The correct option is "Cd²⁺".

When an element achieves pseudo noble gas configuration<span> it means it has 18 </span>electrons<span> in the highest energy level instead of 8.

The electronic configuration of cadmium is:
</span><span>1<span>s</span></span>² <span>2<span>s</span></span>² <span>2<span>p</span></span>⁶ <span>3<span>s</span></span>² <span>3<span>p</span></span>⁶ <span>4<span>s</span></span>² <span>3<span>d</span></span>¹⁰ <span>4<span>p</span></span>⁶ <span>5<span>s</span></span>² <span>4<span>d<span>1</span></span></span>¹⁰<span><span><span>
</span></span></span>

and the electron configuration of <span>C<span>d</span></span>²⁺ is

<span>1<span>s</span></span>² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s² 3d¹⁰ 4p⁶ 4d¹⁰

<h3>1.A                                                                                                                  2.P waves are the fastest kind of seismic wave. a longitudinal P wave has the ability to move through solid rock and fluid rock, like water or the semi-liquid layers of the earth. It pushes and pulls the rock it moves through in the same way sound waves push and pull the air.                                                                     3.The second type of body wave is the S wave or secondary wave, which is the second wave you feel in an earthquake. An S wave is slower than a P wave and can only move through solid rock, not through any liquid medium. It is this property of S waves that led seismologists to conclude that the Earth’s outer core is a liquid.                                                                        4.P Waves The first kind of body wave is the P wave or primary wave. This is the fastest kind of seismic wave, and, consequently, the first to 'arrive' at a seismic station. The P wave can move through solid rock and fluids, like water or the liquid layers of the earth. </h3><h3 />

2. How many grams of water can be heated from 20.0 oC to 75oC using 12500.0 Joules?
kenny6666 [7]

Answer;

  = 0.054 kg or 54 g

Explanation;

Using the equation; Q = mcΔT where Q is the quantity of heat transferred, m is the mass, c is specific heat of the substance, ΔT is delta T, the change in temperature.  

ΔT = 75 - 20 = 55 C.  

Solve the equation for m  

m = Q/ cΔT

Mass = 12500 / (55 × 4200)

        = 0.054 kg or 54 g

What happens in a chemical change that does not occur in a physical change?
Andrej [43]

Answer:

In a chemical reaction, there is a change in the composition of the substances in question; in a physical change there is a difference in the appearance, smell, or simple display of a sample of matter without a change in composition. Although we call them physical "reactions," no reaction is actually occurring.
