Which element's total number of electrons is equal to the number of core

Chemistry

Answer:

Neon (Ne)

Explanation:

The atomic number of Chlorine is seventeen and its number of valance electrons are seven, so number of core electrons will be ten.

Valance electrons;

These are the electrons which are present in put most valance shells and take part in bonding.

Core electrons:

These are the electrons present in inner to the valance shell and closer to the nucleus. These electrons do not take part in bonding.

Electronic configuration:

Cl₁₇ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁵

Core electrons = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ = 10

Valance electrons = 3s² 3p⁵ = 7

The number of core electrons are ten and atomic number of neon is also ten. So, the number of core electrons of chlorine will be equal to the total number of electrons of neon.

Answer:

3 water molecules

Explanation:

The molar ratio between CuSO₄ and H₂O needs to be calculated.

The mass of water that was removed by heating is calculated, then converted to moles. The molecular weight of water is 18.02g/mol.

(8.97 g - 6.57 g) = 2.22 g H₂O

(2.22 g)/(18.02g/mol) = 0.1232 mol H₂O

The moles of anhydrous copper sulfate are calculated. The molecular weight is 159.609 g/mol

(6.57 g)/(159.609 g/mol) = 0.04116 mol CuSO₄

Now the molar ratio between CuSO₄ and H₂O can be calculated:

0.1232 mol H₂O ÷ 0.04116 mol CuSO₄ = 3 H₂O / CuSO₄

Ann [662]

Answer:

See explanation and image attached

Explanation:

The  Gilman reagent is a lithium and copper (diorganocopper) reagent with a general formula R2CuLi.  R is an alkyl or aryl group.

They are useful in the synthesis of alkanes because they react with organic halides to replace the halide group with an R group.

In this particular instance, we intend to synthesize propylcyclohexane. The structure of the  lithium diorganocopper (Gilman) reagent required is shown in the image attached to this answer.
