An atom with which atomic diagram is most similar to calcium?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Dominik [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Calcium is an element with a total of 20 electrons.

 It has 4 shells with a configuration of:

          2, 8, 8, 2

Option C is the most similar to calcium but the number of shells is not complete.

It still requires two more shells with 8 and two electrons respectively.

Choose the element described by the following electron configuration.
nadezda [96]

Answer:

The answer to your question is Argon

Explanation:

Electron configuration given               1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶

To find the element whose electron configuration is given, we can do it by two methods.

Number 1. Sum all the exponents the result will give you the atomic number of the element.

                      2 + 2 + 6 + 2 + 6 = 18

The element with an atomic number of 18 is Argon.

Number 2. Look at the last terms of the electronic configuration

                      3s² 3p⁶

Number three indicates that this element is in the third period in the periodic table.

Sum the exponents    2 + 6 = 8

Number 8 indicates that this element is the number 8 of that period without considering the transition elements.

The element with these characteristics is Argon.

What happens as a result of the kinetic energy of the particles in a liquid being comparable with the intermolecular attractions
sdas [7]

Answer : Option D) The particles move enough that they are not fixed in place, and the liquid can flow.

Explanation : The kinetic energy of the particles are allowed to move freely and are in motion when in the liquid state whereas the intermolecular particles can just flow; as the intermolecular attractions between the particles allows the liquid to flow by giving them a force to flow.
