How many valence electrons does Arsenic have?

1 answer:

4 0

Arsenic's atomic number is 33.

Hence his electronic configuration is $1s^22s^22p^63s^23p$ hence his valence electrons are $4s^24p^3$ .

Answer:

1. $S^{-}(g)+e^{-} \rightarrow S^{2-}(g)$

2. $Ti^{2+}(g) \rightarrow Ti^{3+}(g) \,\, IE = 2652.5\,kJ.mol^{-1}$

3.The electron affinity of $Mg^{2+}$ is zero.

4. $O^{2-}(g) \rightarrow O^{-}(g)+e^{-}$

Explanation:

Electron affinity:

It is defined as the amount of energy change when an electron is added to atom in the gaseous phase.

The electron affinity of $S^{-}$ is as follows.

$S^{-}(g)+e^{-} \rightarrow S^{2-}(g)$

Ionization energy:

Amount of energy required to removal of an electron from an isolated gaseous atom.

The third ionization energy of Titanium is as follows.

$Ti^{2+}(g) \rightarrow Ti^{3+}(g) \,\, IE = 2652.5\,kJ.mol^{-1}$

The electronic configuration of Mg: $1s^{2}2s^{2}2p^{6}3s^{2}$

By the removal of two electrons from a magnesium element we get $Mg^{2+}$ ion.

$Mg^{2+}$ has inert gas configuration i.e, $1s^{2}2s^{2}2p^{6}$

Hence, it does not require more electrons to get stability.

Therefore,the electron affinity of $Mg^{2+}$ is zero.

The ionization energy of $O^{2-}$ is follows.

$O^{2-}(g) \rightarrow O^{-}(g)+e^{-}$

Complete and balance the molecular equation, including the phases, for the reaction of aqueous potassium sulfate, k2so4, and aqu

Tju [1.3M]

The reaction between K₂SO₄(aq) and SrI₂(aq) produces KI(aq) and SrSO₄(s) as products.

The reaction is
K₂SO₄(aq) + SrI₂(aq) → KI(aq)+ SrSO₄(s)

To balance the equation both side of the reaction should have same number of atoms in each element.

Right hand side of the reaction has 1 K, 1 I, 1 Sr, 1 S and 4 O atoms while 2 K, 2 I, 1 Sr,1 S and 4 O present in left hand side of the reaction.
Hence, number of I atoms and number of K atoms are not balanced.
To balance the K atoms we should add 2 before KI. Then I atoms will be 2 at the right hand side.

Hence, the balanced reaction equation is
K₂SO₄(aq) + SrI₂(aq) → 2KI(aq)+ SrSO₄(s)

Determine the maximum amount of Fe that was produced during the experiment. Explain how you determined this amount.

dsp73

Answer:

5 moles of Fe

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction is;

2 Al(s) + Fe 2O 3(s) --> 2Fe (s) + Al 2O 3 (s)

Now;

1 mole of Fe2O3 require 2 moles of Al

3 moles of Fe2O3 requires 3 × 2/1 = 6 moles of Al

Hence Al is the limiting reactant.

If 2 moles of Al yields 2 moles of Fe

5 moles of Al yields 5 × 2/2 = 5 moles of Fe

Please help with 14-16 Thank you!

Natalka [10]

I don't know about 14, but 15 is (4), because a liquid draws in heat to turn into a gas. 16 is (2), because to turn into a cold solid, something has to release heat.
