dmitriy555 [2]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

In atomic physics and quantum chemistry, the electron configuration is the distribution of electrons of an atom or molecule in atomic or molecular orbitals. For example, the electron configuration of the neon atom is 1s² 2s² 2p⁶, using the notation explained below

Explanation: welcome

What is the single factor that classifies an element as a transition metal?
klasskru [66]
The answer is b) the highest occupied orbital is a “d”orbital.
Transition metals are metals where the highest energy electrons partially fill the d subshells. There are some elements with complete d subshells but on forming cations they have incomplete d subshells.
These transition metals have some properties that are different from the other metals .

An impurity sometimes found in Ca₃(PO₄)₂ is Fe₂O₃, which is removed during the production of phosphorus as ferrophosphorus (Fe₂P
Citrus2011 [14]

This impurity is troubling from an economic standpoint because it lead to decrease in the yield of phosphorus

  • Ferrophosphorus is a byproduct of phosphorus production in submerged-arc furnaces , by their reduction with carbon. It is formed from the iron oxide impurities.
  • Iron impurities present in the calcium phosphate will be precipitated out as the iron phosphate which eventually will lead to the decrease in the yield of phosphorous during the production of phosphorous.

Thus we can conclude that Fe₂P causes decrease in yield

What is the empirical formula of a compound with a percent composition of 22.5% Phosphorous and 77.5% Chlorine?
sashaice [31]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf PCl_3}}

Explanation:

We are given the percent composition: 22.5% phosphorus and 77.5% chlorine.

We can assume there are 100 grams of this compound. We choose 100 because we can simply use the percentages as the masses.

  • 22.5 g P
  • 77.5 g Cl

Next, convert these masses to moles, using the molar masses found on the Periodic Table.

  • P: 30.974 g/mol
  • Cl: 35.45 g/mol

Use the molar masses as ratios and multiply by the number of grams. 22.5 \ g \ P  * \frac {1 \ mol \ P }{30.974 \ g \ P}= \frac {22.5 \ mol \ P }{ 30.974} = 0.7264157035 \ mol \ P

77.5 \ g \ Cl  * \frac {1 \ mol \ Cl }{35.45 \ g \ Cl}= \frac {77.5 \ mol \ Cl }{ 35.45} \ =2.186177715 \ mol \ Cl

Divide both of the moles by the smallest number of moles to find the mole ratio.

\frac {0.7264157035} {0.7264157035} = 1

\frac {2.186177715}{0.7264157035}=3.009540824 \approx 3

The mole ratio is about 1 P: 3 Cl, so the empirical formula is written as:<u> PCl₃</u>
