Answer:

Option C is correct

1s22s22p5 and [Ne]3s23p5

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Group 17 = the halogens

Halogens have 7 valence electrons

The first element of group 17 = Fluorine (F)

Fluorine has 9 electrons

The electron configuration is

1s2 2s2 2p5

The second element of group 17 = Chlorine (Cl)

Chlorine has 17 electrons

The electron configuration is

1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p5

Option C is correct

1s22s22p5 and [Ne]3s23p5

Perform the calculation and record the answer with the correct number of significant figures.
kotykmax [81]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

A. (6.5-6.10)/3.19

B. (34.123 + 9.60) / (98.7654 - 9.249)

<u>Answer:</u>

<u>For A:</u> The answer becomes 0.1

<u>For B:</u> The answer becomes 0.4884

<u>Explanation:</u>

Significant figures are defined as the figures present in a number that expresses the magnitude of a quantity to a specific degree of accuracy.

Rules for the identification of significant figures:

  • Digits from 1 to 9 are always significant and have infinite number of significant figures.
  • All non-zero numbers are always significant. For example: 664, 6.64 and 66.4 all have three significant figures.
  • All zeros between the integers are always significant. For example: 5018, 5.018 and 50.18 all have four significant figures.
  • All zeros preceding the first integers are never significant. For example: 0.00058 has two significant figures.
  • All zeros after the decimal point are always significant. For example: 2.500, 25.00 and 250.0 all have four significant figures.
  • All zeroes used solely for spacing the decimal point are not significant. For example: 10000 has one significant figure.

<u>Rule applied for addition and subtraction:</u>

The least precise number present after the decimal point determines the number of significant figures in the answer.

<u>Rule applied for multiplication and division:</u>

In case of multiplication and division, the number of significant digits is taken from the value which has least precise significant digits

  • <u>For A:</u> (6.5-6.10)/3.19

This a a problem of subtraction and division.

First, the subtraction is carried out.

\Rightarow \frac{6.5-6.10}{3.19}=\frac{0.4}{3.19}

Here, the least precise number after decimal was 1.

\Rightarrow \frac{0.4}{3.19}=0.125

Here, the least precise number of significant digit is 1. So, the answer becomes 0.1

  • <u>For B:</u> (34.123 + 9.60) / (98.7654 - 9.249)

This a a problem of subtraction, addition and division.

First, the subtraction and addition is carried out.

\Rightarow \frac{34.123+9.60}{98.7654-9.249}=\frac{43.723}{89.5164}=\frac{43.72}{89.516}

Here, the least precise number after decimal in addition are 2 and in subtraction are 3

\Rightarrow \frac{43.72}{89.516}=0.48840

Here, the least precise number of significant digit are 4. So, the answer becomes 0.4884
