Answer:Cr3+ and V2+

Explanation:

Cd and Hg belong to group 12 which is sometimes referred to as post transition elements. They possess a filled d subshell (d10). Remember that the colour of transition elements is attributed to the presence of partially filled d orbitals leading to transition between the three degenerate lower energy t2g orbitals and two higher energy degenerate eg orbitals. If the element has a d10 configuration, such transition is impossible, hence its ions will be colourless.

Answer:

Cr3+ is green and V2+ is purple. Cr3+ and V2+ are both d3 so there can be a lot of movement between energy levels to produce colored light. Cd2+ and Hg2+ are both d10 (full d orbital, much less electron movement).

As you move from left to right across a period, what happens to the atomic radil?

egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

Moving Across a Period

Moving from left to right across a period, the atomic radius decreases. The nucleus of the atom gains protons moving from left to right, increasing the positive charge of the nucleus and increasing the attractive force of the nucleus upon the electrons

olga2289 [7]

2H2(g) + O2(g) → 2H2O(1) 0 260 g 0.2068 0.180 g 2008 When 45.0 g of CH4 reacts with excess O2, the actual yield of CO2 is 118 g. What is the percent yield? CHA(g) + 2O2(g) - CO2(g) + 2H2O(g) 73.6% 67.9% 95.2% 86.4% For the reaction: 2503(g) + 790 kcal - 25(s) + 3O2(g), how many kcal are needed to form 1.5 moles O2(g)? 790 kcal 395 kcal 2370 kcal 411 kcal When 3 moles of Ny are mixed with 5 moles of H2 the limiting reactant is N2(g) + 3H2(g) - 2NH3(g) H2 NH3 ОООО H20 O N₂
