Give the electronic configuration of an atom of sulfur.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Ugo [173]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁴

Explanation:

Looking at the <em>periodic table</em>, we see that sulfur (S) has an atomic number of 16, this means its electronic configuration would be:

  • 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁴

We know the electronic configuration written above is correct because the sum of all the superscript numbers is 16 (2+2+6+3+4=16).

conclusions: how is the difference in the physical properties of the powdered mixture components being used to separate them in
Advocard [28]
  • Sedimentation and Decantation is the process of setting of solid particles from a liquid either to produce a concentrated slurry or to clarify a liquid containing solid particles . The solid must not be mixed with liquid. For example- sand insoluble in water
  • Sublimation -  In this process solid phase is directly transformed  into vapour form without passing through liquid phase.This method is used in the purification of those substances which have sublimation property. At first the mixture should be sublimed before dissolution in liquid.
  • EX- Iodine , naphthalene, ammonium chloride etc. Here, NH4Cl is seperated by sublimation.
  • Evaporation is a technique used to separate out homogeneous mixtures where there is one or more dissolved salts. The process convert  the liquid components from the solid components. The process typically involves heating the mixture until no more liquid remains.
  • so, now by evaporation of the liquid solvent we finally get the salt that was dissolved in it that is NaCl.

What is the complementary DNA sequence for C G T T A C C G in chargaff's rule?
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

Chargaff's rule, also known as the complementary base pairing rule, states that DNA base pairs are always adenine with thymine (A-T) and cytosine with guanine (C-G). A purine always pairs with a pyrimidine and vice versa. However, A doesn't pair with C, despite that being a purine and a pyrimidine.

Explanation:

In these nucleotides, there is one of the four possible bases: adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), or thymine (T) (Figure below). Adenine and guanine are purine bases, and cytosine and thymine are pyrimidine bases. Chemical structure of the four nitrogenous bases in DNA✔✔

In some types of alcohol digestion, alcohol C_2 H_5 OHC 2 ​ H 5 ​ OHC, start subscript, 2, end subscript, H, start subscript, 5,
kari74 [83]

Answer:

This is the typical route of alcohol metabolism, where in the liver it is first transformed to acetaldehyde and then to acetate.

Explanation:

Ethanol is not digested but absorbed and follows its metabolic pathway in the liver, producing in the first instance acetaldehyde, which is the main substance that causes the hangover and then this compound is transformed into the final product, which is acetate Later acetate is metabolized to Acetyl-CoA. The enzyme responsible for the metabolism of ethanol is alcohol dehydrogenase in the liver, and for the cytochrome P-450 dependent system and for catalase in the liver.

Which of the following atoms forms an ionic bond with a sulfur atom? (Points : 3)
elena-s [515]
Ionic bonds are formed when there is complete transfer of valence electrons between two atoms.

Electronegativity tells the trend of an atom to atract electrons.

You should search for the complete set of rules that indicate whether an ionic or covalent bond happens.

There are two relevant rules to state if whether an ionic bond will happen:

- When the difference of electronegativities between the two atoms is greater than 2.0, then the bond is ionic.

- When the difference is between 1.6 and 2.0, the bond is ionic if one of the elements is a metal.

You need to list the electronegativities of the five elements (there are tables with this information)

Element  electronegativity

Cu:    1.9
H:      2.2
Cl      3.16
I:        2.66
S:      2.58

Differences:

Cu / S: 2.58 - 1.9 = 0.68
H / S: 2.58 - 2.2 = 0.38
Cl / S: 3.16 - 2.58 =0.58
I / S: 2.66 -  2.58 = 0.08

 Those differences are too low to consider that the bond is ionic.

Then the answer is that none of those atoms forms an ionic bond with sulfur.
