The p subshell can hold up to eight electrons in an atom (2 points) True or false?

Chemistry

Answer: The statement is false

Explanation:

Electrons occupy a region in atoms known as orbitals or subs hell.  These orbitals include

I) S-orbital: it can occupy a maximum of two electrons

II) P-orbital: It occupies a maximum of six electrons

III) D-orbital: it occupies a maximum of ten electrons

F and G-orbitals as examples of other orbitals present.

A good illustration of the 6 electrons occupied by the P-subshell is seen in Sodium (Na) with atomic number of 11

Na = 1s2, 2S2 2p6, 3s1

Note: extra electrons are transferred to the next orbital

The electron configuration for an atom is 1s 2s 2p2. How many electrons does the atom have?
taurus [48]

Answer:

Four  

Step-by-step explanation:

The <em>superscripts</em> in an electron configuration tell us how many electrons are in a subshell.

If the electron configuration is 1s¹ 2s¹2p², the total number of electrons is

1 + 1 + 2 = 4

The atom contains four electrons.

<em>Note</em>: this atom is in an <em>excited state</em>, because the 1s and 2s subshells can each hold one more electron.

What are the characteristics of an extrusive rock
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Extrusive Rocks. Igneous rocks which form by the crystallization of magma at the surface of the Earth are called extrusive rocks. They are characterized by fine-grained textures because their rapid cooling at or near the surface did not provide enough time for large crystals to grow.

An automobile tire at 30°C has a pressure of 3.00 atm. Temperature decreases to -5°C. Assume that there is no volume change in t
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

P₂ = 2.7 atm

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial temperature = 30°C

Initial pressure = 3.00 atm

Final temperature = -5°C

Final pressure = ?

Solution:

Initial temperature = 30°C = 30 + 273 = 303 K

Final temperature = -5°C = -5 + 273 = 268 K

According to Gay-Lussac Law,

The pressure of given amount of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant volume and number of moles.

Mathematical relationship:

P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂

Now we will put the values in formula:

3.0 atm / 303 K = P₂/268 K

P₂ = 3.0 atm × 268 K / 303 K

P₂ = 804 atm. K /293 K

P₂ = 2.7 atm
