Answer:

The acid (-COOH) functional group of aspirin causes it to irritate the stomach

Explanation:

Aspirin is acetylsalicylic acid with a molecular formula C₉H₈O₈.

It is a cyclic compound composed of a benzene ring along with 2 functional groups: the carboxylic acid (-COOH) and acetyl group (-OCOCH3)

The most common side effect of consuming aspirin is an upset stomach. This is due to the acid functional group which can irritate the stomach lining.

The functional group of the aspirin in which causes this compound to cause a person’s stomach to be irritated is most likely because of the acetyl salicylic acid in which its acid portion of this drug causes the person’s stomach to feel stomach irritation.

Identify the neutral element represented by this excited-state electron configuration, then write the ground-state electron conf
sineoko [7]

Answer:

1s² 2s² 2p³

Nitrogen

Explanation:

Excited state configuration: 1s² 2s² 2p² 3s¹

Unknown:

Ground state configuration = ?

Element symbol = ?

Solution:

Let us start by understanding what a ground state configuration entails:

A ground state configuration shows the lowest allowed energy levels of an atom. The excited state denotes when electrons have moved to higher energy levels away from their ground state.

The superscript in the configuration depicts the number of electrons in each of the sublevels.

We can use this number to identify the atom we are dealing with:

 Total number of electrons = 2 + 2 + 2 + 1 = 7 electrons

The element with 7 electrons on the periodic table is Nitrogen.

Now, the ground state configuration:

In writing the electronic configuration of an atom, certain rules must be complied with.

  • Aufbau's principle states that the sublevels with lower energies are filled up before those with higher energies. The order of filling is:

        1s 2s 2p 3s 3p 4s etc

To fill the s-orbital = 2 electrons

                p-orbital = 6 electrons

The outermost shell electrons are usually the ones excited.

  Now, the 3s¹ shell is an excited one taking 1 electron from the second energy level;

 The ground state configuration is 1s² 2s² 2p³

Water flows over Niagara Falls at the average rate of 2,400,000 kg/s, and the average height of the falls is about 50 m. Knowing
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

1) The power of Niagara Falls is 1.176 × 10⁹ W

2) The number of 15 W LED light bulbs it could power is 78.4 × 10⁶ light bulbs

Explanation:

1) The Niagara falls water mass flow rate = 2,400,000 kg/s

The height of the fall = 50 meters

The gravitational potential energy = Mass (kg) × height (m) × gravity (9.8 m/s²)

The power = The energy converted per second = Mass flow rate (kg/s) × height (m) × gravity (9.8 m/s²)

Therefore;

The power of Niagara Falls= 2,400,000 kg/s × 50 m ×9.8 m/s²= 1.176 × 10⁹ W

The power of Niagara Falls = 1.176 × 10⁹ W

2) The number, n, of 15 W LED light bulbs it could power is given by the relation;

n × 15 W = 1.176 × 10⁹ W

∴ n = 1.176 × 10⁹ W/(15 W) = 78.4 × 10⁶ light bulbs

The number of 15 W LED light bulbs it could power = 78.4 × 10⁶ light bulbs.

How many atoms does 2.0 moles of He represent
Rudiy27

We use the following formula to calculate the number of atoms:

n (mol) = N(number of atoms) / NA

N(He) = n(mol) · NA

N(He) = 2,0 moles · 6.02·1023 = 12.04·1023 atoms
