When an electron temporarily occupies an energy state greater than its ground state, it is in an excited state. An electron can become excited if it is given extra energy, such as if it absorbs a photon, or packet of light, or collides with a nearby atom or particle.

When an electron quickly occupies an strength state increased than its ground state, it is in an excited state. An electron can end up excited if it is given greater energy, such as if it absorbs a photon, or packet of light, or collides with a close by atom or particle.

How many moles are in 83.1g of CaBr2​
9966 [12]

Answer:

0.416 mol CaBr₂

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Chemistry - Atomic Structure</u>

  • Reading a Periodic Table
  • Using Dimensional Analysis

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

83.1 g CaBr₂

<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>

Molar Mass of Ca - 40.08 g/mol

Molar mass of Br - 79.90 g/mol

Molar Mass of CaBr₂ - 40.08 + 2(79.90) = 199.88 g/mol

<u>Step 3: Convert</u>

<u />83.1 \ g \ CaBr_2(\frac{1 \ mol \ CaBr_2}{199.88 \ g \ CaBr_2} ) = 0.415749 mol CaBr₂

<u>Step 4: Check</u>

<em>We are given 3 sig figs. Follow sig fig rules and round.</em>

0.415749 mol CaBr₂ ≈ 0.416 mol CaBr₂

explain using diagrams how potassium forms the compound potassium flouride when it reacts with flourine
Katarina [22]

Answer:

The answer to your question is given below.

Explanation:

Potassium (K) has 19 electrons with electronic configuration of 2, 8, 8, 1.

Fluorine (F) has 9 electrons with electronic configuration of 2, 7.

Fluorine needs 1 electron to complete it's octet configuration.

Hence, potassium (K), will lose 1 electron to fluorine (F) to form potassium ion (K+) with electronic configuration of 2, 8, 8. The fluorine atom (F) will receive the 1 electron from potassium to form the fluoride ion (F-) with electronic configuration of 2, 8.
