The electronic configuration of an element is given below.

Chemistry
1 answer:
drek231 [11]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

C. It is reactive because it must gain two electrons to have a full outermost energy level.  

Step-by-step explanation:

The electron configuration of this element ends in 2s²2p⁴.

A filled energy level would end in 2s²2p⁶.

The element will be reactive, because it must gain electrons to have a full energy level, and it needs two more electrons to do this.

The temperature of a sample of iron with a mass of 10.0 g changed from 50.4°C to 25.0°C with the release of 47 calories of heat.
hichkok12 [17]
Q  =  mc(θ₂-θ₁)

47 calories =  10 g *c*(50.4 - 25)

47cal = 10*c* 25.4

47 /(10*25.4) = c

0.185 = c

Specific heat of iron = 0.185 cal/g°C

WILL MARK BRANLIEST FOR CORRECT ANSWER! Given the following equation, write the expression for its relative rate.
USPshnik [31]

\tt -\dfrac{1}{2}\dfrac{d[N_2O]}{dt}=\dfrac{1}{2}\dfrac{d[N_2]}{dt}=\dfrac{1}{1}\dfrac{d[O_2]}{dt}

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Reaction

2N2O(g) — 2N2(g) + O2(g)

Required

relative rate

Solution

The reaction rate (v) shows the change in the concentration of the substance (changes in addition to concentrations for reaction products or changes in concentration reduction for reactants) per unit time.

so the relative rates for the reaction above are :

\tt -\dfrac{1}{2}\dfrac{d[N_2O]}{dt}=\dfrac{1}{2}\dfrac{d[N_2]}{dt}=\dfrac{1}{1}\dfrac{d[O_2]}{dt}

Which of the following contains both ionic and covalent bonding?
djyliett [7]
I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is the first option. The compound that contains both ionic and covalent bonding is KOH or potassium hydroxide. It contains one covalent<span> (O-H) and one that is </span>ionic<span> (K-O). Hope this helps.</span>
