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

What is the molarity of a sodium chloride solution made by dissolving 4.512 moles to make 2.0 L?
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

2.40 M

Explanation:

The molarity of a solution tells you how many moles of solute you get per liter of solution.

Notice that the problem provides you with the volume of the solution expressed in milliliters,

mL

. Right from the start, you should remember that you must convert this volume to liters by using the conversion factor

1 L

=

10

3

mL

Now, in order to get the number of moles of solute, you must use its molar mass. Now, molar masses are listed in grams per mol,

g mol

−

1

, which means that you're going to have to convert the mass of the sample from milligrams to grams

1 g

=

10

3

mg

Sodium chloride,

NaCl

, has a molar mass of

58.44 g mol

−

1

, which means that your sample will contain

This means that the molarity of the solution will be

The answer is rounded to three sig figs, the number of sig figs you have for the volume of the solution.

What causes element name to change
amm1812
For example, iron plus oxygen can become ferric oxide. Both elements change their names. The change is used to indicate the kind of bonding process that is taking place. When iron and oxygen become ferric oxide, the iron has lost electrons and the oxygen has gained the electrons that iron lost. <span>

How many molecules are there in 79g of Fe2O3? how many atoms is this?
Leya [2.2K]
There are approximately 160 grams in 1 mol of Fe2O3 molecules. Therefore, there would be 79/160= 0.49375 mols of Fe2O3 molecules in 79 grams. There are 5 atoms in total for each molecule of Fe2O3, therefore 79/160 * 5 = 79/32 = 2.46875 mols of atoms.
