A piece of lumber is 7.60cm long. What is it’s length in millimetres and in inches?

MrRissso [65]

Explanation:

Since 10mm is 1cm

Therefore 7.60cm is 760mm

Since 1 inch is 2.54cm

Therefore 7.60cm is 3.10 inches

Refer to the periodic table tool and write the electron configurations of the following elements in both long and short terms

ahrayia [7]

Answer:-

Carbon

[He] 2s2 2p2

1s2 2s2 2p2.

potassium

[Ar] 4s1.

1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s1

Explanation:-

For writing the short form of the electronic configuration we look for the nearest noble gas with atomic number less than the element in question. We subtract the atomic number of that noble gas from the atomic number of the element in question.

The extra electrons we then assign normally starting with using the row after the noble gas ends. We write the name of that noble gas in [brackets] and then write the electronic configuration.

For carbon with Z = 6 the nearest noble gas is Helium. It has the atomic number 2. Subtracting 6 – 2 we get 4 electrons. Helium lies in 1st row. Starting with 2, we get 2s2 2p2.

So the short term electronic configuration is [He] 2s2 2p2

Similarly, for potassium with Z = 19 the nearest noble gas is Argon. It has the atomic number 18. Subtracting 19-18 we get 1 electron. Argon lies in 3rd row. Starting with 4, we get 4s1.

So the short electronic configuration is [Ar] 4s1.

For long term electronic configuration we must write the electronic configuration of the noble gas as well.

So for Carbon it is 1s2 2s2 2p2.

For potassium it is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s1
