Answer:

The charges of the positive and negative copper ions cancel each other out. When a copper atom loses electrons, it also loses a corresponding number of protons.The copper atoms exchange neutrons instead of electrons

Using complete subshell notation (not abbreviations, 1s 22s 22p 6 , and so forth), predict the electron configuration of each of

dybincka [34]

Answer: The electronic configuration of the elements are written below.

Explanation:

Electronic configuration is defined as the representation of electrons around the nucleus of an atom.

Number of electrons in an atom is determined by the atomic number of that atom.

For the given options:

Option a: Carbon (C)

Carbon is the 6th element of the periodic table. The number of electrons in carbon atom are 6.

The electronic configuration of carbon is $1s^22s^22p^2$

Option b: Phosphorus (P)

Phosphorus is the 15th element of the periodic table. The number of electrons in phosphorus atom are 15.

The electronic configuration of phosphorus is $1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^3$

Option c: Vanadium (V)

Vanadium is the 23rd element of the periodic table. The number of electrons in vanadium atom are 23.

The electronic configuration of vanadium is $1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d^3$

Option d: Antimony (Sb)

Antimony is the 51st element of the periodic table. The number of electrons in antimony atom are 51.

The electronic configuration of antimony is $1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d^{10}4p^65s^24d^{10}5p^3$

Option e: Samarium (Sm)

Samarium is the 62nd element of the periodic table. The number of electrons in samarium atom are 62.

The electronic configuration of samarium is $1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d^{10}4p^65s^24d^{10}5p^66s^24f^6$

Hence, the electronic configuration of the elements are written above.

A 3.452 g sample containing an unknown amount of a Ce(IV) salt is dissolved in 250.0-mL of 1 M H2SO4. A 25.00 mL aliquot is anal

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

1,812 wt%

Explanation:

The reactions for this titration are:

2Ce⁴⁺ + 3I⁻ → 2Ce³⁺ + I₃⁻

I₃⁻ + 2S₂O₃⁻ → 3I⁻ + S₄O₆²⁻

The moles in the end point of S₂O₃⁻ are:

0,01302L×0,03428M Na₂S₂O₃ = 4,463x10⁻⁴ moles of S₂O₃⁻. As 2 moles of S₂O₃⁻ react with 1 mole of I₃⁻, the moles of I₃⁻ are:

4,463x10⁻⁴ moles of S₂O₃⁻× $\frac{1molI_{3}^-}{2molS_{2}O_{3}^-}$ = 2,2315x10⁻⁴ moles of I₃⁻

As 2 moles of Ce⁴⁺ produce 1 mole of I₃⁻, the moles of Ce⁴⁺ are:

2,2315x10⁻⁴ moles of I₃⁻× $\frac{2molCe^{4+}}{1molI_{3}^-}$ = 4,463x10⁻⁴ moles of Ce(IV). These moles are:

4,463x10⁻⁴ moles of Ce(IV)× $\frac{140,116g}{1mol}$ = 0,0625 g of Ce(IV)

As the sample has a 3,452g, the weight percent is:

0,0625g of Ce(IV) / 3,452g × 100 = 1,812 wt%

I hope it helps!

1. In the investigation of an unknown alcohol, there was a positive Jones test and a negative Lucas test. What deductions may be

pogonyaev

Answer:

1. When observing a positive test for the jones reagent and negative for the Lucas test, it indicates that it is in the presence of a primary alcohol.

Jones reagent behaves like a strong oxidant, where it transforms the primary alcohols into carboxylic acids and the secondary alcohols into ketones. Tertiary alcohols do not react.

With the Lucas test, tertiary alcohols react immediately producing turbidity, while secondary alcohols do so in five minutes. Primary alcohols do not react significantly with Lucas reagent at room temperature.

2. No reaction (See the attached drawing)
