The answer is 1s² 2s²2p⁶ 3s²3p⁶ 4s²3d¹⁰4p⁶ 5s²4d¹⁰

In atomic physics and quantum chemistry, the electron configuration is the distribution of electrons of an atom or molecule (or other physical structure) in atomic or molecular orbitals.

Answer:

1s² 2s²2p⁶ 3s²3p⁶ 4s²3d¹⁰4p⁶ 5s²4d¹⁰

Explanation:

Cd is the last element in the 4d block of the Periodic Table (see Figure).

It has the electron configuration of Kr, plus filled 5s and 4d subshells.

Thus, its electron configuration is

1s² 2s²2p⁶ 3s²3p⁶ 4s²3d¹⁰4p⁶ 5s²4d¹⁰

When a mixture of 12.0 g of acetylene (c2h2 and 12.0 g of oxygen (o2 is ignited, the resultant combustion reaction produces co2
valina [46]
The product of the complete combustion of any fuel (in this case, acetylene) are indeed water and carbon dioxide. 
Balancing the combustion reaction,
                           C2H2 +(5/2) O2 --> 2CO2 + H2O
The number of moles of C2H2 will be,
                        (12 g) x (1 mole/26 g) = 6/13 mole
Then, the number of moles of O2 is,
                         (12 g) x (1 mole/32 g) = 3/8 mole
Therefore the limiting reaction is the O2. Getting the amount of CO2 and H2O produced from balancing,
             CO2 = (3/8 moles) x (2 moles CO2/ 5/2 mole O2)(44 g/ 1 mole) = 52.8 g
             H2O = (3/8 moles) x (1 mole / 5/2 mole O2)(18 g / 1 mole) = 2.7 g

7. The nuclear model and the solar system model both show atoms with electrons circling around
Keith_Richards [23]

These models are similar because "both the nuclear model and the solar system model have concept of nucleus, electron, positively charged nucleus at center and electrons orbiting around the nucleus".

<u>Explanation:</u>

The points which showcase similarities among both the atomic structure and the composition of the solar system are like the large percentage of the mass centered in the core which is the nucleus or the sun. Attractive forces bring the structure together by application of electromagnetic force or gravitational force.

The existence of the external objects influences the stable state of other surrounding objects as suggested by Pauli theory of exclusion and gravitational disturbance. Overall on the basis of the view only, in both the model their is similarity like atomic model speaks about electrons orbiting the nucleus similar to planets orbiting the sun.

Help Please. I don't really understand how to figure this out.
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

Cl2

Explanation:

Cl2 is a covalent molecule because it contains 2 non-metal elements.

It is non-polar because both elements have the same level of electrostatic attraction (remember that electrostatic attraction is the tendency to steel an electron from an element with lower a  lower electrostatic force)

In Cl2 since there are only 2 molecules that are the exact same there is no overall dipole (which means that one end of the molecule is slightly positive or negative charge)

If the molecule replaced one Cl or something else then it would be non-polar since one element will be more electrostatic than the other and one region of the molecule will have a slightly positive or negative charge, unless the molecule is symmetrical like CH4.

For CH4 (methane) if you drew this as a lewis structure the Carbon would be surrounded by 4 hydrogen atoms meaning the overall dipole will be cancelled out since the molecule is symmetrical.

You may not understand the last part but just know that:

If there are 2 of the same atoms in the molecule (Cl2) then it is non-polar

If there are 2 non-metals then the bond is covalent

Water is always polar

A solution of 20.0 g of which hydrated salt dissolved in
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

(D) Na₂SO₄•10H₂O (M = 286).

Explanation:

  • The depression in freezing point of water by adding a solute is determined using the relation:

<em>ΔTf = i.Kf.m,</em>

Where, ΔTf is the depression in freezing point of water.

i is van't Hoff factor.

Kf is the molal depression constant.

m is the molality of the solute.

  • Since, Kf and m is constant for all the mentioned salts. So, the depression in freezing point depends strongly on the van't Hoff factor (i).
  • van't Hoff factor is the ratio between the actual concentration of particles produced when the substance is dissolved and the concentration of a substance as calculated from its mass.

(A) CuSO₄•5H₂O:

CuSO₄ is dissociated to Cu⁺² and SO₄²⁻.

So, i = dissociated ions/no. of particles = 2/1 = 2.

B) NiSO₄•6H₂O:

NiSO₄ is dissociated to Ni⁺² and SO₄²⁻.

So, i = dissociated ions/no. of particles = 2/1 = 2.

(C) MgSO₄•7H₂O:

MgSO₄ is dissociated to Mg⁺² and SO₄²⁻.

So, i = dissociated ions/no. of particles = 2/1 = 2.

(D) Na₂SO₄•10H₂O:

Na₂SO₄ is dissociated to 2 Na⁺ and SO₄²⁻.

So, i = dissociated ions/no. of particles = 3/1 = 3.

∴ The salt with the high (i) value is Na₂SO₄•10H₂O.

So, the highest ΔTf resulted by adding Na₂SO₄•10H₂O salt.
