Answer:
1s2 2s2 2p6
Explanation:
The nitride ion(N^3-) is formed when nitrogen gains three electrons. Nitrogen possesses seven electrons in its orbitals and ordinarily has the electronic configuration; 1s2 2s2 2p3. However,being in group 15, nitrogen can accept three electrons to form the nitride ion and complete its octet of electrons. When this happens, three electrons are added to the nitrogen atom and the electronic configuration is now the same as that of Neon, its closest noble gas which is 1s2 2s2 2p6. Hence the answer given above.
Elements can accept or donate electrons in order to complete their octet structure in accordance to the octet rule which states that atoms and ions must possess eight electrons in their outermost shell in order to attain chemical stability. The reason for ion formation and chemical reaction is in order for species to attain the octet structure.
Answer:
275g
Explanation:
Depending on the molar mass you are given, you can use that to solve this.
(I'm going based on my science class' molar mass of sulphur being 32.07g/mol)
Starting off, the formula for finding moles is
n=m/M (moles = mass / molar mass)
We can manipulate this equation to solve for mass.
m=Mn
now fill in what we now.
m = 32.07*8.56
mass = 274.5192
Now round for significant digits (if you are needed to do)
mass = 275g
An object that is not already moving will begin to move in the direction of the larger force. An object that is already moving will change its speed and/or its direction.
Because a good stepping stone would be a solid and if that solid were to melt or turn to gas you’d have no stepping stone.
