Answer:

N- 1s2 2s2 2p3

Mg- 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2

O- 1s2 2s2 2p4

F- 1s2 2s2 2p5

Al-1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p1

Explanation:

Order of decreasing atomic radius

Mg,Al, N,O,F

Order of increasing ionization energy

Mg,Al, N,O,F

Reason:

Atomic radius decreases with increase in nonmetallic character. Looking at the electronic configurations, as effective nuclear charge increases, the atom becomes smaller and the attractive force between the nucleus and the outermost electrons increases. Hence, the radius of the atom decreases and ionization energy increases. Note that the addition of more orbital electrons implies addition of more nuclear charge since the both must exactly balance for the atom to remain electrically neutral. The more the electrons in the outermost shell, the higher the first ionization energy.

A sample of an alloy of aluminum contains 0.0898 mol Al and 0.0381 mol Mg. What are the mass percentages of Al and Mg in the all
blondinia [14]

Answer:

Al 72.61%

Mg 27.39%

Explanation:

To obtain the mass percentages, we need to place the individual masses over the total mass and multiply by 100%.

If we observe clearly, we can see that the parameters given are the moles. We need to convert the moles to mass.

To do this ,we need to multiply the moles by the atomic masses. The atomic mass of aluminum is 27 while that of magnesium is 24.

Now, the mass of aluminum is thus = 27 * 0.0898 = 2.4246g

The mass of magnesium is 0.0381 * 24 = 0.9144g

We can now calculate the mass percentage.

The total mass is 0.9144 + 2.4246 = 3.339g

% mass of Al = 2.4246/3.339 * 100 = 72.61%

% mass of Mg = 0.9144/3.39 * 100 = 27.39%
