Answer: Option (5) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
It is known that the ground state electronic configuration of silicon is
.
And, we know that when an atom tends to gain an electron then it acquires a negative charge and when an atom tends to lose an electron then it acquires a positive charge.
As
has a +4 charge which means that it has lost 4 electrons. Hence, the electronic configuration of
is
.
According to the Aufbau principle, in the ground state of an atom or ion the electrons fill atomic orbitals of the lowest energy levels first, before filling the higher energy levels.
As 2p orbital is filled after the filling of 2s orbital.
Therefore, we can conclude that 2p orbital will be occupied by the electrons of highest energy for the
ground-state ion.
What is likely to occur if sulfur forms an ionic bond with another element is <u>sulfur will accept electrons</u>
<u><em> explanation</em></u>
- Ionic bond is formed when a metal react with a non metal.
- Metal loses ( donate) electrons to form cation ( a positively charged ion) , while non metal accept (gain) electrons to form anion ( a negatively charged ion ).
- Sulfur is a non metal therefore it accept electrons if it form an ionic bond with a metal. sulfur accept 2 electrons to form S2- ion
Explanation:
The given cell reaction is as follows.

Hence, reactions taking place at the cathode and anode are as follows.
At anode ; Oxidation-half reaction :
...... (1)
At cathode; Reduction-half reaction :
....... (2)
Hence, balance the half reactions by multiplying equation (1) by 2 and equation (2) by 3.
Therefore, net cell reaction is as follows.

Net reaction: 
Thus, we can conclude that the overall cell reaction is as follows.

There are types of lens; concave and convex lens.
The concave lens is a lens which has an inward curve in the middle, that is, the edges of the curve are thicker than the center of the lens, because of this, any light that enter the lens will spread out [diverge]. An image will look smaller and upright when viewed by a concave lens. Image formed by concave lens are usually VIRTUAL.
A concave lens will produce a real image ONLY if the object is located beyond the focal point of the lens.
A convex lens is a converging lens, this is because, the center of the lens is thicker than its edges. Any ray of light that passes through the lens will converge at the middle of the lens at point called principal focus. A convex lens produce a VIRTUAL image when the object is placed infront of the focal point. The virtual image formed is always magnified and upright.<span />
The correct answer is A. molecular formula = 2 x empirical formula
The given compound C2H10N2 is the molecular formula because the ratios of the elements are not reduced into lowest terms (empirical formula). To get the empirical formula, the ratios must be reduced to the smallest possible integral ratio which gives CH5N. As a result, the ratio between both formulas is 2.
