A neutral atom in the ground state of Sulfur has its outer most valence electron in which orbital? f d

Chemistry
1 answer:
Natasha_Volkova [10]3 years ago
3 0

<u>Answer:</u> The outermost valence electron enters the p orbital.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Valence electrons are defined as the electrons which are present in outer most orbital of an atom.

Sulfur is the 16th element of the periodic table having 16 electrons.

Electronic configuration of sulfur atom is 1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^4

The number of valence electrons are 2 + 4 = 6

These 6 electrons enter s-orbital and p-orbital but the outermost valence electron will enter the p-orbital.

Hence, the outermost valence electron enters p orbital.

Suggest two observations that would be made when rubidium is added to cold water.
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

1. Rubidium metal reacts very rapidly with water to form a colorless basic solution of rubidium hydroxide (RbOH) and hydrogen gas (H2).

2. Rubidium sinks because it is less dense than water. It reacts violently and immediately, with everything leaving the container. Rubidium hydroxide solution and hydrogen are formed.

PLZ HELP!<br><br> How do you think changing the angle of a ramp will affect work done?
kogti [31]

Answer: The steepness of a ramp affects it by making it easier or harder.

Explanation: It's a bit situational. If you were going up a steep ramp with a heavy load, it will increase the work necessary, whereas if you were going down a ramp, it would decrease the work necessary. If you need this simply put, think about biking up and down a hill. It would be easier going down than up.

State five difference between ionic compound and covalent compound​
lawyer [7]

Answer:

Compound are defined as the containing two or more different element .

(1) Ionic compound and (2) Covalent compound.

Explanation:

Covalent compound :- covalent compound are the sharing of electrons two or more atom.

Covalent compound are physical that lower points and compared to ionic .

Covalent compound that contain bond are carbon monoxide (co), and methane .

Covalent compound are share the pair of electrons.

Covalent compound are bonding a hydrogen atoms electron.

Ionic compound a large electrostatic actions between atoms.

Ionic compound are higher melting points and covalent compound.

Ionic compound are bonding a nonmetal electron.

Ionic electron can be donate and received ionic bond.
