Answer:
The answer to your question is: B and C.
Explanation:
Neon atomic number = 10
Electron configuration is not : 1s²2s¹2p⁶ .
This electron configuration is for fluor (9 electrons) because is we sum up the electrons ( 2 + 1 + 6) the result is 9.
A)The 3s orbital should be part of the configuration. This is not the right reason.
B)The total number of electrons is incorrect. This correct, the number of electrons is 9 instead of 10.
C)The 2s orbital does not have enough electrons. This option is correct, 2s must have 2 electrons and it only has 1.
D) The 1s orbital does not have enough electrons. This option is incorrect, 1s orbital can have only 2 electrons.
Reaction of calcium with water
Calcium reacts slowly with water. This is in contrast with magnesium, immediately above calcium in the periodic table, which is virtually unreactive with cold water. The reaction forms calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH)2 and hydrogen gas (H2).

Answer:
308 moles of sodium
Explanation:
The balanced equation for the chemical reaction between sodium metal (Na) and water (H₂O) is the following:
2 Na(s) + 2 H₂O → 2 NaOH(aq) + H₂(g)
From the equation, we can see that 2 moles of Na react with 2 moles of H₂O to give 2 moles of NaOH and 1 mol of H₂ (hydrogen gas). So the stoichiometric mole ratio between Na and H₂ is: 2 mol Na/1 mol H₂. Thus, we multiply the mole ratio by the moles of H₂ to be produced to obtain the moles of Na required:
moles of Na required = 2 mol Na/1 mol H₂ x 154 moles H₂ = 308 moles Na
Therefore, 308 moles of sodium are needed to produce 154 moles of hydrogen gas.
