Answer:

D. Their valence electrons can be in both s and f sublevels.

Explanation:

The inner transition elements are those in the two long rows at the bottom of the Periodic Table.

The <em>lanthanide series </em>starts after Ba in Period 6, and the <em>actinide series</em> starts after Ra in Period 7.

Thus, we would predict their electron configurations to be of the form

n\text{s}^{2}(n-2)\text{f}^{n}

However, the energy levels of the <em>n</em>s, (<em>n</em>-1)d, and (<em>n</em>-2)f orbitals are so close in energy that there are many exceptions to our predictions

For example, here are some electron configurations.

La = [Xe]6s²5d (not [Xe]6s²4f)

Ce = [Xe]6s²4f5d (not [Xe]6s²4f²)

Pr = [Xe]6s²4f³ (as predicted)

Thus, their valence electrons can be in both s and f (and sometimes d) sublevels.

A. <em>Wrong</em>. The inner transition elements do not include the elements in Groups 3 to 12. They are the elements between Groups 2 and 3.

B. <em>Wrong.</em> They do not occupy the d block (those are the transition metals). They occupy the f block.

C. <em>Wrong</em>. They include the lanthanides and actinides, but most of them have at least one electron in an f sublevel.

2) Ge is a neutral atom because it doesn't have any charge.

Germanium has 32 electrons and 32 protons because its atomic number is 32.

Be careful with that.

Neutral atoms have the same numbers of electrons and protons.

Avogrados number of representatives particles is equal to one what?​
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

Avogadro number of representatives particles is equal to one mole.

Explanation:

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.

For example,

18 g of water = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules of water

17 g of ammonia = 1 mole =  6.022 × 10²³ molecules of ammonia

12 g of carbon = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms of carbon

1.008 g of hydrogen = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms of hydrogen
