is evaporated
  • the salt is precipitated and remained in the container

4. cautions:

  • while using the burner, we should be cautious with fire
  • the container that is heated should be holded with the help of a cloth to avoid heat

How much heat is required to convert 20.0 g of ice at 50.0⁰C to liquid water at 0.0⁰C? The specific heat of ice is 2.06 J/(g∙⁰C)
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

8740 joules are required to convert 20 grams of ice to liquid water.

Explanation:

The amount of heat required (Q), measured in joules, to convert ice at -50.0 ºC to liquid water at 0.0 ºC is the sum of sensible heat associated with ice and latent heat of fussion. That is:

Q = m\cdot [c\cdot (T_{f}-T_{o})+L_{f}] (1)

Where:

m - Mass, measured in grams.

c - Specific heat of ice, measured in joules per gram-degree Celsius.

T_{o}, T_{f} - Temperature, measured in degrees Celsius.

L_{f} - Latent heat of fussion, measured in joules per gram.

If we know that m = 20\,g, c = 2.06\,\frac{J}{g\cdot ^{\circ}C}, T_{f} = 0\,^{\circ}C, T_{o} = -50\,^{\circ}C and L_{f} = 334\,\frac{J}{g }, then the amount of heat is:

Q = (20\,g)\cdot \left\{\left(2.06\,\frac{J}{g\cdot ^{\circ}C} \right)\cdot [0\,^{\circ}C-(-50\,^{\circ}C)]+334\,\frac{J}{g} \right\}

Q = 8740\,J

8740 joules are required to convert 20 grams of ice to liquid water.

How many moles of Pb(NO3)2 are required
yarga [219]

Answer:

12 moles Pb(NO₄)₂ needed.

Explanation:

                3Pb(NO₃)₂ +2AlCl₃     => 3PbCl₂ + 2Al(NO₃)₃

Given =>   ? moles      8 moles

from reaction stoichiometry, 2 moles AlCl₃ requires 3 moles Pb(NO₄)₂ then 8 moles AlCl₃ requires 3/2(8) moles of the Pb(NO₄)₂ => 12 moles Pb(NO₄)₂ needed.
