Sulfur has two filled energy levels and six electrons on the third energy level. The corresponding electron configuration is A.
B is incorrect because there are no p orbitals at the first energy level, ie, no 1p orbitals. C is incorrect because the 4s1 electron would spontaneously drop into the 3p orbitals. D is incorrect because the 3d electrons would spontaneously drop into the 3p orbitals.

Why do different molecules require different masses to make 1 mol
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

Different substances have different molecular masses. Thus, equal masses have different numbers of atoms, molecules, or moles. On the other hand, equal numbers of moles of different substances have different masses.

Which polyatomic ion is found in the compound represented by the formula NaHCO3?
stiv31 [10]

Answer: The correct option is 2.

Explanation: Polyatomic ions are defined as the ions in which two or more elements are covalently bonded to act as a single unit. They always carry some charge.

Examples of polyatomic ions are: OH^- known as hydroxide ion, SO_4^{2-} known as sulfate ion

We are given a compound NaHCO_3 having 2 ions which are Na^+ and HCO_3^-. these ions are named as sodium ions and hydrogen carbonate ions.

Therefore, the correct option is 2.

Hybridization of NH3​
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

Sp3 hybridization

Explanation:

The NH3 molecule, which consists of one lone pairs and three bond pair of electron on its valance shell due to lone pair bond pair repulsion makes bond angle of 107.5°resulting distorted tetrahedral geometry.

Hybridization =no. of bond pair +lone pair=3+1=4=sp3 hybridization

3. Determine the Zeff value of Uranium, also indicate (based on your answer with mathematical calculations) which electron will
Ilya [14]

Explanation:

Electronic configuration of uranium is given below -

1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶3d¹⁰4s²4p⁶4d¹⁰5s²5p⁶4f¹⁴5d¹⁰6s²6p⁶5f³6d¹7s2²

Effective nuclear charge (Z eff) = Atomic number (Z) - Shielding constant (S)

<u> Value of Shielding constant (S) can be calculated by using slater's rule : </u>

S = 1 (0.35) + 9 (0.85) + 81 (1.00)

S = 0.35 + 7.65 + 81.00

S = 89

So,

Zeff = Z - S

Zeff = 92 - 89

<u> Zeff = 3 </u>

Hence, Effective nuclear charge (Zeff) of uranium = <u>3 </u>

5s electron is closest to the nucleus.
