Fluorine has an atomic number of 9, how many electron shells does it have?

1 answer:

4 0

2 shells because if you do the electronic configuration:
2,7 which adds up to 9
7 stands for the group it in and it also stands for how many electrons are in the outer shell.
the amount of spaces stands for which period its in therefore it in period 2

when hydrogen atom absorbs a photon, and an electron moves level 1 to level 2, what happens to the energy of the atom?

pychu [463]

Answer:

When an electron is hit by a photon of light, it absorbs the quanta of energy the photon was carrying and moves to a higher energy state. One way of thinking about this higher energy state is to imagine that the electron is now moving faster, (it has just been "hit" by a rapidly moving photon).

Write the condensed nd structural formulas as well as the names for all isomers of C3H5Cl3.

Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

1) 1,1,1-trichloropropane

2) 1,1,2-trichloropropane

3) 1,2,2-trichloropropane

4) 1,2,3-trichloropropane

Explanation:

For this question, we must remember that isomers are molecules that have the same formula but different structures. For the formula $C_3H_5Cl_3$ we can draw a linear chain of three carbons and change the position of the chlorine atoms in the carbon chain.

With this in mind, if we put all the chlorine atoms on the same carbon we will get 1,1,1-trichloropropane. If we change an atom from chlorine to carbon 2 we will obtain 1,1,2-trichloropropane. If we move another chlorine atom to carbon two we will get 1,2,2-trichloropropane. Finally, if we put a chlorine atom in each carbon we will obtain 1,2,3-trichloropropane.

See figure one for further explanations

I hope it helps!
