The  electron distribution in the Si atom : D. 2,8,4

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

The maximum number of electrons that can be filled in the nth electron shell is 2n²(n=shell)

  • K shell (n = 1) maximum 2 x 1² = 2 electrons
  • L shell (n = 2) maximum 2 x 2² = 8 electrons
  • M shell (n = 3) maximum 2 x 3² = 18 electrons
  • N shell (n = 4) maximum 2 x 4² = 32 electrons

Electron configuration of Si : 1s² 2s2²2p6⁶3s²3p² = 14 electron

The electron distribution :

K shell = 2

L shell = 8

M shell = 4

The equation below shows the relationship between the temperature in degrees Celsius, C, and degrees Fahrenheit, F.
anyanavicka [17]
The initial equation is <span>F = (9/5)C + 32. We are asked to get the formula to solve for C. So the idea here is to isolate C on the other side, where F is currently located. 

1. Subtract 32 on both sides. 
2. Divide 9/5 on both sides. 

You should get </span><span>C = 5 over 9(F – 32) as your answer. </span>

In looking at the bolded atoms in the answer choices, which pair consists of molecules having the same geometry?
ICE Princess25 [194]
Correct Answer: option C:The pair which consist of molecules having the same geometry is CH2CCI2 and CH2CH2.

Reason: 
Both of the above molecules contain double bonds. They are characterized by  sp^2 hybridization. Also, they possess a trigonal planar geometry. In trigonal planar system, the molecule consist of three equally spaced sp^2 hybrid orbitals, which arranged at angle 120 degree.

3. A gram food sample is burned completely in a calorimeter that contains 1000. of water The temperature of the water increases
lidiya [134]

The food has 23629.64 cal

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

mass = 1000 g of water

temperature increases 23.65 * C

Required

The energy of the food

Solution

Heat absorbed by water :

Q = m . c . Δt

Q = 1000 g x 4.184 J/g°C x 23.65 °C

Q = 98951.6 J

1 Joules = 0.2388 Calories

98951.6 J = 23629.64 cal
