What is an electron configuration?

1 answer:

4 0

In atomic physics and quantum chemistry, the electron configuration is the distribution of electrons of an atom or molecule (or other physical structure) in atomic or molecular orbitals. For example, the electron configuration of the neon atom is 1s² 2s² 2p⁶, using the notation explained below.

Answer:

C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ and CH₃OH

Explanation:

Sucrose and methyl alcohol are nonelectrolytes. They do not ionize or conduct a current in aqueous solution.

HC₂H₃O₂ is a weak electrolyte. It produces only a few ions and is a poor conductor of electricity in aqueous solution.

HC₂H₃O₂ + H₂O ⇌ H₃O⁺ + C₂H₃O₂⁻

H₂SO₄ is a strong electrolyte. Its first ionization is complete, so it is a good conductor of electricity in aqueous solution.

H₂SO₄ + H₂O ⟶ H₃O⁺ + HSO₄⁻

Which of these are ionic compounds? Check all that apply.

SIZIF [17.4K]

I think the correct answers from the choices listed above are the first, third and the last option. Ionic compounds are compounds that dissociates into ions when in aqueous solution. From the list, NH4Cl, KF and MgO are the ionic compounds. Hope this answers the question.

When NH3(g) reacts with N2O(g) to form N2(g) and H2O(g), 105 kcal of energy are evolved for each mole of NH3(g) that reacts. Wri

Answer : The balanced chemical equation is,

$2NH_3(g)+3N_2O(g)\rightarrow 4N_2(g)+3H_2O(g)+210kcal$

Explanation :

Balanced chemical equation : It is defined as the number of atoms of individual elements present on the reactant side must be equal to the number of atoms of individual elements present on product side.

The given unbalanced chemical reaction is,

$NH_3(g)+N_2O(g)\rightarrow N_2(g)+H_2O(g)+105kcal$

This chemical reaction is an unbalanced reaction because in this reaction, the number of atoms of individual elements are not balanced.

In order to balanced the chemical reaction, the coefficient 2 is put before the $NH_3$ , the coefficient 3 is put before the $N_2O\text{ and }H_2O$ and the coefficient 4 is put before the $N_2$ .
