The answer is <span>D.when the aim is to show electron distributions in shells. This is because there are some instances when elements don't possess a regular or normal electron configuration. There are those who have special electron configurations wherein a lower subshell isn't completely filled before occupying a higher subshell. It is best to visualize such cases using the orbital notation.</span>

balance the reaction equation describing the biological formation of glucose (c6h12o6) with the lowest set of whole number coeff
Ivan

The given reaction equation for photosynthesis whereby, in the presence of light energy from the Sun and chlorophyll, plants synthesize glucose from carbon dioxide and water.  As water is present as a reactant, it doesn’t also appear on the ’products’ side of the equation. So:

Water + carbon dioxide > glucose + oxygen.

As glucose contains 6 carbon atoms, these must be obtained from 6 molecules of CO2. So, overall:

6CO2(g) + 6H2O(l) > C6H12O6(aq) + 6O2(g).

What is photosynthesis?

Photosynthesis is the process  plants and other organisms use to convert light energy into chemical energy, which is later released through cellular respiration to power the activity of the organism.

Therefore, This is the equation for photosynthesis whereby, in the presence of light energy from the Sun and chlorophyll, plants synthesize glucose from carbon dioxide and water.

In ionic compounds, ________ lose their valence electrons to form positively charged ________. nonmetals, anions metals, polyato
Keith_Richards [23]
Answer:
            <span>In ionic compounds, <u>Metals</u> lose their valence electrons to form positively charged Cations. 

Explanation:
                   Metals have the ability to loose elctrons readily. For example metals of Group IA and Group IIA readily looses electrons in order to obtain Noble Gas Configuration. On the other hand Non-metals tends to gain electrons and acquire negative charge. While Ions are made when an an element gain or loose electrons. After loosing electrons element get positive charge which is called as Cation while on gaining electron it gets negative charge called as Anion.</span>

Well, we might as well try a similar question. Magnesium metal reacts with hydrochloric acid to produce hydrogen gas and an aque
Andrei [34K]

Answer: Magnesium Mg

Explanation:

Oxidization is the process by which a substance either gains oxygen or losses electrons.

The chemical reaction of the above is denoted by,

Mg(s) + 2HCl(aq) -----> MgCl2(aq) + H2(g)

Mg went from a 0 to a +2 state which would mean that it lost electrons.

It was therefore oxidized.

Please do react or comment if you need clarification or if the answer helped you. This can help other users as well. Thank you.

How many formula units are there in 450 g of Na2S04?
Mashutka [201]

Formula units in 450 g of Na_{2} So_{4} is 1.93 × 10²⁴ formula units.

<u>Explanation:</u>

First we have to find the number of moles in the given mass by dividing the mass by its molar mass as,

$\frac{450 g}{142.04 g/mol} =  3.2 moles

Now, we have to multiply the number of moles of Na₂SO₄ by the Avogadro's number, 6.022 × 10²³ formula units/mol, so we will get the number of formula units present in the given mass of the compound.

3.2 mol × 6.022 × 10²³ = 1.93 × 10²⁴ formula units.

So, 1.93 × 10²⁴ formula units is present in 450g of Na₂SO₄.
