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

After the collapse of a nebular cloud, atoms begin gravitating together to form a condensed center. What happens next in the sta
posledela

Answer:

Depending upon the mass gathered, the next process formation varies:

Nuclear fusion can kick in leading to formation of star. The nuclei fuse to together and energy is liberated in the form of light and heat.

If sufficient mass is not gathered to start nuclear fusion reaction, gaseous planet forms like Jupiter.

In third case, even though sufficient mass is present (twice the mass of Jupiter) still no fusion reaction starts. Such bodies are known as failed stars or brown dwarfs.

What is the value of DeltaG in a spontaneous reaction
krok68 [10]

Gibbs free energy of a reaction ( Δ G  ) is the change in free energy of a system that undergoes the chemical reaction. It is the energy associated with the reaction, which is available to do some useful work. If      ΔG<0 , then the reaction can be utilized to do some useful work. If   ΔG>0 , then work has to be done on the system or external energy is required to make the reaction happen. ΔG=0  when the reaction is at equilibrium and there is no net change taking place in the system.
