where 1s, 2s, and 2p are the occupied subshells, and the superscript "2" is the number of electrons in each of these subshells.

Use the rules for determining electron configurations to write the electron configuration for Ca. Express your answer in complete form in order of orbital filling. For example, 1s22s2 should be entered as 1s^22s^2.

Answer: 1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^2

Explanation:

Electronic configuration represents the total number of electrons that a neutral element contains. We add all the superscripts to know the number of electrons in an atom.

The electrons are filled according to Afbau's rule in order of increasing energies where orbital with higher value of (n+l) has higher energy as compared to orbital having lower (n+l) value. Thus the electronic configuration for calcium with atomic number of 20 and hence containing 20 electrons is :

Ca:20:1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^2

Types of osmosis...in 50 words​
ICE Princess25 [194]

<h3>Types of Osmosis</h3>

Osmosis is of two types:

Endosmosis– When a substance is placed in a hypotonic solution, the solvent molecules move inside the cell and the cell becomes turgid or undergoes deplasmolysis. This is known as endosmosis.

Exosmosis– When a substance is placed in a hypertonic solution, the solvent molecules move outside the cell and the cell becomes flaccid or undergoes plasmolysis. This is known as exosmosis.

Calcium hydroxide is a strong base but is not very soluble ( Ksp = 5.02 X 10-6 ). What is the pH of a saturated solution of Ca(O
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer : The pH of a saturated solution is, 12.33

Explanation : Given,

K_{sp} = 5.02\times 10^{-6}

First we have to calculate the solubility of OH^- ion.

The balanced equilibrium reaction will be:

Ca(OH)_2\rightleftharpoons Ca^{2+}+2OH^-

Let the solubility will be, 's'.

The concentration of Ca^{2+} ion = s

The concentration of OH^- ion = 2s

The expression for solubility constant for this reaction will be,

K_{sp}=[Ca^{2+}][OH^-]^2

Let the solubility will be, 's'

K_{sp}=(s)\times (2s)^2

K_{sp}=(4s)^3

Now put the value of K_[sp} in this expression, we get the solubility.

5.02\times 10^{-6}=(4s)^3

s=1.079\times 10^{-2}M

The concentration of Ca^{2+} ion = s = 1.079\times 10^{-2}M

The concentration of OH^- ion = 2s = 2\times (1.079\times 10^{-2}M)=2.158\times 10^{-2}M

First we have to calculate the pOH.

pOH=-\log [OH^-]

pOH=-\log (2.158\times 10^{-2})

pOH=1.67

Now we have to calculate the pH.

pH+pOH=14\\\\pH=14-pOH\\\\pH=14-1.67=12.33

Therefore, the pH of a saturated solution is, 12.33

A very simple assumption for the specific heat of a crystalline solid is that each vibrational mode of the solid acts independen
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

4.7 kJ/kmol-K

Explanation:

Using the Debye model the specific heat capacity in kJ/kmol-K

c = 12π⁴Nk(T/θ)³/5

where N = avogadro's number = 6.02 × 10²³ mol⁻¹, k = 1.38 × 10⁻²³ JK⁻¹, T = room temperature = 298 K and θ = Debye temperature = 2219 K  

Substituting these values into c we have

c = 12π⁴Nk(T/θ)³/5  

= 12π⁴(6.02 × 10²³ mol⁻¹)(1.38 × 10⁻²³ JK⁻¹)(298 K/2219 K)³/5

= 9710.83(298 K/2219 K)³/5

= 1942.17(0.1343)³

= 4.704 J/mol-K

= 4.704 × 10⁻³ kJ/10⁻³ kmol-K

= 4.704 kJ/kmol-K

≅ 4.7 kJ/kmol-K

So, the specific heat of diamond in kJ/kmol-K is 4.7 kJ/kmol-K
