Here is the electron configuration for Magnesium. How many total electrons are in the 2nd energy level?

Chemistry
1 answer:
balandron [24]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

8 electrons

Explanation:

Magnesium is present on group 2.

It has 2 valence electrons.

Electronic configuration of magnesium:

Mg₁₂ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s²

1st energy level contain 2 electrons.(1s²)

2nd energy  level contain 8 electrons. (2s² 2p⁶)

3rd energy level contain 2 electrons. (3s²)

3rs energy level of magnesium is called valence shell. It contain two valance electrons. Magnesium can easily donate its two valance electrons and get stable electronic configuration.

It react with halogens and form salt. For example,

Mg + Cl₂   →   MgCl₂

2. What volume will 3.00 moles of nitrogen gas occupy at STP?
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

Answer: V=67.2 L

Explanation:

Ideal Gas Law: PV=nRT

P=1.00 atm (STP)

V=?

n=3.00 mol

R=0.08206Latm/Kmol

T=273.15 K (STP)

To find V, we would manipulate the equation to V=nRT/P

With significan figures, our answer is V=67.2 L.

Consider the balanced equation below.
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

The correct option is (a) H₂S : SO₂ = 2 : 2 and O₂ : H₂O = 3 : 2

<h3>What is molar Ratio ?</h3>

Molar ratio also known as stoichiometry is the ratio in which the reactants and products are either formed or reacted in the given equation

the balanced equation is as follows ;

2H₂S + 3O₂ --> 2SO₂ + 2H₂O

molar ratio can be determined by the coefficients of the compounds in the balanced reaction.

coefficient is the number in front of the chemical compound

coefficients for the compounds in this reaction are as follows ;

  • H₂S - 2
  • O₂ - 3
  • SO₂ - 2
  • H₂O - 2

therefore, correct option is (a) H₂S:SO₂ = 2:2 and O₂:H₂O = 3:2

What is the equilibrium equation for the dissociation of formic acid in water? hcooh (aq) + h2o (l) ⇌ h3o+ (aq) + hcoo- (aq)?
Pani-rosa [81]
Formic acid when in water would dissociate into ions just like any acids. It would dissociate into the hydrogen ion and the formate ion. The equilibrium dissociation equation would be written as:

<span>HCOOH (aq) + H2O (l) ⇌ H+ (aq) + HCOO- (aq)

Formic acid is a weak acid which means that when in aqueous solution it does not completely dissociate into its corresponding ions. Only a certain amount that would be dissociated so in the solution there will be HCOOH, HCOO- and H+ molecules. It is also known as Methanoic acid and an important substance for the synthesis of a number of substances. It is naturally occurring in ants.</span>

For each molecule, specify the polarity of the bonds and the overall polarity of the molecule.
olasank [31]
Each Be–Cl bond is polar because the two atoms have different electronegativities. The number of outer atoms (2) and lone pairs on the central atom (0) indicate that this molecule has a linear geometry. The bonds in a linear molecule are symmetric, and so their dipoles cancel out.

Each O–H bond is polar because the two atoms have different electronegativities. The number of outer atoms (2) and lone pairs on the central atom (2) indicate that this molecule has a bent geometry. The bonds in a bent molecule are asymmetric, and so their dipoles do not cancel out. In addition, the asymmetric arrangement of the lone pairs on O further contribute to the dipole of this molecule.

An O–O or O=O bond is nonpolar because the two atoms have the same electronegativity. Because there is no overall polarity in O2, the molecule is nonpolar.
