The advantage of using an orbital notation is that it shows the electron distribution in shells. 

<span>Dot structures only show the valence electrons of an atom which are the electrons found at the outermost shell. The orbital notation gives a more detailed depiction of the electrons in each shell. This is most advantageous for atoms that have special cases. </span>

<span>Some examples of atoms that have special electronic configurations are copper and chromium. For example, copper is more stable when the 3d subshell is completely filled. This leaves the 4s subshell with only 1 electron. Chromium is also more stable when its s and d subshells are only half full. The orbital notation depicts these special cases, whereas the dot structure does not.</span>

Why are silver, lead, and mercury so special? (why do they always precipitate out and never dissolve) PLEASE BE DETAILED BUT SIM
lara [203]
Silver and lead are special elements, where silver is insoluble in all halogen anions (like AgCl, AgI, AgBr)
and lead is insoluble in sulphates and halogen anions ( PbSO4, PbCl2, etc.)
Mercury is special because it is the only metal that is a liquid at room temperature
hope this helps!!

A 0.0200 gram piece of unknown alkaline earth metal, M, is reacted with excess 0.500 M H 2 SO 4 , and the hydrogen gas produced
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

0.981atm

Explanation:

According ot Dalton's law total pressure of a mixture of non-reactive gas is equal to sum of partial pressures of individual gases.

total pressure= 1.01at

Number of gases=2

Gases: water vapor and hydrogen

partial pressure of water vapor= 0.029atm

1.01= partial pressure of water vapor+ partial pressure of hydrogen

1.01= 0.029 + partial pressure of hydrogen

partial pressure of hydrogen = 0.981atm
