An element with the electron configuration: [noble gas] ns2 (n - 1)d10 np3 has how many_____________ valence electrons.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Marina86 [1]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The correct option is e. 5

Explanation:

An element with the electron configuration [noble gas] ns² (n - 1)d¹⁰ np³ belongs to the nitrogen group element - group 15 - in a period higher than 2. The element could be As, Sb or Bi. For example, arsenic (As) has the electron configuration [Ne] 4s² 3d¹⁰ 4p³.

The valence electrons are those in the highest energy level, in a s or p sublevel. For the elements with the general electron configuration [noble gas] ns² (n - 1)d¹⁰ np³ has 5 valence electrons: 2 electrons in a s sublevel and 3 electrons in a p sublevel. The electrons in the d orbital are in a lowest energy level (n-1).

Therefore, the correct option is e. 5.

What is formed when hydrobromic acid, hbr, and calcium hydroxide, ca(oh)2, are combined?
Lorico [155]

This is an acid – base reaction and this always result a salt and water in a neutralization reaction. <span>

The salt that is formed will be calcium bromide (calcium is located in group 2 so calcium bromide has a formula of CaBr2) 

so essentially we got:

HBr + Ca(OH)2 ------> CaBr2 + H2O </span>

balancing the elements: <span>

<span>2HBr(aq) + Ca(OH)2(aq) --------> CaBr2(aq) + 2H2O(l)</span></span>

Elemental sulfur is one of the products of the gas-phase reaction of nitric acid and hydrogen sulfide. The other
Goshia [24]

Answer:

The manufacturing processes for liquefied petroleum gas are designed so that the majority, if not all, of the sulfur compounds are removed. The total sulfur level is therefore considerably lower than for other crude oil-based fuels and a maximum limit for sulfur content helps to define the product more completely. The sulfur compounds that are mainly responsible for corrosion are hydrogen sulfide, carbonyl sulfide and, sometimes, elemental sulfur. Hydrogen sulfide and mercaptans have distinctive unpleasant odors. A control of the total sulfur content, hydrogen sulfide and mercaptans ensures that the product is not corrosive or nauseating. Stipulating a satisfactory copper strip test further ensures the control of the corrosion.

A piece of iron is heated with a torch to a temperature of 603 k.
Mazyrski [523]
This question asks to compare the energy emitted by a piece of iron at T = 603K with the energy emitted by the same piece at T = 298K.

Then you need to use the Stefan–Boltzmann Law

That law states that energy emitted (E) is proportional to fourth power of the  to the absolute temperature (T), this is E α T^4 (the sign α is used to express proportionallity.

Then E (603) / E (298) = [603K / 298K]^4 = 16,8

Which meand that the Energy emitted at 603 K is 16,8 times the energy emitted at 298K.
