Explanation:
Magnesium has atomic number 12. It will be distributed in K, L, M shell in the following way:
K shell can accommodate a maximum of 2 electrons.
L shell can accommodate a maximum of 8 electrons and
M shell will accommodate 2 electrons
So the configuration becomes 2, 8,3
Answer:
A)
<u>4, 7, 4, 6</u>
B)
<u>12 moles</u>

You can turn this into a system of variables which are solvable.
To do this, create variables for the coefficients of each compound in the reaction respectively.
Because to be balanced, the count of atoms in each element of the compound correspond to the coefficient of the variable in that compound so that the count of the left (reactant) side is set equal to the right (product) side.
a corresponds to the coefficient of the first compound, b corresponds to the coefficient of the second compound, c corresponds to the coefficient of the third compound, and d corresponds to the coefficient of the fourth compound.
(Reactant = Product)
Reactant: 1a [N] Product: 1c.
Reactant: 3a [H] Product: 2d.
Reactant: 2b [O] Product: 2c + 1d.
Thus the system is:
1a = 1c
3a = 2d
2b = 2c + 1d.
Then just use the substitution methods to solve.
Answer:
[Ne] 3s2 3p2
Explanation:
Neon (Ne) is the noble gas right before silicon (Si).
Then right after neon is the 3s subshell. It has two electrons and is full.
After 3s comes the 3p subshell, and silicon only has two electrons in the 3p subshell (you can just count the electrons in each subshell on your periodic table).
an atom that has 18 protons, 18 neutrons and 20 neutrons. This atom has mass number of 38
mass number is calculated as number of protons + number on neutrons
therefore the mass number of the atom = 18+20= 38
Since the atom has a electronic configuration of 2.8.8,the atom cannot be negatively or positively charged because it is stable.
The atomic number of the atom is 18 since atomic number is equal to number of protons
Answer:
Mass is the amount of matter in an object and does not change with location.
