Chemistry
1 answer:
Sladkaya [172]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Part A:

Charge is P^{3-}

Configuration is 1s^2 2s^22p^63s^23p^6

Part B:

Charge is Mg^{2+}

Configuration is 1s^2 2s^22p^6

Part C:

Charge is Se^{2-}

Configuration is 1s^2 2s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d^{10}4p^6

Explanation:

Monatomic ions:

These ions consist of only one atom. If they have more than one atom then they are poly atomic ions.

Examples of Mono Atomic ions: Na^+, Cl^-, Ca^2^+

Part A:

For P:

Phosphorous (P) has 15 electrons so it require 3 more electrons to stabilize itself.

Charge is P^{3-}

Full ground-state electron configuration of the mono atomic ion:

1s^2 2s^22p^63s^23p^6

Part B:

For Mg:

Magnesium (Mg) has 12 electrons so it requires 2 electrons to lose to achieve stable configuration.

Charge is Mg^{2+}

Full ground-state electron configuration of the mono atomic ion:

1s^2 2s^22p^6

Part C:

For Se:

Selenium (Se) has 34 electrons and requires two electrons to be stable.

Charge is Se^{2-}

Full ground-state electron configuration of the mono atomic ion:

1s^2 2s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d^{10}4p^6

A container of gas is initially at 0.25 atm and 0 ˚C. What will the pressure be at 125 ˚C?
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

0.37atm

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial pressure  = 0.25atm

Initial temperature  = 0°C  = 273K

Final temperature  = 125°C  = 125 + 273  = 398K

Unknown:

Final pressure  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use a derivative of the combined gas law;

           \frac{P1}{T1}  = \frac{P2}{T2}

  P and T are pressure and temperature

  1 and 2 are initial and final values

        \frac{0.25}{273}   = \frac{P2}{398}  

         P2  = 0.37atm

Warm air _____.
svp [43]

Answer:

cools as it rises, then sinks back down

Explanation:

The movement of air is a convection current. Convection currents occur when warm air rises, cools down, and sinks due to gained density, replacing the warm air closer to the ground, creating a cycle.

How many MOLECULES are in 50.0 grams of lithium phosphate?
Ray Of Light [21]
Answer: 2.60 x 10^23 molecules


50.0 grams x (1 mol/115.79 grams) = 0.431816219 moles

0.431816219 mol x (6.02 x 10^23 molecules/1 mol) = 2.599533638 x 10^23 molecules (final answer is rounded)
