Answer:
1) Ca: [Ar]4s²
2) Pm: [Xe]6s²4f⁵
Explanation:
1) Ca:
Its atomic number is 20. So it has 20 protons and 20 electrons.
Since it is in the row (period) 4 the noble gas before it is Ar, and the electron configuration is that of Argon whose atomic number is 18.
So, you have two more electrons (20 - 18 = 2) to distribute.
Those two electrons go the the orbital 4s.
Finally, the electron configuration is [Ar] 4s².
2) Pm
The atomic number of Pm is 61, so it has 61 protons and 61 electrons.
Pm is in the row (period) 6. So, the noble gas before Pm is Xe.
The atomic number of Xe is 54.
Therefore, you have to distribute 61 - 54 = 7 electrons on the orbitals 6s and 4f.
The resultant distribution for Pm is: [Xe]6s² 4f⁵.
Answer: 72 grams of 
are needed to completely burn 19.7 g 
Explanation:
According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance weighs equal to molecular mass and contains avogadro's number 
of particles.
To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:
Putting in the values we get:
According to stoichiometry:
1 mole of 
requires 5 moles of oxygen
0.45 moles of require= 
moles of oxygen
Mass of 
72 grams of are needed to completely burn 19.7 g
Answer:
2.5% of the earth's fresh water is unavailable: locked up in glaciers, polar ice caps, atmosphere, and soil; highly polluted; or lies too far under the earth's surface to be extracted at an affordable cost.
