The electron configuration for an atom is 1s 2s 2p2. How many electrons does the atom have?

Chemistry
1 answer:
taurus [48]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Four  

Step-by-step explanation:

The <em>superscripts</em> in an electron configuration tell us how many electrons are in a subshell.

If the electron configuration is 1s¹ 2s¹2p², the total number of electrons is

1 + 1 + 2 = 4

The atom contains four electrons.

<em>Note</em>: this atom is in an <em>excited state</em>, because the 1s and 2s subshells can each hold one more electron.

When solutions of magnesium chloride and potassium phosphate are combined write the formula for the precipitate formed
Zielflug [23.3K]
The products will be magnesium phosphate and potassium chloride. You then have to watch a solubility chart to see which one of these is not soluable. In this case it is magnesium phosphate.

PLS HELP Students in a chemistry class added 5 g of Zinc (Zn) to 50 g of hydrochloric acid (HCl). A chemical reaction occurred t
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer: In simplest case mass of reactants is same as mass of products.

Without thinking this question deeper, mass of ZnCl2 would be 49, but..

Explanation: Reaction should be  Zn + 2 HCl ⇒ ZnCl2 + H2

Amount of zinc is  5 g / 65,38 g/mol = 0,076476 mol and amount

of Hydrogen Chloride is 50 g / 36.458 g/mol = 1,371 mol.

Althought HCl is needed 0.152 moles, zinc is an limiting reactant.

So it is possible to produce only 0.076476 mol Hydrogen and its mass

is 0.154 g.  Mass of ZnCl2 would be 0.076476 mol · (65.38 + 2·35.45) =

 10.42 g

What is the coefficient for hydrogen in the balanced equation for the reaction of solid molybdenum(iv) oxide with gaseous hydrog
anastassius [24]

The  coefficient  for hydrogen  in  the  balanced  equation   of solid  molybdenum(iV)  oxide  with gaseous  hydrogen  is  2


 Explanation

Coefficient   is defined  to  as  a number  in front   of a chemical formula in a  balanced chemical equation.

   The  reaction   of   molybdenum (iv) oxide  with  gaseous  hydrogen  is  as below,


MoO2  + 2 H2→  Mo  +2 H2O

From   balanced equation above  the coefficient   for  H2  is  2  since  the number in  front of  H2  is 2
