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

Chemistry
1 answer:
balandron [24]3 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

An aluminium kettle weighs 1.05 Kg.
Kipish [7]

Answer:Explained

Explanation:

Given

mass of aluminium kettle(m_k)=1.05 kg

(a)Heat capacity of the kettle=Heat capacity of Aluminium

C_{Al}=0.9 J/gm-K

(b)Heat is required to increase the temperature of this kettle from 23^{\circ} to 99 ^{\circ}

Q=m_kc_k\Delta T

Q=1.05\times 0.9\times 1000\times \left ( 99-23\right )

Q=71.82 kJ

(c)If kettle contains water 1.25 L of water i.e. 1.246 kg of water then heat required to raise the temperature from 23 to 99

Q=m_kc_k\left ( \Delta T\right )+m_wc_w\left ( \Delta T\right )

Q=1.05\times 0.9\times 1000\times \left ( 99-23\right )+1.246\times 4.184\times 1000\times \left ( 99-23\right )

Q=71.82+396.20=468.028 kJ

what is the purpose of the condenser? question 3 options: a) to de-superheat the entering vapor, condense the vapor to a liquid,
Alona [7]

Option (a) is correct,

the purpose of the condenser is to de-superheat, the entering vapor, condense the vapor to a liquid, and subcool the liquid.

<h3>What is a condenser's purpose?</h3>

A condenser uses a cooling fluid to attempt to sufficiently cool down a vapor, changing its state from a vapor to a liquid. Condensers come in a variety of designs, including direct condensing, which involves coming into direct touch with the cooling fluid and the vapor.

<h3>What kind of vapor is condensed?</h3>

The vapour that needs to condense might be highly different and can even include non-condensable vapour, such as air, which greatly affects how well the condenser works.
