An atom has the following electron configuration 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p4 . How many valence electrons does this Atom have

Chemistry

6 0

Answer:

6

Explanation:

This atom is sulfur (if the electrons are equal to the protons/not an ion). You can tell the number of valence electrons by looking at the individual shell. The first shell (1s) can only hold 2 electrons. The second shell (2s and 2p) can hold 8 electrons. The third shell (3s and 3p), which is the valence shell, only has 6 out of its possible 8 electrons, so this atom has 6 valence electrons.

What is the molariity of a 50.0 mL aqueous solution containing 10.0 grams of table salt, NaCl?
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

3 mol/L

Explanation:

You should know or have the equation to solve for Molarity which is;

M = n/v           (M: Molarity) (n: moles of solute) (v: Liters of solute)

You can start off differently but I would start by converting the mL to L. This is your "v" value.

50.0 mL/ 1000 mL = 0.05 L

Now, you have to convert grams to moles in order to solve for molarity (M).

1.) On the periodic table find the molecular weights of Na and Cl.

Na= 22.99 g/mol         Cl= 35.45g/mol

2.) Add them together to have their combined molecular weights.

22.99 + 35.45= 58.44 g/mol

3.) Now, you're going to use the "picket fence method" or whichever your teacher taught you to convert from grams to moles. This will be your "n" value. (I cannot show it on here without it looking weird, so my sincere apologies.)

10.0 g/ 58.44 g = 0.17111 mol

4.)You are now going to plug in your answers into the equation for Molarity.

M= 0.17111 mol / 0.05 L = 3.4222

5.) I am sure your professor might be a stickler so for sig figs sake when you multiply or divide use the smallest amount of sig figs you see which is 1. Round 3.4222 to 3 mol/L

Sorry this explanation is long let me know if you need a better more written out sample.

Determine the volume in mL of 0.37 M HClO4(aq) needed to reach the half-equivalence (stoichiometric) point in the titration of 2
Dimas [21]

Answer:

14.3mL you require to reach the half-equivalence point

Explanation:

A strong acid as HClO₄ reacts with a weak base as CH₃CH₂NH₂, thus:

CH₃CH₂NH₂ + HClO₄ → CH₃CH₂NH₃⁺ + ClO₄⁻

As the reaction is 1:1, to reach the equivalence point you require to add the moles of HClO₄ equal to moles CH₃CH₂NH₂ you add originally. Also, half-equivalence point requires to add half-moles of CH₃CH₂NH₂ you add originally.

Initial moles of CH₃CH₂NH₂ are:

20.8mL = 0.0208L × (0.51mol CH₃CH₂NH₂ / 1L) =

0.0106moles CH₃CH₂NH₂

To reach the half-equivalence point you require:

0.0106moles ÷ 2 = 0.005304 moles HClO₄

As concentration of HClO₄ is 0.37M, volume you require to add 0.005304moles is:

0.005304 moles HClO₄ ₓ (1L / 0.37mol) = 0.0143L =

<h3> 14.3mL you require to reach the half-equivalence point</h3>

Differentiate surface waves from body waves?
Snowcat [4.5K]

Body waves travel through the interior of the Earth. On the other hand, surface waves propagate only at the interface between two different media, like the interface between Earth and atmosphere (i.e. the surface of the Earth).

Body waves are of two types: Primary waves (also called P-waves, or pressure waves) and Secondary waves (S-waves, or shear waves).

P-waves are compression waves. They can propagate in solid or liquid material.

S-waves are shear waves. They only propagate in solid material.

By studying the trajectories of S-waves, scientists could prove that the Earth had a liquid outer core.
