This is an incomplete question, here is a complete question.

Determine whether each of the following electron configurations is an inert gas, a halogen, an alkali metal, an alkaline earth metal, or a transition metal. Justify your choices.

(a) $1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^5$

(b) $1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^63d^74s^2$

(c) $1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^63d^{10}4s^24p^6$

(d) $1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^63d^4s^1$

Answer :

(a) $1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^5$ → Halogen

(b) $1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^63d^74s^2$ → Transition metal

(c) $1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^63d^{10}4s^24p^6$ → Transition metal

(d) $1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^63d^4s^1$ → Transition metal

Explanation :

Inert gas : These are the gases which lie in group 18.

Their general electronic configuration is: $ns^2np^6$ where n is the outermost shell.

Halogen : These are the elements which lie in group 17.

Their general electronic configuration is: $ns^2np^5$ where n is the outermost shell.

An alkali metal : These are the elements which lie in group 1.

Their general electronic configuration is: $ns^1$ where n is the outermost shell.

An alkaline earth metal : These are the elements which lie in group 2.

Their general electronic configuration is: $ns^2$ where n is the outermost shell.

Transition elements : They are the elements which lie between 's' and 'p' block elements. These are the elements which lie in group 3 to 12. The valence electrons of these elements enter d-orbital.

Their general electronic configuration is: $(n-1)d^{1-10}ns^{0-2}$ where n is the outermost shell.

(a) $1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^5$

The element having this electronic configuration belongs to the halogen family.

(b) $1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^63d^74s^2$

The element having this electronic configuration belongs to the transition family.

(c) $1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^63d^{10}4s^24p^6$

The element having this electronic configuration belongs to the transition family.

(d) $1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^63d^4s^1$

The element having this electronic configuration belongs to the transition family.

Which of the following would NOT diffuse through the plasma membrane by means of simple diffusion?1 oxygen2 glucose3 a steroid h

Mumz [18]

Answer:

Option 2= Glucose

Explanation:

Cell membrane is made up of two phospholipid layers and each contain phosphate head and fatty acid or lipid tails. the head is present between the outer and inner boundaries and tail is present in between. The small non- polar molecules can pass the membrane through simple diffusion. This lipid tail restrict the passage of polar molecules including water soluble substances like glucose. However, transmembranes are present that allow the molecules to inter that are blocked by the tails.

Facilitated diffusion:

it is a type of diffusion in which caries protein without using the cellular energy shuttle the molecules to the cell membrane. Glucose is bind on the carrier protein ,change the shape and transport it from one to another side of membrane. In order to absorb the glucose red blood cells use this kind of diffusion.

Primary active transport:

The cells that are present along small intestine use this type of transport to pump the glucose inside the cell. The primary active transport require energy to transport the glucose inside.

Secondary active transport:

It is another method of transport of glucose into the cell. This method can not use ATP but it is based on concentration gradient of the sodium that provide electro chemical energy for the glucose transport.

8. What volume (ml) of a 5.45 M lead nitrate solution must be diluted to 820.7 ml to make a

Ganezh [65]

212 ml of lead nitrate is required to prepare a dilute solution of 820.7 ml of lead nitrate.

Answer:

Option A.

Explanation:

Similar to Avagadro's law, there is another law termed as dilution law. As the product of volume and normality of the reactant is equal to the product of volume and normality of the product from the Avagadro's law. In dilution law, it will be as product of volume and concentration of the solute of the reactant is equal to the product of volume and concentration of solution.

$C_{1} V_{1} =C_{2} V_{2}$

So, as per the given question C1 = 5.45 M of lead nitrate and V1 has to be found. While C2 is 1.41 M of lead nitrate and V2 is 820.7 ml.

Then, $(5.45*V_{1} ) = (820.7*1.41)$

$V_{1}=\frac{820.7*1.41}{5.45}= 212.33 ml$

So nearly 212 ml of lead nitrate is required to prepare a dilute solution of 820.7 ml of lead nitrate.
