podryga [215]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Option d, 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2

Explanation:

Alkaline earth metals belong to group 2 of the periodic table. Elements belonging to group 2 are beryllium, magnesium, calcium, strontium and barium and radium.

Alkaline earth metals have 2 valence electrons and these two electrons are filled in outermost s sub shell.

General electronic configuration of alkaline earth metal: ns^2

In ionized state, number of electrons in s sub shell will not be 2.

Among the given, only 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2, has 2 electrons in s sub shell. So, it an electronic configuration of neutral alkaline earth metal.

Which of the following would be considered a solution?
S_A_V [24]
A solution must have both a solute and a solvent, and they must exist in solution together. the solute must be dissolved in the solvent; salt does not dissolve in a sugar bowl, nor does oil dissolve in water; it is a non polar molecule. we know that sugar (the solute) when added to water(solvent) will dissolve, creating a solution.

A compound is formed when 9.03 g
NikAS [45]

The percent composition  of this compound :

Mg = 72.182%

N = 27.818%

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

9.03 g  Mg

3.48 g  N

Required

The percent composition

Solution

Proust stated the Comparative Law that compounds are formed from elements with the same Mass Comparison so that the compound has a fixed composition of elements

Total mass of the compound :

= 9.03 g + 3.48 g

= 12.51 g

The percent composition :

Mg : 9.03/ 12.51 g x 100% = 72.182%

N : 3.48 / 12.51 g x 100% = 27.818%

Salt water contains n sodium ions (NA ) per cubic meter and n chloride ions (Cl-) per cubic meter. A battery is connected to met
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer: hello your question is incomplete below is the complete question

Salt water contains n sodium ions (Na+) per cubic meter and n chloride ions (Cl−) per cubic meter. A battery is connected to metal rods that dip into a narrow pipe full of salt water. The cross sectional area of the pipe is A. The magnitude of the drift velocity of the sodium ions is VNa​ and the magnitude of the drift velocity of the chloride ions is VCl​.

What is the magnitude of the ammeter reading ?

answer :

| I | = neAVₙₐ  + neAV (Cl-)

Explanation:

Given that there are N sodium ions

<u>Determine the Magnitude of the ammeter reading </u>

| I | = current due to sodium ions + current due to (Cl-) ions

     = neAVₙₐ  + neAV (Cl-)

Tia has a sample of pure gold (Au). She weighed the sample and the result was 35.9 grams. Tia wants to determine the number of a
Gemiola [76]
First, find moles of gold given the mass of the sample:
(35.9g Au)/(197.0g/mol Au) = 0.182mol Au

Second, multiply moles of Au by Avogrado's number:
(0.182mol)(6.02 x10^23)= 1.10x10^23 atoms Au
