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

How can you determine an object mechanical energy
Dafna1 [17]
Objects have mechanical energyif they are in motion and/or if they are at some position relative to a zero potential energy position (for example, a brick held at a vertical position above the ground or zero height position). A moving car possesses mechanical energydue to its motion (kineticenergy).

What is the process used to convert between moles, mass, volume, and particles?
Roman55 [17]

conversion between mass and moles#

<em> </em>

<em>A substance's molar mass is calculated by multiplying its relative atomic mass by the molar mass constant (1 g/mol). The molar mass constant can be used to convert mass to moles. By multiplying a given mass by the molar mass, the amount of moles of the substance can be calculated.</em>

You have at your disposal 3 1-pound bags of various pure salts that dissolve readily in water. You can add one of the bags to a
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

This question appears incomplete

Explanation:

However, it should be noted that addition of soluble salts generally lowers the freezing point of water hence after the addition, water will no longer freeze at 0°C but lower.

Soluble salts tend to form more ions in water, it is these ions that are responsible for interfering with the hydrogen bonds hence lowering the freezing. Thus, (since each bag are of the same weight) <u>the bag that contains the salt that ionizes more in water will lower the freezing point by the greatest amount</u>.

NOTE: Different weight of the salts could lead to more ions been formed in the water by some salts as against the other.

Capsaicin, the compound that gives the hot taste to chili peppers, has the formula C18H27NO3. Its molar mass is 305.42 g/mol. Ca
stellarik [79]
Molar mass = 305.42 g/mol

C = ( 12 x 18 / 305.42 ) x 100 => 70.72 % of C

H = ( 1 x 27 / 305.42 ) x 100 => 8.84 % of H

N = ( 14 x 1 / 305.42 ) x 100 => 4.58 % of N

O = ( 16 x 3 / 305.42) x 100 => 15.71% of O

hope this helps!
