Answer: Option (5) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
It is known that the ground state electronic configuration of silicon is ![[Ne]3s^{2}3p^{2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BNe%5D3s%5E%7B2%7D3p%5E%7B2%7D)
.
And, we know that when an atom tends to gain an electron then it acquires a negative charge and when an atom tends to lose an electron then it acquires a positive charge.
As 
has a +4 charge which means that it has lost 4 electrons. Hence, the electronic configuration of is 
.
According to the Aufbau principle, in the ground state of an atom or ion the electrons fill atomic orbitals of the lowest energy levels first, before filling the higher energy levels.
As 2p orbital is filled after the filling of 2s orbital.
Therefore, we can conclude that 2p orbital will be occupied by the electrons of highest energy for the ground-state ion.
Answer:
Ground state
the state with the smallest amount of energy.
Bases
A base is a substance that dissociates into more hydroxide ions (-OH-) when dissolved in water. Bases are also good proton acceptors. Bases, therefore, reduce the number of H+ and increase OH- hence raising the pH of the solution.
B(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇌ BH⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq)
Explanation:
Other properties of bases is that they are bitter to the taste and they feel slippery when touched. Strong bases are nonthlese very corrosive like acids. Bases turn red litmus paper blue. Most alkali hydroxides such as NaOH are bases.

Answer: Please see answer below
Explanation:
The steps of glycogen degradation is as follows from this order.
--->Hormonal signals trigger glycogen breakdown.
1. Glycogen is (de)branched by hydrolysis of α‑1,6‑glycosidic linkages.
2. Blocks consisting of three glucosyl residues are moved by remodeling of α‑1,4‑glycosidic linkages.
3.[Glucose 1‑phosphate is cleaved from the non reducing ends of glycogen and converted to glucose 6‑phosphate.
--->Glucose 6‑phosphate undergoes further metabolic processing
The degradation of Glycogen follows three steps:
(1) the release of glucose 1-phosphate from glycogen,
(2) the remodeling of the glycogen substrate to permit further degradation, and
(3) the conversion of glucose 1-phosphate into glucose 6-phosphate for further metabolism.
