What is the total number of valence electrons in a carbon atom in the ground state

Chemistry

Carbon will have 4 valence electrons.  It will have 2 in the p orbital and 2 in the s orbital.  You can see this when you find the noble gas configuration of carbon which is [He]2s²2p² showing that carbon has 4 valence electrons.
I hope this helps.  Let me know if anything is unclear.

Ann [662]

Answer:

NiCO3 (s) + 2H+ (aq) → H2O (l) + CO2 (g) + Ni2+ (aq)

Explanation:

To write the complete ionic equation:

1. Start with a balanced molecular equation.

2. Break all soluble strong electrolytes (compounds with (aq) beside them) into their ions

3. indicate the correct formula and charge of each ion

4. indicate the correct number of each ion

5. write (aq) after each ion

6. Bring down all compounds with (s), (l), or (g) unchanged.

Calculate the total pressure in a 10.0 liter flask at 27°C of a sample of gas that contains 6.0 grams of hydrogen, 15.2 grams of
motikmotik

Answer:

The total pressure is 27.8 atm

Explanation:

From the ideal gas equation,

PV = nRT

P (total pressure) = nRT/V

n (total moles of gases) = (6/1 moles of hydrogen) + (15.2/14 moles of nitrogen) + (16.8/4 moles of helium) = 6+1.1+4.2 = 11.3 moles

R = 0.082057L.atm/gmol.K, T = 27°C = 27+273K = 300K, V = 10L

P = 11.3×0.082057×300/10 = 27.8 atm
