Answer:

Below.

Explanation:

1. At quantum number 3 it is further from the positive protons in the nucleus.

2. The inner electrons have a shielding effect on the attraction from the protons in the nucleus.

Answer: An electron having a quantum number of one is closer to the nucleus

Explanation:

The Bohr model relies on electrostatic attraction between the nucleus and orbital electron. Hence, the closer an electron is to the nucleus the more closely it is held by the nucleus and the lesser its energy (the more stable the electron is and the more difficult it is to ionize it). The farther an electron is from the nucleus ( in higher shells or energy levels), the less the electrostatic attraction of such electron to the nucleus due to shielding effect. Hence it is less tightly held.

What is the specific heat of a substance if 6527 J are required to raise the temperature of a 312 g sample by 15 degrees Celsius
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

1.395J/g°C

Explanation:

The following were obtained from the question:

Q = 6527J

M = 312g

ΔT = 15°C

C =?

Q = MCΔT

C = Q/MΔT

C = 6527/(312 x 15)

C = 1.395J/g°C

The specific heat capacity of the substance is 1.395J/g°C

Calcium has an atomic number of 20. How many electrons of a calcium atom are involved in chemical bonding?
NARA [144]

The answer is 2 electrons.


The electron configuration of calcium is 2:8:8:2

Calcium has two electrons in its outermost shell. These are its valence electrons and are the ones used in bonding with other elements.  Valence electrons of an atom are those electrons that are in its outer energy shell or that are available for bonding.

Calcium is a metal. When metals react with non-metals, electrons are transferred from the metal atoms to the non-metal atoms forming ions. The resulting compound is known  as an ionic compound.

For example, when calcium metal reacts with chlorine gas,   calcium gives up its two valence electrons and Chlorine accepts them resulting in a new substance called calcium chloride in which the two elements have ended up forming ionic bonds.
