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

"A base is a substance that produce OH-ions." Which definition of a base is this?
Andru [333]

Answer:

C. Arrhenius

An Arrhenius base is a substance that dissociates in water to form hydroxide (OH–) ions. In other words, a base increases the concentration of OH– ions in an aqueous solution.

What is the theoretical yield of fluorenone if you oxidize 175 mg of fluorene?
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

  • 602 mg of CO₂ and 94.8 mg of H₂O

Explanation:

The<em> yield</em> is measured by the amount of each product produced by the reaction.

The chemical formula of <em>fluorene</em> is C₁₃H₁₀, and its molar mass is 166.223 g/mol.

The <em>oxidation</em>, also know as combustion, of this hydrocarbon is represented by the following balanced chemical equation:

        2C_{13}H_{10}+31O_2\rightarrow 26CO_2+10H_2O

To calculate the yield follow these steps:

<u>1. Mole ratio</u>

          2molC_{13}H_{10}:31molO_2:26molCO_2:10molH_2O

<u />

<u>2. Convert 175mg of fluorene to number of moles</u>

  • 175mg/times 1g/1,000mg=0.175g

  • Number of moles = mass in grams / molar mass

  • \text{number of moles}=0.175g/166.223g/mol=0.0010528mol

<u>3. Set a proportion for each product of the reaction</u>

a) <u>For CO₂</u>

i) number of moles

         2molC_{10}H_{13}/26molCO_2=0.0010528molC_{10}H{13}/x

x=0.0010528molC_{10}H_{13}\times 26molCO_2/2molC_{10}H_{13}=0.013686molCO_2

ii) mass in grams

The molar mass of CO₂ is 44.01g/mol

  • mass = number of moles × molar mass
  • mass = 0.013686 moles × 44.01 g/mol = 0.602 g = 602mg

b) <u>For H₂O</u>

i) number of moles

0.0010528molC_{10}H_{13}\times10molH_2O/2molC_{10}H_{13}=0.00526molH_2O

ii) mass in grams

The molar mass of H₂O is 18.015g/mol

  • mass = number of moles × molar mass
  • mass = 0.00526 moles × 18.015 g/mol = 0.0948mg = 94.8 mg
