Answer:

2. (C) K⁺; 3. (E) Hg⁺; 4. Hg⁺

Explanation:

We must first write the electron configurations of the different species.

(A) Fe²⁺

Fe:     [Ar]4s²3d⁶

Fe²⁺: [Ar]3d⁶

When removing electrons from a transition metal ion, you remove the s electrons first.

(B) Cl

Cl: [Ne]3s²3p⁵

(C) K⁺

K:   [Ar]4s

K⁺: [Ar]

(D) Cs

Cs: [Xe]6s

(E) Hg⁺

Hg:   [Xe]6s²4f¹⁴5d¹⁰

Hg⁺: [Xe]6s4f¹⁴5d¹⁰

2. K⁺ has a noble gas configuration

3. Hg⁺ has electrons in f orbitals.

4. The electron configuration of Au is [Xe]6s4f¹⁴5d¹⁰, not [Xe]6s²4f¹⁴5d⁹, because a filled d subshell is more stable than a filled s subshell.

Thus, Hg⁺ is isoelectronic with Au.

Zn(s) + HCl(aq) → ZnCl2(aq) + H2(g) ↑
WINSTONCH [101]

Hey there!

Zn + HCl → ZnCl₂ + H₂

First, balance Cl.

1 on the left, 2 on the right. Add a coefficient of 2 in front of HCl.

Zn + 2HCl → ZnCl₂ + H₂

Next, balance H.

2 on the left, 2 on the right. Already balanced.

Lastly, balance Zn.

1 on the left, 1 on the right. Already balanced.

Our final balanced equation:

Zn + 2HCl → ZnCl₂ + H₂

Hope this helps!

How does the emission spectrum support the idea of quantized energy level
Scrat [10]

Answer:

When those atoms are given energy, the electrons absorb the energy and move to a higher energy level. ... These energy levels of the electrons in atoms are quantized, meaning again that the electron must move from one energy level to another in discrete steps rather than continuously
