Answer:

(a) ₁₉K: 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s¹

(b) ₁₀Ne: 1s² 2s² 2p⁶

---

(a) 3

(b) 6

(c) 7

Explanation:

We can state the ground-state electron configuration for each element following Aufbau's principle.

(a) ₁₉K: 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s¹

(b) ₁₀Ne: 1s² 2s² 2p⁶

Second part

(a) Al belongs to Group 13 in the Periodic Table. It has 13-10=3 electrons in the valence shell.

(b) O belongs to Group 16 in the Periodic Table. It has 16-10=6 electrons in the valence shell.

(c) F belongs to Group 17 in the Periodic Table. It has 17-10=7 electrons in the valence shell.

Why is performing extraction with several small portions of a solvent more officient than a single extraction with the same tota
elena55 [62]

With various extractions the amount of material left in the trash will be lower, ergo the extraction will be more perfect. Various extractions with fewer amounts of solvent are more efficient than a single extraction with a huge amount of solvent.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Surely multiple extractions are better than the single large extraction. Because extraction is about maximizing outside field communication between the two solvents, and you easily get more surface area contact with fewer amounts.

You can merge two smaller portions quicker and more completely than with large portions.

How many total valence electrons are available for the Lewis Dot structure of H2S?
Anettt [7]

Answer:

8 Valence Electrons

Explanation:

  • There are 2 atoms of Hydrogen and 1 atom of Sulfur in the compound.
  • Each Hydrogen atom has 1 electron (which is the valence electron).
  • Sulfur has six valence electrons.
  • Therefore, there is a total of eight valence electrons in H2S.

The molar mass of vitamin A (C20H30O).
vivado [14]
Molar mass of C:  12.011 g/mol
The equation says C20, which means there are 20 carbon atoms in each molecule of Vitamin A.  So, we multiply 12.011 by 20 to get 240.22 g/mol carbon.

Molar mass of H:  1.0079 g/mol
The equation says C30, which means there are 30 hydrogen atoms in each molecule of Vitamin A. So, we multiply 1.0079 by 30 to get 30.237 g/mol hydrogen.

Molar mass of O: 15.999 g/mol
The equation says O without a number, which means there is only one oxygen atom in each molecule of Vitamin A.  So, we leave O at 15.999 g/mol.

Then, just add it up:
240.22 g/mol C + 30.237 g/mol H + 15.999 g/mol O = 286.456 g/mol C20H30O

So, the molar mass of Vitamin A, C20H30O, is approximately 286.5 g/mol.

Calculate 4 Srxn for this equation. Round to the
masya89 [10]

Answer:

On edge nuity, it is 79.

Explanation:

Please read the explanation.

Since u have no coefficients, this problem is super easy.

You just add your products, 115.5+69.91 = 185.41

Then add your reactants: 49.8+56.5= 106.3

Then subtract your reactants from your product and round to the nearest whole number.

106.3-185.41=79

It's really easy. Once u understand it, you can do any problem like this. If there is coefficients, just multiply the coefficient by the amount given to you in the problem.

bekas [8.4K]
The chemical formula of aluminium nitrate is - Al(NO₃)₃
cation is Al³⁺
anion is NO₃⁻
One Al atom binds to three nitrate groups 
the options given are 
2. <span>It has three aluminum (Al) atoms 
this is incorrect as there's only one Al atom 
3. </span><span>It has one NO3 group.
this is incorrect as there are three nitrate groups
4. </span><span>It has nine nitrogen (N) atoms
there are only 3 N atoms therefore this too is incorrect 
</span>therefore the correct answer is - 
It has three NO₃<span> groups
