What are you suppose to do for number 8?
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

See the images below  

Step-by-step explanation:

To draw a dot diagram of an atom, you locate the element in the Periodic Table and figure out how many valence electrons it has. Then you distribute the electrons as dots around the atom,

a. Silicon.

Si is in Group 14, so it has four valence electrons.

b. Xenon

Xenon is in Group 18, so it has eight valence electrons. We group them as four pairs around the xenon atom.

c. Calcium

Calcium is in Group 2, so it has two valence electrons. They are in a single subshell, so we write them as a pair on the calcium atom.

d. Water

Oxygen is in Group 16, so it has six valence electrons. The hydrogen atoms each contribute one electron, so there are eight valence electrons.

Chemists often use a dash to represent a pair of electrons in a bond.

Which of these is an isoelectronic series? question 7 options: 1) na+, k+, rb+, cs+ 2) k+, ca2+, ar, s2– 3) na+, mg2+, s2–, cl–
-BARSIC- [3]
An isoelectronic series is where all of the ions listed have the same number of electrons in their atoms. When an atom has net charge of zero or neutral, it has equal number of protons and electrons. Hence, it means that the atomic number = no. of protons = no. of electrons. If these atoms become ions, they gain a net charge of + or -. Positive ions are cations. This means that they readily GIVE UP electrons, whereas negative ions (anions) readily ACCEPT electrons. So, to know which of these are isoelectronic, let's establish first the number of electron in a neutral atom from the periodic table:

Na=11; K=19; Rb=37; Cs = 55; Ca=20; S=16; Mg=12; Li=3; Be=4; B=5; C=6, Ar = 18

A. Na⁺: 11-1 = 10 electrons
     K⁺: 19 - 1 = 18 electrons
     Rb⁺: 37-1 = 36 electrons

B. K⁺: 19 - 1 = 18 electrons
    Ca²⁺: 20 - 2 = 18 electrons
    Ar:  18 electrons
    S²⁻:  16 +2 = 18 electrons

C. Na⁺: 11-1 = 10 electrons
    Mg²⁺: 12 - 2 = 10 electrons
     S²⁻:  16 +2 = 18 electrons

D. Li=3 electrons
    Be=4 electrons
    B=5 electrons
    C=6 electrons

The answer is letter B.

HELP ITS DUE IN AN HOUR!!<br><br> What is a lattice position?<br><br> Explain
Andrew [12]

Explanation:

Crystallography. an arrangement in space of isolated points (lattice points ) in a regular pattern, showing the positions of atoms, molecules, or ions in the structure of a crystal.

If an atom experiences sufficient thermal activation, it can move to a neighboring lattice position.4 If the vibration frequency of the atom is v and the atom has Z nearest neighbors, the total number of jump attempts is vZ. However, only a small fraction of the attempts will be successful, with a probability depending on the ratio between the necessary activation energy for a single jump QD and the thermal activation kBT. The effective jump frequency ΓD is then

(5.6)

With each successful jump, the atom travels one atomic distance λ and the total traveling distance in unit time is thus ΓDλ. Substituting the jump frequency ΓD into the expression for the root mean square displacement of a random walker [equation (5.5)] and using the spatial coordinate r leads to
