Answer:

vanadium has 5 valence electrons

Explanation:

The element with electron configuration 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d3

has 23 electrons. This element is Vanadium.

For Vanadium, the atomic number is 23 and the electronic configuration given is  

1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d3

Vanadium's ground state electron configuration is [Ar] 3d3 4s2.

Thus vanadium has 5 valence electrons and during ionic bonding, s-shell electrons are lost first and than d-shell electrons would be lost.

Answer: 5

Explanation: add up all the electrons and it will amount to 23. Arranging by the old model for electronic configuration, we have : 2, 8, 8, 5

The last number being 5 represent its valence electron

. In a separate experiment, the molar mass of nicotine is found to be somewhere between 150 and 180 g/mol. Calculate the molar m
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

<h2>         162g/mol</h2>

Explanation:

The question is incomplete. The complete question includes the information to find the empirical formula of nicotine:

<em>Nicotine has the formula   </em>C_xH_yN_z<em> . To determine its composition, a sample is burned in excess oxygen, producing the following results:</em>

  • <em>1.0 mol of CO₂</em>
  • <em>0.70 mol of H₂O</em>
  • <em>0.20 mol of NO₂</em>

<em>Assume that all the atoms in nicotine are present as products </em>

<h2>Solution</h2>

To find the empirical formula you need to find the moles of C, H, and N in each of the compound.

  • 1.0 mol of CO₂ has 1.0 mol of C
  • 0.70 mol of H₂O has 1.4 mol of H
  • 0.20 mol of NO₂ has 0.20 mol of N

Thus, the ratio of moles is:

  • C: 1.0
  • H: 1.4
  • N: 0.20

Divide all by the smallest number: 0.20

  • C: 1.0 / 0.20 = 5
  • H: 1.4 / 0.20 = 7
  • N: 0.20 / 0.20 = 1

Hence, the empirical formula is C₅H₇N

Find the mass of 1 mole of units of the empirical formula:

  • C:  5mol  × 12g/mol = 60g
  • H: 7mol × 1g/mol = 7 g
  • N: 1 mol × 14g/mol = 14g

Total mass = 60g + 7g + 14g = 81g

Two moles of units of the empirical formula weighs 2 × 81g = 162g and three units weighs 3 × 81g = 243 g.

Thus, since the molar mass is between 150 and 180 g/mol, the correct molar mass is 162g/mol and the molecular formula is twice the empirical formula: C₁₀H₁₄N₂.

Answer:

 Answer: 760 uM

Explanation:

the addition of solvent to a solution in a such away that the volume of the solution increases and the concentration decreases is a process know as dilution

The concentration and the volume of the dilute and concentrated solution are given below as follows

     C_{1}V_{1}                               = C_{f}V_{f}

Concentrated solution          Dilute solution

Given that  M1 = 97.0uM

                  V1 = 47.0 mL

                 V2 = 6.0 mL

                 M2  = ?

Therefore M1V1   = M2V2

                M2      = M1V1/V2

                 M2 = (97*47)/6

               M2 = 760 uM

Answer: 760 uM
