Answer:

Explanation:

The Electronic Configuration of the elements is the arrangement of all electrons of an element in energy levels and sub-levels (orbitals).  

There are 7 energy levels, numbered from 1 to 7, and in which electrons are distributed, logically in order according to their energy level. Electrons with less energy will be spinning at level 1. Each level is divided into sub-levels. These sub-levels into which each level is divided can be up to 4. These 4 sub-levels are called: s, p, d, f. In the sub-level s there can only be a maximum of 2 electrons, in p there can be a maximum of 6 electrons, in the sub-level d 10 electrons and finally in the sub-level f there can be a maximum of 14 electrons.

In level 1 there is only one sub-level, which will be the s. In level 2 there are 2 sub-levels, the s and the p. At level 3 there are 3 sub-levels s, p and d. And at level 4 there are 4 sub-levels, the s, the p, the d and the f.

Aufbau's principle is a principle of atomic physics, which explains how electrons are accommodated in their orbits around the nucleus of the atom. This principle states that the filling of these orbitals occurs in increasing order of energy, that is, from the orbitals of lower energy to those of higher energy.

The simplest of the sub-levels is 1s. If you fill the 1s you can start filling the 2s. After the 2s sub-level is satisfied, the 2p can begin to fill and so on. The order is:

1s^{2} 2s^{2} 2p^{6} 3s^{2} 3p^{6} 4s^{2} 3d^{10} 4p^{6}5s^{2}  4d^{10} 5p^{6}6s^{2} 4f^{14} 5d^{10}6p^{6}7s^{2}5f^{14}6d^{10}7p^{6}

In this way, taking into account the atomic number Z of the element (which represents the number of protons of the element, and in a neutral atom it also indicates the number of electrons), the electrons that it has in the orbitals will be placed following the previously established.

For example, for hydrogen, whose atomic number is Z = 1, its electronic configuration would be: 1 s1. Remember that the number 1 that precedes the representative letter of the orbital indicates the level of energy where the electron is located, the letter s indicates the type of orbital where the electron is located, and the exponent 1 indicates the number of electrons that are located in said orbital.

As the Z number of each element increases, the electrons will gradually occupy the orbitals located at the lowest energy levels.

Answer:

Subtract the charge from the atomic number. When an ion has a positive charge, the atom has lost electrons. To calculate the remaining number of electrons, you subtract the amount of extra charge from the atomic number. In the case of a positive ion, there are more protons than electrons.

Calculate ΔH∘f for NO(g) at 435 K, assuming that the heat capacities of reactants and products are constant over the temperature
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

91383 J

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction can be represented as:

\frac{1}{2} N_{2(g)}+\frac{1}{2} O_{2(g)}     ------>NO_{(g)}

Given that:

The standard enthalpy of formation of NO(g) is 91.3 kJ⋅mol−1 at 298.15 K.

The equation below shown the reaction between the enthalpy of reaction at a particular temperature to another.

\delta H^0__{R,T_2} = \delta H^0__{R,T_1} } + \int\limits^{T_2}_{T_1} {\delta C_p(T')} \, dT'

where:

\delta H^0__{R} = enthalpy of reaction

{\delta C_p(T')} = the difference in the heat capacities of the products and the reactants.

∴

\delta H^0__{R,435K} = \delta H^0__{R,298.15K} + \int\limits^{435}_{298.15} {\delta C_p(T')} \, dT'

= 1(91300 J.mol^{-1} ) +\int\limits^{435}_{298.15} [{(29.86)-\frac{1}{2}(29.38)-\frac{1}{2}29.13}]J.K^{-1}.mol^{-1} \, dT'

= 91300 J + (0.605 J.K⁻¹)(435-298.15)K

= 91382.79 J

\delta H^0__{R,435K} ≅ 91383 J

What is the relationship between a scientific theory and a scientific law
grigory [225]
A scientific theory focuses on explaining a phenomenon, while a law will have a generalised statement about said phenomenon. Often times, we use laws to help us develop theories. =)
