statuscvo [17]

Answer:

₁₅P = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p³

Explanation:

Phosphorus is the second element of group (v) with atomic number 15 and the electrons per shell are arrange as thus; 2, 8, 5.

The electronic configuration of phosphorus is

₁₅P = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p³

Or

₁₅P [Ne] 3s² 3p³

In its first shell I.e 1s shell, it has 2 electrons filling it to s-orbital requirement. In its second shell, electrons fill it in 2s² 2p⁶ filling the second orbital and attaining an octet configuration. The third shell contains 5 electrons filling 3s² 3p³ orbital.

Why does such a small decrease in pH mean such a large increase in acidity?
den301095 [7]

Answer:

pH is an index of how many protons, or hydrogen ions (H+) are dissolved and free in a solution. The pH scale goes from 0 to 14. A fluid with a pH of 7 is neutral. Below 7, it is acidic; above 7, it is alkaline.

The more below or above 7 a solution is, the more acidic or alkaline it is. The scale is not linear—a drop from pH 8.2 to 8.1 indicates a 30 percent increase in acidity, or concentration of hydrogen ions; a drop from 8.1 to 7.9 indicates a 150 percent increase in acidity. Bottom line: Small-sounding changes in ocean pH are actually quite large and definitely in the direction of becoming less alkaline, which is the same as becoming more acidic.

If you think about it, we use descriptive words like this all the time. A person who stands 5’5” tall and weighs 300 pounds isn’t thin. If he loses 100 pounds, he still won’t be thin, but he will be thinner than he was before he went on the diet. (And we are more likely to comment that he’s looking trimmer than to say he’s not as fat as he used to be.)

A quantity of water is heated from 25.0°C to 36.4°C by absorbing 325 J of heat energy. If the specific heat of water is 4.18 J /
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

6,8 g

Explanation:

c = 4.18 J/(g * °C) = 4180 J / (kg * °C)

t_{1} = 25 °C

t_{2} = 36,4 °C

Q = 325 J

The formula is: Q = c * m * (t_{2} - t_{1})

m = \frac{Q}{c * (t_{2} - t_{1} )}

Calculating:

m = 325 / 4180 * (36,4 - 25) ≈ 0,0068 kg = 6,8 g
