Answer: A photon of energy was released.

Explanation: The energy of the orbitals keep on increasing as the size of the orbitals keep on increasing or the value of n keeps on increasing.

The electrons absorb energy when they are irradiated or put at high temperatures and move to higher energy states. The electrons then get back to their ground state by releasing energy in the form of radiations. Thus when an electron move from n = 2 to shell n = 1, the absorbed energy is given off in form of photons of energy.

Energy is released or absorbed in the form of discrete packets of energy called as photons.

For the reaction represented by the equation Fe + H2O ® Fe2O3 + H2, how many moles of iron(III) oxide are produced from 285 g of
schepotkina [342]

Balanced equation: 2Fe + 3H2O → Fe2O3 +3H2

Convert g to mols:

285/55.845 = 5.1034 mols

Mole ratio of Iron and Iron (III) Oxide: 2:1

5.1034/2 = 2.5517 mols

What’s the reaction type of aqueous magnesium sulfate + aqueous sodium carbonate?
IrinaK [193]

Answer: Double displacement reaction

Explanation:

Double displacement reaction is defined as the reaction where exchange of ions takes place.

The salts which are soluble in water are designated by symbol (aq) and those which are insoluble in water and remain in solid form are represented by (s) after their chemical formulas.

The chemical reaction between aqueous magnesium sulfate and aqueous sodium carbonate is represented as:

MgSO_4(aq)+Na_2CO_3(aq)\rightarrow Na_2SO_4(aq)+MgCO_3(s)

To fulfill the octet rule electron sharing leads to ____ electrons around each atom?
Dimas [21]
D. 8

You can predict it from it's name "Octet" means Eight. Atom must have that number of electron to have a stable structure!

Hope this helps!
