<h3>Answer:</h3>

                  The Element can either be,

                                 i) Aluminium (Al)

                                 ii) Silicon (Si)

                                 iii) Phosphorous (P)

                                 iv)  Sulfur (S)

                                 v) Chlorine (Cl)

Or,

                                 vi) Argon (Ar)

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

                            The best and easiest way to identify major group (s and p block) elements using periodic table is by studying their electronic configuration.

Identifying Group of an Element:

                                                      The group of an element can be identified by counting the number of valence electrons present in the valence shell of an atom.

Examples:

i)  Sodium:  

            Electronic configuration of Sodium is as follow,

                                                     1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s¹

As there is only one valence electron in valence shell of sodium (3rd shell) hence, it is present in group 1 of the periodic table.

ii)  Neon:  

            Electronic configuration of Neon is as follow,

                                                       1s², 2s², 2p⁶

As there are eight valence electrons in valence shell of neon (2nd shell) hence, it is present in group 8 of the periodic table.

Identifying Period of an Element:

                                                      The number of period in which the element is present is equal to the valence shell number of that element.

Examples:

i) Sodium:

            Electronic configuration of Sodium is as follow,

                                                     1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s¹

As the valence shell is 3, therefore, Sodium is present in 3rd Period.

ii) Neon:

            Electronic configuration of Neon is as follow,

                                                     1s², 2s², 2p⁶

As the valence shell is 2, therefore, Neon is present in 2nd Period.

<h3>Conclusion:</h3>

                  As in statement we are not given with the number of electrons present in the shells and sub-shells of the electronic configuration hence, we can conclude that this electronic configuration can belong to either;

Aluminium, as it has electronic configuration 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p¹.

Silicon, as it has electronic configuration 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p².

Phosphorous, as it has electronic configuration 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p³.

Sulfur, as it has electronic configuration 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁴.

Chlorine, as it has electronic configuration 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁵.

Argon, as it has electronic configuration 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶.

As the valence shell is same and extended up to p sub-shell hence this electronic configuration is for any atom present in period 3 and p block respectively.

To answer this problem, we need to count the electrons in the given configuration. The complete configuration is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6. There are 2+2+6+2+6 equal to 18 electrons. We find next the element with an atomic number of 18. That element is noble gas argon.

10: Convert 77.0 L at 18.0 mmHg to its new volume at standard pressure.
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is   V2 = 1.82 l

Explanation:

Data

Volume 1 = 77 l

Pressure 1 = 18 mmHg

Volume 2 = ?

Pressure 2 = 760 mmHg

Process

Use Boyle's law to solve this problem

                P1V1 = P2V2

-Solve for V2

                 V2 = P1V1/P2

-Substitution

                 V2 = (18 x 77) / 760

-Simplification

                 V2 = 1386 / 760

-Result

                 V2 = 1.82 l

Where on earth did people decide they wanted to go many years ago
adell [148]

Answer:

Many years ago, people living on the Earth, desired to go to the outer space.

Explanation:

When man initiate to go outer space:

Many times ago, people used to think about the world out of Earth, the space and the sky. These thoughts generated the idea of thinking and imagining the space and the moon.

The idea turned into a movie by Georges Méliès, which was inspired by a book written by Jules Verne. The movie gave the idea to Konstantin Tsiolkovsky, a Russian man to develop many ideas which were implemented by Russia and America to build airplanes and rockets that we see launching at present.

A small though became an idea which gave birth to a new invention through which people live their dreams of going in the outer space. Incredible!
