Answer:
2
Explanation:
Each orbital can hold two electrons. One spin-up and one spin-down.
The answer would be 2+ since the atomic number represents how many protons are in the element. In this case, there are 16 protons, but only 14 electrons, which means there are an additional 2 protons, hence the 2+ charge on the ion.
Electronic configuration of Rb: 2.8.8.8.8.3
Valence electron is 3....
Answer:
Ranked from lowest to highest:
Sulfur - 999.6 kJ/mol
Hydrogen - 13.5984 kJ/mol
Oxygen - 13.6181 kJ/mol
Fluorine - 17.4228 kJ/mol
The empirical formula is XeO₃.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Assume 100 g of the compound is present. This changes the percents to grams:
Given mass in g:
Xenon = 73.23 g
Oxygen = 26.77 g
We have to convert it to moles.
Xe = 73.23/
131.293 = 0.56 moles
O = 26.77/ 16 = 1.67 moles
Divide by the lowest value, seeking the smallest whole-number ratio:
Xe = 0.56/ 0.56 = 1
O = 1.67/ 0.56 = 2.9 ≈3
So the empirical formula is XeO₃.
