Answer:

Electronic configuration of Ga³⁺:

Ga = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s⁰ 3d¹⁰ 4p⁰

Explanation:

Gallium is present in group 13.

It has 3 valance electrons.

Electronic configuration:

Ga = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s² 3d¹⁰ 4p¹

There are two possibilities of gallium to form cation.

By removing one 4p electron to form Ga +1 cation.

By removing two 4s electrons and one 4p to form Ga +3 cation.

Gallium is preset in group thirteen that's why common oxidation state is +3.

Electronic configuration of Ga⁺:

Ga = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s² 3d¹⁰ 4p⁰

Electronic configuration of Ga³⁺:

Ga = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s⁰ 3d¹⁰ 4p⁰

Answer:

C.)organs are a group of two or more different types of tissues that work together to perform a specific function

Explanation:

Cells of similar function are grouped together into tissues. For example, cardiac muscle tissue is present only in the heart, and made up of specialised cells called cardiomyocytes, or cardiac muscle cells. These cells contract to pump blood around the body.

The heart is an organ, consisting of multiple types of tissue including cardiac muscle tissue, connective tissue, blood vessels and epithelial tissue. Therefore, organs represent a group of at least two types of tissue that work together to carry out functions in the body.
