Answer:

In atomic physics and quantum chemistry , the electron configuration is the distribution of electrons of an atom or molecule (or other physical structure) in atomic or molecular orbitals. For example, the electron configuration of the neon atom is 1s 2 2s 2 2p 6, using the notation explained below.

Answer:

To calculate an electron configuration, divide the periodic table into sections to represent the atomic orbitals, the regions where electrons are contained. Groups one and two are the s-block, three through 12 represent the d-block, 13 to 18 are the p-block and the two rows at the bottom are the f-block.

Explanation:

In atomic physics and quantum chemistry, the electron configuration is the distribution of electrons of an atom or molecule in atomic or molecular orbitals. For example, the electron configuration of the neon atom is 1s² 2s² 2p⁶, using the notation explained below.

Aristarchus tried to calculate the sizes of the sun and moon based on
avanturin [10]

The incorrect statement is that; "Aristarchus calculated the distances between the sun and earth fairly accurately."

<h3>The size of the solar system</h3>

The solar system is composed of the sun, the planets and other celestial bodies such as the moon. We can see form the experiment that Aristarchus  tried to determine the relative sizes of the earth and the moon.

However, the incorrect statement is that; "Aristarchus calculated the distances between the sun and earth fairly accurately."

Most nonmetals form covalent or ionic bonds, depending on the element with which they react Carbon predominantly forms bonds sin
ololo11 [35]
When an element requires 3 or 4 electrons to complete their octet, they cannot form ionic bond because one require a large amount of energy to completely remove an electron from ones outer shell and transfer it to the other. Ionic bond is permanent transfer of electrons. Thus, they form covalent bond. 
Electronegativity difference between elements involved also plays a major role in bond formation. If electronegativity between elements is almost similar, then they will form covalent bonds whereas if difference is large, they will form ionic bond. Calcium and Carbon have greater electronegativity difference and hence it forms ionic bond with Calcium.

!!!help ASAP!!! What is true of dynamic equilibrium?
MArishka [77]

A. All the changes to a system cancel out.

Explanation:

In a dynamic equilibrium, it looks as if nothing is happening for reversible reactions because the changes simply cancels out.

This will then appear like no change is happening in it. When external stress is introduced into the system, it will annul its effect in order to remain in equilibrium.

  • The system must be involved in reversible chemical processes no matter how small the extent of the reversibility.
  • The rate of forward process is equal to the rate of the backward process.
  • The system is closed and cannot exchange energy.
  • The free energy change of the system is zero.
  • There is no change in concentration of each species in equilibrium.
  • The system offers resistance to any change in factors.
