What are valence electrons?

Chemistry
1 answer:
love history [14]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost shell or last energy level of an atom. Valence electrons are electrons in the highest principal energy level. They are electrons that sit on the outermost orbit of an element. They are responsible for bonding and chemical properties of each element

Answer : The volume of O_2(g) produced at standard conditions of temperature and pressure is 0.2422 L

Explanation :

Combined gas law is the combination of Boyle's law, Charles's law and Gay-Lussac's law.

The combined gas equation is,

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}

where,

P_1 = initial pressure of O_2 gas = (740-22.4) torr = 717.6 torr

P_2 = final pressure of O_2 gas at STP= 760 torr

V_1 = initial volume of O_2 gas = 280 mL

V_2 = final volume of O_2 gas at STP = ?

T_1 = initial temperature of O_2 gas = 25^oC=273+25=298K

T_2 = final temperature of O_2 gas = 0^oC=273+0=273K

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

\frac{717.6torr\times 280mL}{298K}=\frac{760torr\times V_2}{273K}

V_2=242.2mL=0.2422L

Therefore, the volume of O_2(g) produced at standard conditions of temperature and pressure is 0.2422 L

<u>Answer 2 :</u> The given electronic configuration for a neutral atom of phosphorous in its ground state is incorrect.

Explanation :

A neutral atom of phosphorous has 15 electrons.

The given electronic configuration is incorrect.

The reason is, According to Aufbau principle, the electrons will be first filled in the sub-shell having lower orbital energy. As from the given configuration, 3p sub-shell has lower orbital energy than 4s sub-shell. So, the electrons will be filled in 3p sub-shell first. Hence, the ground state electronic configuration of neutral atom of phosphorous is,

1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^3

<u>Answer 3 :</u>

Element                     Rubidium              Magnesium                Aluminium

Symbol                             Rb                         Mg                              Al

Group number                  1                             2                               13

Number of valence          1                             2                                3

electrons

The order of general reactivity on the basis of number of valence electrons.

Rb > Mg > Al

Reason : The reactivity is determined by the number of electrons present in the outermost shell that means the element which have 1 valence electron will be more reactive because they can easily lose electrons.

How many atoms are found in 4.75 moles of Fe?
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Explanation:

a)

Number of atoms = ?

moles of Fe = 4.75

-Use proportions to solve this problem

                            1 mol of Fe --------------------- 6.023 x 10²³ atoms

                          4.75 moles  ---------------------  x

                            x = (4.75 x 6.023 x 10²³) / 1

                            x = 2.86 x 10²⁴ / 1

  Number of atoms = 2.86 x 10²⁴

b)

Number of moles = ?

moles of 1.058 moles of H₂O

I think this question is incorrect, maybe you wish to know the number of atoms or grams of H₂O.

c)

Number of atoms = ?

moles of Fe = 0.759

                       1 mol of Fe ------------------ 6.023 x 10²³ atoms

                       0.759 moles ---------------  x

                        x = (0.759 x 6.023 x 10²³) / 1

                        x = 4.57 x 10²³ / 1

Number of atoms of Fe = 4.57 x 10²³ atoms

d)

Number of molecules = ?

moles of H₂O = 3.5 moles

                          1 mol of H₂O ------------------ 6.023 x 10²³ molecules

                         3.5 moles       ------------------   x

                          x = (3.5 x 6.023 x 10²³) / 1

                          x = 2.11 x 10²⁴ molecules

Number of molecules = 2.11 x 10²⁴
