Answer:

A S [Ne]3s³3p⁴ instead of [Ne]3s²3p⁴

Explanation:

Hello,

To find the incorrect electronics configuration, we have to refer back to our periodic table or simply writing the electronic configuration of each element down follow principles guiding it such as Aufbau principle and Hund's rule.

a) S = [Ne] 3s³ 3p⁴ instead of [Ne] 3s²3p⁴

Option A is wrong.

S orbital can only accommodate a maximum of 2 electrons and in this case, 3s orbital is carrying 3 electrons. This has violated the rule.

b) Sn = [Kr] 5s² 4d¹⁰ 5p²

Option B is correct

c) Rb = [Kr] 5s¹

Option c is correct

d) V = 4s² 3d³

Option D is correct

e) I = [Kr] 5s² 4d¹⁰ 5p⁵

From the above, we can see that the answer is option A = S

How do you balance a chemical equation?
Marianna [84]

Answer:

When you balance a chemical equation you change coefficients.You never change subscripts. A coefficient is a whole number multiplier. To balance a chemical equation you add the coefficients to make sure there are the same number of atoms on each side of the arrow.

Calculate the pressure exerted by 66.0 g of CO2
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

The pressure exerted by 66.0 g of CO₂ gas at -14.5°C that occupies a volume of 50.0 L is 0.636 atm.

How do we calculate pressure?

Pressure of any gas will be calculated by using the ideal gas equation as:

PV = nRT, where

P = pressure of gas = ?

V = volume of gas = 50L

R = universal gas constant = 0.082 L.atm/K.mol

T = temperature of gas = -14.5°C = 258.65 K

n is moles of gas and it will be calculated as:

n = W/M, where

W = given mass of CO₂ = 66g

M = molar mass of CO₂ = 44 g/mol

n = 66/44 = 1.5 moles

On putting values we get

P = (1.5)(0.082)(258.65) / (50)

P = 0.636 atm

Hence required pressure is 0.636 atm.

a.) The diameter of a uranium atom is 3.50 Å . Express the radius of a uranium atom in both meters and nanometers. b.) How many
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

Th answer to your question is:

a)  3.5 x10⁻¹⁰ meters; 0.35 nm

b) 6857142.86 atoms

c) Volume = 2.06 x 10⁻²³ cm³

Explanation:

a) data

Uranium atoms = 3.5A°

meters

           1 A° ----------------  1 x 10 ⁻¹⁰ m

         3.5A° ---------------  x

 x = 3.5(1 x10⁻¹⁰)/ 1 = 3.5 x10⁻¹⁰ meters

          1 A° ------------------ 0.1 nm

        3.5 A° ---------------- 0.35 nm

b) 2.4 mm

Divide 2,40 mm / uranium diameter

But, first convert 3,5A° to mm   = 3.5 x 10⁻⁷ mm

# of uranium atoms = 2.4 / 3.5 x 10⁻⁷ = 6857142.86

c) volume in cubic cm

Convert 3.5A° to cm  = 3.5 x 10⁻⁸

Volume = 4/3 πr³ = (4/3) (3.14)(1.7 x10⁻⁸)³

Volume = 2.06 x 10⁻²³ cm³

How do I know what to do and can you help me because I really need it I am failing chemistry because it is too hard.
Arlecino [84]

Exothermic:

An Exothermic reaction is a chemical reaction that expels energy in the form of heat/light. Everything a Endothermic does not do. Pretty simple for this one

reactants → products + energy.

For future reference - Exo means release, thermic means heat.

<u>Energy is a Reactant </u>

<u />

<u>_________________________________________________________</u>

Endothermic:

An Endothermic reaction essentially is draining the heat energy from anything its its surroundings. Usually its just heat but can also be salt dissolving it water or ice melting. Another example would be frost on your windshield evaporating.

It is the exact opposite of an Exothermic reaction.

<u>Energy is a Product</u>
