The correct answer is Ga3+.  

Electron configuration of Al is [Ne] 3s2 3p1  

Electron configuration of Al3+ is [Ne]  

So the electron configuration of Al3+ is like that of Ne.  


Electron configuration of Sc is [Ar] 3d1 4s2  

Electron configuration of Sc3+ is [Ar]  

So the electron configuration of Sc3+ is like that of Ar.  


Electron configuration of As is [Ar] 3d10 4s2 4p3  

Electron configuration of As3- is [Ar] 3d10 4s2 4p6

So the electron configuration of As3- is like that of Kr

Electron configuration of Kr [Ar] 3d10 4s2 4p6  


Electron configuration of Ga is [Ar] 3d10 4s2 4p1

Electron configuration of Ga3+ is [Ar]3d10

The presence of the ten d orbital electrons prevents Ga3+ from having the same electron configuration as Argon.  

All other choices have the same electron configurations as a noble gas.

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The atomic number of Al is 13, so the electronic configuration of Al is as follows.

            1s^{2}2s^{2}2p^{6}3s^{2}3p^{1}

         = [Ne]3s^{2}3p^{1}

Al^{3+} = [Ne]

The atomic number of Sc is 21, so the electronic configuration of Sc is as follows.

         1s^{2}2s^{2}2p^{6}3s^{2}3p^{6}4s^{2}3d^{1}

        = [Ar]4s^{2}3d^{1}

 Sc^{3+} = [Ar]

The atomic number of As is 33, so the electronic configuration of As is as follows.

         1s^{2}2s^{2}2p^{6}3s^{2}3p^{6}4s^{2}3d^{10}4p^{3}

         = [Ar]4s^{2}3d^{10}4p^{3}

 As^{3-} = [Ar]4s^{2}3d^{10}4p^{6} = [Kr]

The atomic number of Ga is 31, so the electronic configuration of Ga is as follows.

        1s^{2}2s^{2}2p^{6}3s^{2}3p^{6}4s^{2}3d^{10}4p^{1}

       = [Ar]4s^{2}3d^{10}4p^{1}

 Ga^{3+} = [Ar]3d^{10}

Therefore, we can conclude that galium (Ga) ion does not have a noble gas configuration in its ground state.

mixture of N 2 And H2 Gases weighs 13.22 g and occupies a volume of 24.62 L at 300 K and 1.00 atm.Calculate the mass percent of
anygoal [31]

<u>Answer:</u> The mass percent of nitrogen gas and hydrogen gas is 91.41 % and 8.59 % respectively.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation given by ideal gas equation:

PV = nRT

where,

P = Pressure of the gaseous mixture = 1.00 atm

V = Volume of the gaseous mixture = 24.62 L

n = number of moles of the gaseous mixture = ?

R = Gas constant = 0.0821\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}

T = Temperature of the gaseous mixture = 300 K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

1.00atm\times 24.62L=n_{mix}\times 0.0821\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 300K\\\\n_{mix}=\frac{1.00\times 24.62}{0.0821\times 300}=0.9996mol

We are given:

Total mass of the mixture = 13.22 grams

Let the mass of nitrogen gas be 'x' grams and that of hydrogen gas be '(13.22 - x)' grams

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

<u>For nitrogen gas:</u>

Molar mass of nitrogen gas = 28 g/mol

\text{Moles of nitrogen gas}=\frac{x}{28}mol

<u>For hydrogen gas:</u>

Molar mass of hydrogen gas = 2 g/mol

\text{Moles of hydrogen gas}=\frac{(13.22-x)}{2}mol

Equating the moles of the individual gases to the moles of mixture:

0.9996=\frac{x}{28}+\frac{(13.22-x)}{2}\\\\x=12.084g

To calculate the mass percentage of substance in mixture we use the equation:

\text{Mass percent of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Mass of mixture}}\times 100

Mass of the mixture = 13.22 g

  • <u>For nitrogen gas:</u>

Mass of nitrogen gas = x = 12.084 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Mass percent of nitrogen gas}=\frac{12.084g}{13.22g}\times 100=91.41\%

  • <u>For hydrogen gas:</u>

Mass of hydrogen gas = (13.22 - x) = (13.22 - 12.084) g = 1.136 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Mass percent of hydrogen gas}=\frac{1.136g}{13.22g}\times 100=8.59\%

Hence, the mass percent of nitrogen gas and hydrogen gas is 91.41 % and 8.59 % respectively.
