<h3>
Answer:</h3>
Al- [Ne] 3s²3p¹
As- [Ar] 4s²3d¹⁰ 4p³
Explanation:
- Electron configuration of an element shows the arrangement of electrons in the energy levels or orbitals in the atom.
- Noble-gas configuration involves use of noble gases to write the configuration of other elements.
- This is done by identifying the atomic number of the element and then identifying the noble gas that comes before that particular element on the periodic table.
- Aluminium: The atomic number of Al is 13. The noble gas before Aluminium is Neon which has 10 electrons. Therefore the remaining 3 electrons fills up the 3s and 3p sub orbitals.
- Thus, the noble-gas configuration of Al is [Ne] 3s²3p¹
2. Arsenic, Atomic number is 33
- Noble gas before Arsenic is Ar,. Argon has 17 electrons, then the remaining electrons fills up the 4s, 3d and 4p sub-orbitals.
- Thus, the noble-gas configuration of As is [Ar] 4s²3d¹⁰ 4p³
C. a chemical reaction occurred when the two liquids were mixed
Zn⁰ ----> Zn⁺² + 2e⁻ - oxidation
Hg⁺² + 2e⁻ ----> Hg⁰ - reduction
Zn loses 2 moles of electrons , and Hg gains 2 mole of electrons.
So, number of moles of electrons gained and lost during reaction is equal.
Answer:
It would be to the fourth power
