Answer:

Electronic Configuration of calcium ion: Ca²⁺

1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶

Explanation:

Calcium belong to group IIA and known as alkaline earth metals.

  • it have two electrons in outer most orbital.
  • these outer two electrons are involve in bonding
  • calcium lose these two electron and form cation
  • cation have 2+ charge
  • calcium have total twenty electrons

Electronic Configuration of calcium atom: ²⁰Ca

1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s²

When calcium ion is form it loses two electron and have 2+ charge on it.

and have total of 18 electrons

So,

Electronic Configuration of calcium ion: Ca²⁺

the last filled orbital will be 3p⁶

1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶

What kind of hair shampoo can more efficiently clean hair,acidic or alkaline,why?
777dan777 [17]
All shampoos have alkaline already in them for cleaning your hair, although a strong amount of alkaline can damage your hair. The water also has alkaline in it already. While the alternative product is more acidic it does not clean as well. Overall Alkaline is best for the cleaning of hair.

Determine whether a gas sample was composed of hydrogen or oxygen.
Nuetrik [128]
The test for this is fairly simple.
We take a glowing match or splint near the gas sample, if the glow intensifies, oxygen is present. 
If a lit splint or match goes out with a popping sound, this means that hydrogen is present.

State Hund's rule.
loris [4]

Answer:

C. The lowest-energy electron configuration of an atom has the maximum number of unpaired electrons, all of which have the same spin, in degenerate orbitals.

Explanation:

The Hund's rule is used to place the electrons in the orbitals is it states that:

1. Every orbital in a sublevel is singly occupied before any orbital is doubly occupied;

2. All of the electrons in singly occupied orbitals have the same spin.

So, the electrons first seek to fill the orbitals with the same energy (degenerate orbitals) before paring with electrons in a half-filled orbital. Orbitals doubly occupied have greater energy, so the lowest-energy electron configuration of an atom has the maximum number of unpaired electrons, and for the second statement, they have the same spin.

The other alternatives are correct, but they're not observed by the Hund's rule.
