Answer:

2s^2 2p^2

Explanation:

Group 4A contains a total of 4 electrons for each atom in their valence shell. Filling the orbital diagram, let's say, for carbon, notice that when we start with period 2, we have two elements in the s-block, that is, lithium and beryllium. They correspond to the two s electrons that belong to the valence shell of carbon.

Moving on, we have boron and carbon, the remaining 2 electrons. Now, starting with boron, we're in the p-block.

That said, looking at the second period, the electron configuration for the valence shell of a group 4A element would be:

2s^2 2p^2

A chemist titrates 150.0 mL of a 0.2653 M carbonic acid (H2CO3) solution with 0.2196 M NaOH solution at 25 °C. Calculate the pH
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

9.3

Explanation:

This is long and complicated so get ready

We are going to use the conjugate base of carbonic acid with water to make carbonic acid and OH- (Na is simply a spectator ion and is irrelavent here)

Let the conjugate base be A- and Carbonic acid be HA

A- + H20 ⇄ HA + OH-

To find the concentration of A- we must find the concentration of the reactants given. We know this will be equal because it is a strong base and all of it disassociates.

to get moles of acid we take the concentration and multiply by liters to cancel

.2653 x .150 = .039795 mol HA

Because it is at equivalence point we know the moles will be equal. We are given the concentration so we only have to solve for liters

We plug it into the equation and found: .181 L

Now use moles and combined volums to fins concentrarion which is .120 M

Now plug that use the Ka converted to Kb to find the cincentrations of HA and OH-

Ka is (10^-3.60) = 2.4E-4

Kb x Ka is 10^-14

Kb = 3.98E-11

Now we know Kb = [HA] [OH] / [A-]

Solve for this through algebra by using x for the values you dont know

youll find x^2 = 3.3E-10

X = 1.8 E -5

this is the OH- concentration

-log [oh] = pOH

pOH = 4.73

We know 14-pOH = ph so pH= 9.3

Compare the chemical reactivity of chlorine and bromine. Explain your answer. Thanks in advance
shepuryov [24]

Bromine vs Chlorine | Br vs Cl

 

Halogens are group VII elements in the periodic table, and all are electronegative elements and have the capability to produce -1 anions.

Bromine

Bromine is denoted by the symbol Br. This is in the 4th period of the periodic table between chlorine and iodine halogens. Its electronic configuration is [Ar] 4s2 3d10 4p5. The atomic number of bromine is 35. Its atomic mass is 79.904. Bromine staChlorine is an element in the periodic table which is denoted by Cl.  It is a halogen (17th group) in the 3rd period of the periodic table. The atomic number of chlorine is 17; thus, it has seventeen protons and seventeen electrons. Its electron configuration is written as 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p5. Since the p sub level should have 6 electrons to obtain the Argon, noble gas electron configuration, chlorine has the ability to attract an electron. ys as a red-brown color liquid at room temperature.
