Answer: B) 2 (as indicated by electron distribution shown), but taking into account the real properties of this element, 4,7,8 also occur (see below).
Explanation:
This is the electron complement/atomic number of ruthenium, which actually has the structure [Kr] 5s1 4d7
Nevertheless, Ru does not form Ru(I) compounds and few Ru(II) compounds (RuCl2, RuBr2, RuI2). It also forms Ru(III)Cl3 and a larger number of Ru(IV) compounds, e.g. RuO2, RuS2. It also forms RuO4
First write the molecular equation with states:
(NH4)2S (aq) + 2AgNO3(aq) → Ag2S (s) + 2NH4NO3
Now write a full ionic equation by separating into ions all substances that dissociate: anything (s) (g) or (l) does not dissociate
2NH4 + (aq) + S 2-(aq) + 2Ag+ (aq) + 2NO3- (aq) → Ag2S(s) + 2NH4 + (aq) + 2NO3- (aq)
To write the NET IONIC equation, inspect the full ionic equation above and delete anything that appears on both sides of the → sign:
Net ionic equation:
S 2-(aq) + 2Ag + (aq) → Ag2S(s)
Ionization energy increases from left to right because the left wants to lose elctrons and the right wants to gain electron
As you go a group it is easier lose lose because the electrons are farther away from the nucleus and there is less attraction from the positive charges.
It should be 3p3. the p level can hold 6 electrons
Rubidium group 1, 1 valence electrons very reactive
Mg2,2 very reactive
Al 3, 3 reactive
Answer:
s an example, the ground state configuration of the sodium atom is 1s22s22p63s1, as deduced from the Aufbau principle (see below). The first excited state is obtained by promoting a 3s electron to the 3p orbital, to obtain the 1s22s22p63p1 configuration, abbreviated as the 3p level.
