Answer:

2,3–dimethylpentane

Explanation:

To know which option is correct, we shall determine the name of the compound.

To obtain the name of the compound, do the following:

1. Determine the longest continuous carbon chain. This gives the parent name of the compound.

2. Identify the substituent group attached to the compound.

3. Locate the position of the substituent group by giving it the lowest possible count.

4. Combine the above to obtain the name of the compound.

Now, we shall determine the name of the compound as follow:

1. The longest continuous carbon chain is 5. Thus, the parent name of the compound is pentane.

2. The substituent group attached is methyl (–CH₃)

3. There are two methyl group attached to the compound. One is located at carbon 2 and the other at carbon 3.

4. Therefore, the name of the compound is:

2,3–dimethylpentane

None of the options are correct.

What is the electron configuration for<br> 08<br> 16
Elis [28]

The electron configuration for Oxygen : [He] 2s²2p⁴

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Writing electron configurations starts from the lowest to the highest sub-shell energy level. There are 4 sub-shells in the shell of an atom, namely s, p, d, and f. The maximum number of electrons for each sub-shell is  

• s: 2 electrons  

• p: 6 electrons  

• d: 10 electrons and  

• f: 14 electrons  

Charging electrons in the sub-shell uses the following sequence:  

<em>1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹⁰, 4p⁶, 5s², 4d¹⁰, 5p⁶, 6s², etc.  </em>

The element is Oxgen, with symbol O, and :

the atomic number=8=number of electron

the atomic mass=16

The electron configuration based on the number of electrons(for Oxygen=8), so the configuration :

\tt _8^{16}O:1s^22s^22p^4 or we can write with noble gas [He] 2s²2p⁴

Identify the correct coefficients to balance the redox reaction with the lowest possible integer coefficients.
Monica [59]

Answer:

\rm 3\; Ag^{1+} + 1\; Al \to 1\; Al^{3+} + 3\; Ag.

Explanation:

Electrons are conserved in a chemical equation.

The superscript of \rm Ag^{1+} indicates that each of these ions carries a charge of +1. That corresponds to the shortage of one electron for each \rm Ag^{+} ion.

Similarly, the superscript +3 on each \rm Al^{3+} ion indicates a shortage of three electrons per such ion.

Assume that the coefficient of \rm Ag^{+} (among the reactants) is x, and that the coefficient of \rm Al^{3+} (among the reactants) is y.

\rm \mathnormal{x}\; Ag^{1+} + ?\; Al \to \mathnormal{y}\; Al^{3+} + ?\; Ag.

There would thus be x silver (\rm Ag) atoms and y aluminum (\rm Al) atoms on either side of the equation. Hence, the coefficient for \rm Al\! and \rm Ag\! would be y\! and x\!, respectively.

\rm \mathnormal{x}\; Ag^{1+} + \mathnormal{y}\; Al \to \mathnormal{y}\; Al^{3+} + \mathnormal{x}\; Ag.

The x \rm Ag^{1+} ions on the left-hand side of the equation would correspond to the shortage of x electrons. On the other hand, the y Al^{3+} ions on the right-hand side of this equation would correspond to the shortage of 3\, y electrons.

Just like atoms, electrons are also conserved in a chemical reaction. Therefore, if the left-hand side has a shortage of x electrons, the right-hand side should also be x\! electrons short of being neutral. On the other hand, it is already shown that the right-hand side would have a shortage of 3\, y electrons. These two expressions should have the same value. Therefore, x = 3\, y.

The smallest integer x and y that could satisfy this relation are x = 3 and y = 1. The equation becomes:

\rm 3\; Ag^{1+} + 1\; Al \to 1\; Al^{3+} + 3\; Ag.

An atom or ion has 41 neutrons, 36 protons, and 36 electrons. Identify the element symbol, and determine the mass number
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

Element symbol: Kr.

Mass number: 77.

Charge : 0.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since such substance has the same amount of protons and electrons we can infer it is an atom whose number of neutrons is defined by considering its atomic mass or mass number and atomic number which is actually equal to the number of protons and electrons (36):

neutrons=atomic\ mass - atomic\ number

In such a way, solving for the atomic mass we obtain:

atomic\ mass=neutrons+ atomic\ number\\\\atomic\ mass=41+36=77

It means that the element is krypton (Kr) as it has 36 electrons and protons so its charge is 0.

Best regards.
