This element is found in group 3A, period 3
<h3>Further explanation
</h3>
The maximum number of electrons that can be filled in the nth electron shell is 2n²(n=shell)
-
K shell (n = 1) maximum 2 x 1² = 2 electrons
- L shell (n = 2) maximum 2 x 2² = 8 electrons
- M shell (n = 3) maximum 2 x 3² = 18 electrons
- N shell (n = 4) maximum 2 x 4² = 32 electrons
Electron configuration of element X : 2.8.3 , so :
K shell = 2 ⇒1s²
L shell = 8⇒2s²2p⁶
M shell = 3⇒ 3s²3p¹
Block p: group 13-18 (has a 2p-6p configuration), also called a representative element because it includes metals, non-metals and metalloids
The outer shell 3s²3p¹ : located in group 3A and period 3
group⇒valence electron ⇒3
period⇒the greatest value of the quantum number n⇒3
Answer:
Use pOH = -log₁₀ [OH-]
Explanation:
pOH can be calculated from the concentration of hydroxide ions using the formular below:
pOH = -log₁₀ [OH-]
The pOH is the negative logarithm of the hydroxide ion concentration.
Answer:The key to remember is that carbon combustion requires oxygen. As soon as there is no oxygen left, carbon combustion stops. In nuclear fusion, the nuclei of atoms are fused together to make new, bigger nuclei.
