What neutral element has the electron configuration described by the Aufbau diagram above.​

Chemistry
1 answer:
devlian [24]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Aluminium.

Explanation:

The above electronic configuration can be written in a simplified form as shown below:

1s² 2s²2p⁶ 3s²3p¹

Next, we shall determine the number of electrons in the atom of the element as follow:

Number electron = 2 + 2 + 6 + 2 + 1

Number of electron = 13

Next, we shall determine the number of protons.

Since the element is in its neutral state,

The number of electrons and protons are equal i.e

Proton = Electron

Number of electron = 13

Proton = Electron = 13

Proton = 13

Next, we shall determine the atomic number of the element.

The atomic number of an element is simply the number of protons in the atom of the element i.e

Atomic number = proton number

Proton = 13

Atomic number = 13

Comparing the atomic number of the element with those in the periodic table, the element with the above electronic configuration is aluminium since no two elements have the same atomic number.

Calculate the mass of carbon dioxide released when 185.000 g of copper carbonate [molar mass = 123.5 g/mol] is heated (assuming
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: 65.9 g released of CO2

Explanation:

MW CO2 = 44 g

MW CuCO3 = 123.5 g

CO2 released = ?

CuCO3 = 185 g

                            CuCO3     ⇒    CO2   +    CuO

                             123.5  -----------  44g

                             185 g -----------    x

                           x = (185 x 44) / 123.5

                           x = 65.9 g released of CO2

What are the limitations of litmus paper and Phenolphthalein indicators? Name to other indicators that can be used that do not h
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

Here's what I find.

Explanation:

An indicator is usually is a weak acid in which the acid and base forms have different colours. Most indicators change colour over a narrow pH range.

(a) Litmus

Litmus is red in acid (< pH 5) and blue in base (> pH 8).

This is a rather wide pH range, so litmus is not much good in titrations.

However, the range is which it changes colour includes pH 7 (neutral), so it is good for distinguishing between acids and bases.

(b) Phenolphthalein

Phenolphthalein  is colourless in acid (< pH 8.3) and red in base (> pH 10).

This is a narrow pH range, so phenolphthalein is good for titrating acids with strong bases..

However, it can't distinguish between acids and weakly basic solutions.

It would be colourless in a strongly acid solution with pH =1 and in a basic solution with pH = 8.

(c) Other indicators  

Other acid-base indicators have the general limitations as phenolphthalein. Most of them have a small pH range, so they are useful in acid-base titrations.

The only one that could serve as a general acid-base indicator is bromothymol blue, which has a pH range of 6.0 to 7.6.
