How many electrons are in the highest occupied energy level of an element in group 5a

Chemistry
1 answer:
Setler79 [48]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

3 electrons

Explanation:

The elements of group 5A of the periodic table are the following:

nitrogen, sodium, arsenic, antimony and bismuth.

To determine the amount of electrons in the last energy level we need to know the electronic configuration of each element.

Electronic configuration

N: [He] 2s2 2p3

P: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p3

As: [Ar] 3d10 4s2 4p3

Sb: [Kr] 4d10 5s2 5p3

Bi: [Xe] 4f14 5d10 6s2 6p3

As we can see they all have 3 electrons in their last energy level .

The total pressure in a mixture of gases is equal to the partial pressures of
baherus [9]

Answer:

"The total pressure in a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of partial pressures of each gas"

Explanation:

Dalton's law of partial pressures state that, in a mixture of gases, the total pressure is equal to the sum of the partial pressure exerted by each gas of the mixture. The equation is:

Total pressure = Partial pressure Gas 1 + Partial pressure Gas 2 + .... + Partial pressure Gas n

To complete the sentence we can say:

"The total pressure in a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of partial pressures of each gas"

16.0 grams of molecular oxygen gas is equal to
IceJOKER [234]

One thing to notice in the question is, we are asked about molecular oxygen that has formula O2 not atomic oxygen O.

As we are asked about molecular oxygen, we will answer the question in terms of number of molecules that are present in 16 grams of molecular oxygen.

To get the number of molecules present in 16 grams of O2, we will use the formula:

         No. of molecules = no. of moles x Avogadro's number (NA)-----  eq 1)

As we know:

                        The number of moles = mass/ molar mass of molecule

Here we have been given mass already, 16 grams and the molar mass of O2 is 32 grams.

Putting the values in above formula:

                                                    = 16/32  

                                                     = 0.5 moles

Putting the number of moles and Avogadro's number (6.02 * 10^23) in eq 1

                                No. of molecules = 0.5  x 6.02 * 10^23

                                   =3.01 x 10^23 molecules

or                 301,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 molecules

This means that 16 grams of 3.01 x 10^23 molecules of oxygen.

Hope it helps!
