Answer:
Rb: [Kr] 5s
Step-by-step explanation:
Rb is element 37, the first element in Period 5.
It has one valence electron, so its valence electron configuration is 5s.
The noble gas configuration uses the symbol of the previous noble gas as a shortcut for the electron configurations of the inner electrons.
The preceding noble gas is Kr, so the electron configuration is Rb: [Kr] 5s.
Answer:
C₃H₆O₃
Explanation:
Data:
EF = CH₂O
MM = 90. g/mol
Calculations:
EF Mass = (12.01 + 2.016 + 16.00) u = 30.03 u
The molecular formula is an integral multiple of the empirical formula.
MF = (EF)ₙ
MF = (CH₂O)₃ = C₃H₆O₃
Answer:
magnesium + oxygen ----> magnesium oxide
The answer is A. Has a low pH in solution.
The activation energy of a reaction is the minimum energy that must be overcome in order for the reaction to take place. One way of reaching the activation energy is by manipulating the process conditions like pressure or temperature. But the most common method is by adding an enzyme. An enzyme speeds up the rate of the reaction but does not actively take part in it.
An analogy would be pushing heavy wooden block down a slope. No matter how many people push on it, the block won't move because of friction. But if you spill oil on the floor, the block would effortlessly move down the slope. The oil here is like an enzyme in a reaction.
