Answer:
[Ne] 3s² 3p²
Explanation:
Silicon atoms have 14 electrons. The ground state electron configuration of ground state gaseous neutral silicon is 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p².
Using noble gas shorthand, the electronic configuration is reduced to;
[Ne] 3s² 3p². Ne s the nearest noble gas to silicon, Ne contains 8 electrons, this means there's still 4 more electrons to fill. The s orrbital can only hold 2, hence the reaing two is transferred to the p orbital.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
Let's illustrate this; see the attachment.
We see that Mrs. Jacobson is pushing to the right with a force of 100 N and there is another opposite force pushing with a force of 15 N. Since these are in opposite directions, we can say that the force opposite to Mrs. Jacobson is pushing the fridge -15 N to the right (instead of 15 N to the left).
The net force would then be:
100 N + (-15 N) = 85 N to the right
The answer is A.
Answer:
Explanation:
In a reaction, where, one of the reactant produces a colored product, visible spectroscopy can be used to determined the order of a reaction, the change in concentration of the reactant which forms the colored product is determined by absorbance measurement over time. The data for the concentration and time are plotted on the y and x axis and If we get a straight line it is a zero-order reaction. If instead, a plot of ln[concentration] versus time gives a straight line, it is a first order reaction. However, If 1/concentration versus time gives a straight line, it is a second order reaction kinetics. The other reactants may be changed while keeping this reactant as constant and change on rate of the reaction is observed to see If the other reactant affects the reaction or not.
