Electrons in an atom can be classified as core electrons and valence electrons. Valence electrons are those electrons which are present in valence shell and participates in bond formation. While, Core electrons are all remaining electrons which are not present in valence shell, hence not take part in bonding.
Atomic number of Selenium (Se) is 34 hence it has 34 electrons with following electronic configuration;
1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹⁰, 4p⁴
From electronic configuration it is found that the valence shell is 4, and the number of electrons present in valence shell are 6. So,
Core Electrons = Total Electrons - Valence Electrons
Core Electrons = 34 - 6
Core Electrons = 28
Result:
There are 28 core electrons in Selenium.
Answer:
positive
positive
Explanation:
Entropy -
In a system, the randomness is measured by the term entropy .
Randomness basically refers as a form of energy that can not be used for any work.
The change in entropy is given by amount heat per change in temperature.
- When solid is converted to gas entropy increases,
As the molecules in solid state are tightly packed and has more force of attraction between the molecules, but as it is converted to gas, the force of attraction between the molecule decreases and hence entropy increases.
So,
The particles of the substance , if are tightly held by strong force of attraction will decrease the entropy ,
And
If the particles are loosely held , the entropy will increase , i.e. , positive entropy .
Similar with solid converting to liquid , the entropy will increases , i.e. , positive entropy .
Hence ,
The correct sign of entropy for both the process is positive .
Answer:
Velocity
Explanation:
Velocity is a vector quantity that mentions the direction of the object(north, south, etc..) speed is not a vector quantity.
I think this is the answer, I hope this helps!
When 0.514 g of biphenyl (C12H10) undergoes combustion in a bomb calorimeter, the temperature rises from 25.8 C to 29.4 C. Find ⌂E rxn for the combustion of biphenyl in kJ/mol biphenyl. The heat capacity of the bomb calorimeter, determined in a separate experiment, is 5.86 kJ/ C.
<span>The answer is - 6.30 * 10^3 kJ/mol
