One of the emission spectral lines for Be3+ has a wavelength of 253.4 nm for an electronic transition that begins in the state w

4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Relationship between wavenumber and Rydberg constant (R) is as follows:

$wave\ number=R\times Z^2\frac{1}{n_1^2} -\frac{1}{n_1^2}$

Here, Z is atomic number.

R=109677 cm^-1

Wavenumber is related with wavelength as follows:

wavenumber = 1/wavelength

wavelength = 253.4 nm

$wavenumber=\frac{1}{253.4\times 10^{-9}} \\=39463.3\ cm^{-1}$

Z fro Be = 4

$39463.3=109677\times 4^2(\frac{1}{n_1^2} -\frac{1}{5^2})\\39463.3=109677\times 16(\frac{1}{n_1^2} -\frac{1}{5^2})\\n_1=4$

Therefore, the principal quantum number corresponding to the given emission is 4.

The atom fluorine generally will become _____ stable through the formation of an ionic chemical compound by accepting _______ e

larisa86 [58]

The atomic number of Fluorine is 9

Valence (outer) electron configuration is : 2s²2p⁵

Therefore, it requires 1 electron in the p-orbital to complete its octet of 8 electrons.

Thus, the atom Fluorine generally will become <u>more </u>stable through the formation of an ionic chemical compound by accepting <u>1 </u> electron from another atom. This process will fill its outer energy level.

Ans: A) more, 1

An atom is the smallest identifiable unit of a compound true or false

notsponge [240]

False that atom is the smallest identifiable unit of a compound.

The smallest identifiable unit of a compound is the Element. Element is the one which make up the compound and element is made up by atoms. Example of element is oxygen and hydrogen which make up water (H2O) which is a compound.

Given that nitrogen forms three bonds with hydrogen to make <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=NH_%7B3%7D" id="TexFormula1" title

lbvjy [14]

Answer:

Three hydrogen atoms to form PH₃.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the elements belonging to the nitrogen family (N, P, As, Sb and Bi) show five valence electrons, because there are five electrons at their outer shell, it is clear that if phosphorous bonds with hydrogen, it is going to require the same amount of oxygen atoms (3) because elements having five valence electrons need 3 bonds in order to attain the octet (5+3=8).

Therefore the compound would be:

$PH_3$

Which is phosphine.

Best regards!
