Answer:

The answer to your question is:  B and C.

Explanation:

Neon atomic number = 10

Electron configuration is not :   1s²2s¹2p⁶  .

This electron configuration is for fluor (9 electrons) because is we sum up the electrons ( 2 + 1 + 6) the result is 9.

A)The 3s orbital should be part of the configuration.  This is not the right reason.

B)The total number of electrons is incorrect.  This correct, the number of electrons is 9 instead of 10.

C)The 2s orbital does not have enough electrons.  This option is correct, 2s must have 2 electrons and it only has 1.

D) The 1s orbital does not have enough electrons. This option is incorrect, 1s orbital can have only 2 electrons.

How many milliliters of water will it take to fill a 2 L bottle that already contains 1.87 L of water?
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

0.00013

Explanation:

I'm pretty sure. I first subtracted 1.87 from 2. I got 0.13. The conversion from mL to L is 0.001. I multiplied 0.13 and 0.001 and got <u>0.00013 mL.</u>

A solution is made by dissolving 10.7 g of magnesium sulfate, MgSO4, in enough water to make exactly 100 mL of solution. Calcula
adell [148]

Answer:

[MgSO₄] = 890 mM/L

Explanation:

In order to determine molarity we need to determine the moles of solute that are in 1L of solution.

Solute: MgSO₄ (10.7 g)

Solvent: water

Solution: 100 mL as volume. (100 mL . 1L / 1000mL) = 0.1L

We convert the solute's mass  to moles → 10.7 g / 120.36 g/mol = 0.089 moles

Molarity (mol/L) → 0.089 mol/0.1L = 0.89 M

In order to calculate M to mM/L, we make this conversion:

0.89 mol . 1000 mmoles/ 1 mol = 890 mmoles

Which of the following statements is FALSE? Which of the following statements is FALSE?
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer: option A) Mixtures may be composed of two or more elements, two or more compounds, or a combination of both.

Explanation:

A mixture is a combination of two or more substances mixed together and can be separated by physical methods.

A combination of two elements or compounds will yield chemical compounds NOT a mixture.

Thus, option A is false statement
