Answer:

Electrons get farther from the nucleus.

Explanation:

By going from the top to the bottom of a group, the atomic number increases. That would mean that:

  • The number of orbitals increases, as there are more electrons.
  • A higher atomic number implies an increasing number of neutrons.
  • As there are more electrons, they get farther from the nucleus. The farther an electron is from the nucleus, the easier it is for the electron to be removed from the atom.

Answer:

1= Magnesium

2 = Option 3 =  1s² 2s² 2p⁶

Explanation:

An electrically neutral atom consist of equal number of protons and electrons.

The answer for 1st q is magnesium because the electronic configuration showed twelve number of electrons. The atomic number of magnesium is twelve that's why this configuration is of Mg.

Mg₁₂ =  1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s²

The second answer is option three because has atomic number ten and third electronic configuration have ten electrons.

Ne₁₀ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶

It is stable electronic configuration. Neon is inert because of this electronic configuration. The outer most shell is completely filled.

Sodium hydrogen carbonate NaHCO3, also known as sodium bicarbonate or "baking soda", can be used to relieve acid indigestion. Ac
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

1.4952 grams of sodium bicarbonate she  would need to ingest to neutralize this much HCl.

Explanation:

Moles (n)=Molarity(M)\times Volume (L)

Moles of hydrochloric acid = n

Volume of hydrochloric acid solution = 200.0 mL = 0.200 L

Molarity of the hydrochloric acid = 0.089 M

n=0.089 M\times 0.200 L=0.0178 mol of HCL

HCl(aq)+NaHCO_3(aq)\rightarrow NaCl(aq)+H_2O(l)+CO_2(g)

According to reaction, 1 mole of HCl is neutralized by 1 mole of sodium bicarbonate.

Then 0.0178 moles of HCl wil be neutralized by :

\frac{1}{1}\times 0.0178 mol=0.0178 mol of sodium bicarbonate

Mass of 0.0178 moles of sodium bicarbonate:

0.0178 mol × 72 g/mol = 1.4952 g

1.4952 grams of sodium bicarbonate she  would need to ingest to neutralize this much HCl.

when carbon dioxide is bubbled through lime water the solution first turn milky and to colour less . Explain why these changes o
Annette [7]

Answer:

When excess of carbon dioxide is passed in lime water, calcium carbonate is converted to calcium bicarbonate which is soluble, hence the milkiness due to calcium carbonate disappears.

Explanation:

Ca(OH)2+CO2 → CaCO3 (Milkiness) ↓+H2O

CaCO3+H2O+CO2 → Ca(HCO3)2 (soluble)

What is the molar mass of a compound?
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

The molar mass of a compound is The mass in grams of 1 mole of the compound (Option A)

Explanation:

Let's take ammonia as an example (NH3)

Mass of N = 14 g

Mass of H = 1 g

Molar mass of ammonia is Mass of N + (Mass of H).3

14 + 3 = 17 g/m

Ammonia is a compound that has 1 mol of N, plus 3 moles of H (see the formula)

The number of atoms in 1 mole of the compound --> This is Avogadro

What is the approximate geometry around each oxygen atom
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

correct option: A. tetrahedral

Explanation:

when we talk about hydrogen bonding in water due to oxygen then need to check the number of lone pair available for hydrogen bonding because hydrogen bond form between lone pair of oxygen and hydrogen of other water molecule so there are two lone pair which forms hydrogen bond and there are also two other covalent bond with hydrogen of same molecule so total number is 4 it means they will form a tetrahedral geometry
