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.

The basic building blocks of a protein are
snow_lady [41]


The building  blocks of protein are amino acids.

Amino acids are a class of organic compounds that contain at least one amino group, -NH2, and carboxyl group, -COOH.

Alpha amino acids , RCH(NH2)COOH, are the building blocks  from which proteins are constructed.

The NH group of one amino acid and the COOH  group of the other amino acid are joined together and a peptide bond -CONH-  is formed between the two amino acids and the product is called a dipeptide.
