A graduated cylinder is filled with 60.0 ml of water. A cube, made of aluminum, is carefully dropped into the cylinder. Aluminum

katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

65 ml

Explanation:

The aluminum will not float , so it will displace a volume of fluid equal to its volume.

13.5 gm / 2.7 gm/ml = 5 ml

the new graduated cylinder measurement will be 60 + 5 = 65 ml

2. The last electron in arsenic occupies a 4p level. What block

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

Arsenic is present in p block and group fifteen of periodic table.

Explanation:

The atomic number of Arsenic is 33.

According to the Aufbau principal in ground state of elements electron first occupy the lower energy level then fill the higher energy levels. We know that there four subshells s, p, d and f. The maximum number of electrons in these subshells can be calculated by following formula:

2 (2l +1 )

and l = 0,1,2,3,....

maximum numbers of electrons in s subshell are,

l=0

2 ( 2(0) + 1)

2

so maximum electrons in s subshell are 2.

maximum numbers of electrons in p subshell are,

l = 1

2 ( 2(1) + 1)

2( 2 + 1)

6

so maximum electrons in p subshell are 6.

maximum numbers of electrons in d subshell are,

l = 2

2 ( 2(2) + 1)

2( 4 + 1)

10

so maximum electrons in d subshell are 10.

maximum numbers of electrons in f subshell are,

l = 3

2 ( 2(3) + 1)

2( 6 + 1)

14

so maximum electrons in f subshell are 14.

Electron first fill 1s subshell then 2s subshell and in this way they goes to higher energy levels.

Electronic configuration of Arsenic:

1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d10, 4p3

The last electron is present in p subshell that's way Arsenic is present in p block of periodic table.

P block elements are non-metals, metals and metalloids. These are thirty five elements. The P-block elements are present on right side of periodic table. There valance electrons are present in P orbital. The p-block metals are shiny and good conductor of heat and electricity. These metal lose the electron which is accept by non metals and form ionic bond. They have high melting points.

Metalloids includes boron, silicon, germanium, arsenic, antimony and tellurium. Metalloids contain both the properties of metals and non metals, Some metalloids are toxic like arsenic.

Most of p-block elements are non metals. They are bad conductor of heat and electricity and have low boiling points.

) Predict the product for the following reaction sequence. A) 2,2-dimethylpropanoic acid B) 3,3-dimethyl-2-butanone C) 2,2-dimet

cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

Option C. 2,2-dimethyl-1-propanol

Explanation:

The first attached picture, is the initial reactant.

Now, what happens in each step?, at first we have an alkyl bromide reacting with Mg/ether. This converts the reactant in a grignard reagent, which is often used in several ketones/ladehydes reactions, and even some acid and esthers.

Now, in the second step, we see this grignard reagent, reacting with CO₂ and H₃O⁺. At first, the grignard reagent will attach to the oxygen of the CO₂ by the MgBr, and the carbonated chain will attach to the carbonile. Then in acid medium, the OMGBr leaves the molecule, and form a carboxylic acid.

Finally, in the last step with LiAlH₄ and water, this compound just reduces the carboxylic acid to a primary alcohol, therefore, the only choice available is option c, 2,2-dimethyl-1-propanol.

See picture 2 below for the drawing.

Hope this helps
