Answer : The correct option is, (+2)

Explanation :

The given electronic configuration is, 1s^22s^22p^63s^2

In the given electronic configuration of an atom, '3s' shell is the outermost shell in which two electrons are present. For the stable configuration, these two electrons will remove easily from the outer shell and atom will carry (+2).

Total number of electrons in the given configuration= 12 electrons

And magnesium is the element which have 12 electrons. Due to the stable electronic configuration, magnesium atom changes their electronic configuration by losing two electrons and Mg atom changes to Mg^{2+} ion.

Hence, the most likely charge of an ion formed from an atom with the given electron configuration would be, (+2)

Al agregar 150g de una sustancia X en un recipiente que sostiene que contiene agua hasta 50, el nivel del agua aumenta hasta 120
vovangra [49]

Answer:

2,14 g / ml

Explanation:

Sabemos que el volumen de una sustancia es igual al cambio de volumen del agua cuando el objeto en cuestión se sumerge en el agua.

Dado que el volumen original del agua = 50 ml

Volumen de agua después de sumergir el objeto = 120 ml

Masa del objeto = 150 g

Ahora,

Densidad = masa / volumen

Densidad = 150g / 120-50 ml

Densidad = 150/70 ml

Densidad = 2,14 g / ml

The heating curve for a sample of pure ethanol shows the slope of the line for gaseous state is greater than the slope of the li
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

a. The specific heat capacity of the gaseous ethanol is less than the specific heat capacity of liquid ethanol.

Explanation:

The heating curve is a curve that represents temperature (T) in the y-axis vs. added heat (Q) in the x-axis. The slope is T/Q = 1/C, where C is the heat capacity. Then, the higher the slope, the lower the heat capacity. For a constant mass, it can also represent the specific heat capacity (c).

Heats of vaporization and fusion cannot be calculated from these sections of the heating curve.

<em>Which statement below explains that?</em>

<em>a. The specific heat capacity of the gaseous ethanol is less than the specific heat capacity of liquid ethanol.</em> YES.

<em>b. The specific heat capacity of the gaseous ethanol is greater than the specific heat capacity of liquid ethanol.</em> NO.

<em>c. The heat of vaporization of ethanol is less than the heat of fusion of ethanol.</em> NO.

<em>d. The heat of vaporization of ethanol is greater than the heat of fusion of ethanol.</em> NO.
