Answer:
D: Carbon
Explanation:
Carbon is the sixth element with a total of 6 electrons in the periodic table. Hence the atomic number Z = 6. The ground state electron configuration of carbon is 1s2 2s2 2p2. An excited state electron configuration of carbon is 1s2 2s1 2p3.
Answer:
1.76
Explanation:
There is some info missing. I think this is the original question.
<em>A chemist dissolves 660.mg of pure hydroiodic acid in enough water to make up 300.mL of solution. Calculate the pH of the solution. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.</em>

Step 1: Calculate the molarity of HI(aq)
M = mass of solute / molar mass of solute × liters of solution
M = 0.660 g / 127.91 g/mol × 0.300 L
M = 0.0172 M
Step 2: Write the acid dissociation reaction
HI(aq) ⇄ H⁺(aq) + I⁻(aq)
HI is a strong acid, so [H⁺] = 0.0172 M
Step 3: Calculate the pH
pH = -log [H⁺]
pH = -log 0.0172
pH = 1.76
The answer is 23.5° but I guess 23° is closest
