How many of the elements in the second row of the periodic table (li through ne) will have at least one unpaired electron in the

ir electron configurations?

4 0
The second row of the periodic table consists of the elements:
Lithium (3)
Beryllium (4)
Boron (5)
Carbon (6)
Nitrogen (7)
Oxygen (8)
Fluorine (9)
Neon (10)

The number in the bracket shows the atomic number of the elements, which also indicates the number of electrons they have. We see that the odd numbered elements, Li, B, N and F will all have unpaired electrons. Therefore, 4 elements will have unpaired electrons in their electronic configuration.

I want to know which ones are molecular equation, complete ionic equation and net ionic equation
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

The molecular equations are:

1. CuSO₄ (aq) + 2 KOH (aq) ----> Cu(OH)₂ (s) + K₂SO₄ (aq)

2. Ba(NO₃)₂ (aq) + K₂SO₄ (aq) + BaSO₄ (s) + 2 KNO₃ (aq)

The complete ionic equations are:

1. Ag + (aq) + NO₃- (aq) + I- (aq) + Na (aq) ---> AgI (s) + No₃- (aq) + Na+ (aq)

2. Cu²+ + SO₄²- (aq) + 2 K+ (aq) + 2 OH- (aq) ---> Cu(OH)₂ (s) + 2K+ (aq) + SO₄²- (aq)

The net ionic equations are:

1. Ca²+ (aq) + SO₄²- (aq) ---> CaSO₄ (s)

2. Ba²+ (aq) +SO₄²- (aq) ---> BaSO₄ (s)

Explanation:

A molecular equation is a balanced chemical equation which shows the reacting species as molecules rather than as componenet ions in their compounds with subscripts written beside the molecules to indicate the state in which they occur in the chemical reaction.

An ionic equation expresses the reacting species as components ions in a chemical reation. All the ions and molecules reacting are shown.

In a net ionic equation, the ions which remain in the ionic state also known as spectator ions are not written as part of the equation.

From the given attachment;

The molecular equations are:

1. CuSO₄ (aq) + 2 KOH (aq) ----> Cu(OH)₂ (s) + K₂SO₄ (aq)

2. Ba(NO₃)₂ (aq) + K₂SO₄ (aq) + BaSO₄ (s) + 2 KNO₃ (aq)

The complete ionic equations are:

1. Ag + (aq) + NO₃- (aq) + I- (aq) + Na (aq) ---> AgI (s) + No₃- (aq) + Na+ (aq)

2. Cu²+ + SO₄²- (aq) + 2 K+ (aq) + 2 OH- (aq) ---> Cu(OH)₂ (s) + 2K+ (aq) + SO₄²- (aq)

The net ionic equations are:

1. Ca²+ (aq) + SO₄²- (aq) ---> CaSO₄ (s)

2. Ba²+ (aq) +SO₄²- (aq) ---> BaSO₄ (s)

During photosynthesis, ________.
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

d. there is a net consumption of water and carbon dioxide

Explanation:

Photosynthesis, is the process whereby light energy is transform into chemical energy by

green plants and other photosynthesis capable organisms . In the process of photosynthesis, light energy is captured by green plants which it uses to convert carbon dioxide water, and minerals into energy-rich organic compounds and oxygen is evolved as a byproduct.

It is a chemical reaction taking place inside a plant, resulting in the production of food for the survival of the plant.

Photosynthesis takes place in the leaves of a plant in the presence of sunlight and.

For the Zn - Cu^2+ voltaic cell Zn(s) + Cu^2+(aq, 1M) + Cu(s) E degree _cell = 1.10 V Given that the standard reduction potentia
Fittoniya [83]

Answer : The value of E^o_{(Cu^{2+}/Cu)} is, 0.34 V

Explanation :

Here, copper will undergo reduction reaction will get reduced. Zinc will undergo oxidation reaction and will get oxidized.

The oxidation-reduction half cell reaction will be,

Oxidation half reaction:  Zn\rightarrow Zn^{2+}+2e^-

Reduction half reaction:  Cu^{2+}+2e^-\rightarrow Cu

Oxidation reaction occurs at anode and reduction reaction occurs at cathode. That means, gold shows reduction and occurs at cathode and chromium shows oxidation and occurs at anode.

The overall balanced equation of the cell is,

Zn+Cu^{2+}\rightarrow Zn^{2+}+Cu

To calculate the E^o_{(Cu^{2+}/Cu)} of the reaction, we use the equation:

E^o_{cell}=E^o_{cathode}-E^o_{anode}

E^o_{cell}=E^o_{(Cu^{2+}/Cu)}-E^o_{(Zn^{2+}/Zn)}

Putting values in above equation, we get:

1.10V=E^o_{(Cu^{2+}/Cu)}-(-0.76V)

E^o_{(Cu^{2+}/Cu)}=0.34V

Hence, the value of E^o_{(Cu^{2+}/Cu)} is, 0.34 V
