Answer:

Different objects appear to be different colors, because we see color by light bouncing off an object and reflecting or transmitting into our eye. The amount of light that reflects or transmits into our eye depend on the color that we will see.

Which of the following models represents an atom that is more reactive than the

Zanzabum

Answer:

Model A

Explanation:

Model A represents an atom that is more reactive than the others represented.

Valence electrons actually determine the reactivity of elements. They also determine the properties of elements.

Elements with one valence electron are highly reactive because they need low energy to remove them. They can either gain more electrons to become stable or they share/give out their electrons.

Therefore, Model A is the correct answer because it has one valence electron and its valence electron is farther from the nucleus thereby this makes it more reactive.

Use the periodic table to identify the element indicated by each electron configuration by typing in the

EleoNora [17]

Answer:

1s22s22p6: Neon (Ne)

1s22s22p63s23p3: Phosphorous (P)

1s22s22p63s23p64s1: Potassium (K)

1s22s22p63s23p64s2(im not sure what 308 is supposed to be): Calcium (Ca)

1s22s22p63s23p64s23d104p65s24d3: there is no pure element that ends 4d3 that I know of so this can either be Zirconium(Zr) if it ends in 4d2 or Niobium (Nb) if it ends in 4d4

Explanation:

you can look at the periodic table and the trends to find the rough idea of where the electron configuration ends, there are helpful articles and images on these, i attached an image that may help. After that you can look at the atomic number to find the number of electrons for a pure element and use the electron subshell pattern thing to find the exact number
