5 electrons

Boron atomic number 5 has five electrons in its ground state.

Commonly Boron will lose 3 electrons leaving 2 electrons in its most common ionic form.

Explanation:

The atomic number gives the number of protons. Protons which have a positive charge are balanced by an equal number of electrons in a neutral atom.

Boron number 5 has five protons and therefore as a neutral atom also has five electrons.

Boron has an electron configuration of

1s22s22p1

The most stable electron configuration for Boron is

1s2

+ 3 charges. By losing three electrons Boron can achieve the stable electron structure of Helium

Answer : The molar concentration of sucrose in the tea is, 0.0549 M

Explanation : Given,

Mass of sucrose = 3.765 g

Volume of solution = 0.200 L

Molar mass of sucrose = 342.3 g/mole

Molarity : It is defined as the number of moles of solute present in one liter of volume of solution.

Formula used :

$\text{Molarity}=\frac{\text{Mass of sucrose}}{\text{Molar mass of sucrose}\times \text{Volume of solution (in L)}}$

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get:

$\text{Molarity}=\frac{3.765g}{342.3g/mole\times 0.200L}=0.0549mole/L=0.0549M$

Therefore, the molar concentration of sucrose in the tea is, 0.0549 M

The energy of a photon needed to cause ejection of an electron from a photoemissive metal is expressed as the sum of the binding

slega [8]

Answer:

$Binding\ energy=43.43\times 10^{-20}\ J$

Explanation:

Using the expression for the photoelectric effect as:

$E=h\nu_0+\frac {1}{2}\times m\times v^2$

Also, $E=\frac {h\times c}{\lambda}$

$\nu_0=\frac {c}{\lambda_0}$

Applying the equation as:

$\frac {h\times c}{\lambda}=\frac {hc}{\lambda_0}+\frac {1}{2}\times m\times v^2$

Where,

h is Plank's constant having value $6.626\times 10^{-34}\ Js$

c is the speed of light having value $3\times 10^8\ m/s$

$\lambda$ is the wavelength of the light being bombarded

Given, $\lambda=4.00\times 10^{-7}\ m$

$\frac {hc}{\lambda_0}$ is the binding energy or threshold energy

$\frac {1}{2}\times m\times v^2$ is the kinetic energy of the electron emitted. = $6.26\times 10^{-20}\ J$

Thus, applying values as:

$\frac{h\times c}{\lambda}=Binding\ Energy+Kinetic\ Energy$

$\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{4.00\times 10^{-7}}\ J=Binding\ Energy+6.26\times 10^{-20}\ J$

$\frac{19.878}{10^{19}\times \:4}\ J=Binding\ Energy+6.26\times 10^{-20}\ J$

$49.69\times 10^{-20}\ J=Binding\ Energy+6.26\times 10^{-20}\ J$

$Binding\ energy=43.43\times 10^{-20}\ J$

(7) A 955 gram piece of tungsten metal is heated from 18°C to 100°C. The amount of heat absorbed

Ber [7]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: Cp = 0.129 J/g°C

Explanation:

Data

mass = 955 g of tungsten

T1 = 18°C

T2 = 100°C

Q = 10180 Joules

Cp = ?

Formula

Q = mCpΔT

Clear Cp from the equation

Cp = Q / mΔT

Substitution

Cp = 10180 / (955(100-18))

Cp = 10180 / (955(82))

Cp = 10180 / 78310

Cp = 0.129 J/g°C
