Answer:
X represents oxygen and Y represents carbon dioxide.
Explanation:
Because in respiration, you consume oxygen and make carbon dioxide whereas, in photosynthesis, the equation is reversed and you use carbon dioxide and make oxygen and glucose.
Answer:
1) Ca: [Ar]4s²
2) Pm: [Xe]6s²4f⁵
Explanation:
1) Ca:
Its atomic number is 20. So it has 20 protons and 20 electrons.
Since it is in the row (period) 4 the noble gas before it is Ar, and the electron configuration is that of Argon whose atomic number is 18.
So, you have two more electrons (20 - 18 = 2) to distribute.
Those two electrons go the the orbital 4s.
Finally, the electron configuration is [Ar] 4s².
2) Pm
The atomic number of Pm is 61, so it has 61 protons and 61 electrons.
Pm is in the row (period) 6. So, the noble gas before Pm is Xe.
The atomic number of Xe is 54.
Therefore, you have to distribute 61 - 54 = 7 electrons on the orbitals 6s and 4f.
The resultant distribution for Pm is: [Xe]6s² 4f⁵.
The term isoelectronic atoms means that if the given atoms are neutral, they would have the same number of electrons, which is relative to their sizes. Ions with positive charges are called cations, losing electrons. On the other hand, ions with negative charges are called anions, gaining electrons. The more electrons that the atoms have, the bigger it is in size. Hence, the arrangement of the radii of the atoms would have to be,
e²⁺, d⁺, c , b⁻, a⁻
The arrangement is from smallest to largest.
