Does beryllium (Be) or Sodium (Na) have the same electron arrangement as Magnesium (Mg)? Why?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Finger [1]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Na has the most similar configuration.

Explanation:

Na electron configuration: 1s²2s²2p⁶3s¹ or [Ne] 3s₁

Mg electron configuration: 1s²2s²2p⁶3s² or [Ne] 3s²

Be electron configuration: 1s²2s² or [He] 2s²

This is because Na and Mg are right next to each other in the same period (horizontal).

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

The reactant/reagent that would be most atom economical is EtI (Ethy Iodide) and KOH (potassium oxide) as base

This is because the iodo group are weak base hence they have a good leaving character (i.e they are unstable on their own ) which would increase the rate of reaction and the strong base KOH give the most atom economical

How do the Carnivorous plants survive without soil?
Mkey [24]
Answer:

Carnivorous plants are easy to grow, if you follow a few, simple rules.

Wet all of the time.
Mineral-free water.
Mineral-free soil.
Lots of light.


Wet all of the time.
Carnivorous plants are native to bogs and similar nutrient-poor habitats. As a consequence, the plants live in conditions that are constantly damp. To grow healthy carnivorous plants, it is important to duplicate their habitat as closely as possible. Keep the soil wet or at least damp all of the time. The easiest way to do this is use the tray method. Set the pots in a tray or saucer, and keep water in it at all times. Pitcher plants can grow in soggy soil with the water level in the saucer as deep as 1/2 the pot, but most carnivorous plants prefer damp to wet soil, so keep the water at about 1/4 inch and refill as soon as it is nearly gone. Water from below, by adding water to the tray, rather than watering the plant. This will avoid washing away the sticky muscilage of the sundews and butterworts and keep from closing the flytraps with a false alarm.


Mineral-free water.
Always use mineral-free water with your carnivorous plants, such as rainwater or distilled water. Try keeping a bucket near the downspout to collect rainwater. Distilled water can be purchased at the grocery store, but avoid bottled drinking water. There are simply too many minerals in it. The condensation line from an air conditioner or heat pump is another source of mineral-free water. Reverse-osmosis water is fine to use. Carnivorous plants grow in nutrient poor soils. The minerals from tap water can “over-fertilize” and “burn out” the plants. In a pinch, tap water will work for a short while, but flush out the minerals with generous portions of rainwater, when it is available.


Mineral-free soil.
The nutrient poor soils to which the carnivorous plants have adapted are often rich in peat and sand. This can be duplicated with a soil mixture of sphagnum peat moss and horticultural sand. Be sure to check the peat label for sphagnum moss. Other types will not work well. The sand should be clean and washed. Play box sand is great, and so is horticultural sand. Avoid “contractor’s sand” which will contain fine dust, silt, clay and other minerals. Never use beach sand or limestone based sand. The salt content will harm the plants. The ratio of the mix is not critical, 1 part peat with 1 part sand works well for most carnivorous plants. Flytraps prefer a bit more sand, and nepenthes prefer much more peat. Use plastic pots, as terra cotta pots will leach out minerals over time and stress your plants.

What is the parent isotope when Cl-33 is formed during a beta decay?
zzz [600]

Answer:

33/16 S

Explanation:

In beta decay, the atomic number of the daughter nucleus increases by one unit while the mass of the daughter nucleus remains the same as that of the parent nucleus.

Hence, if we know that a beta decay has occurred, then the parent nucleus must have the same mass as its daughter nucleus but have an atomic number that is less than that of the daughter nucleus by only one unit, hence the answer above.
