Answer:

1s2: correct.

6s3: incorrect because the subshell s can hold up to 2 electrons.

5f10: correct.

4d3: correct.

2d4: incorrect because the second energy level just has the s and p subshells.

3p10: incorrect because the p subshell can hold up to 6 electrons.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the attached file, which shows the correct orbitals and electrons, we can proceed as follows:

1s2: correct.

6s3: incorrect because the subshell s can hold up to 2 electrons.

5f10: correct.

4d3: correct.

2d4: incorrect because the second energy level just has the s and p subshells.

3p10: incorrect because the p subshell can hold up to 6 electrons.

A person weighed 15 pennies on a balance and recorded the following masses:

Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

A) yes

B) The average mass of 12 pennies should be expressed as

( 3.131 + 3.129 + -------- X12 ) g / 12

where X12 = is the mass of the 12th penny

Explanation:

A) I think the the Bureau of Mint changed the way it made pennies because from the experiment and observation carried out on 15 different pennies it can be seen that they had different weights and this difference is associated with the period/time of production of the different pennies,

B ) The average mass of any object should be expressed in the si unit of mass and not having ($) sign attached to the value instead it should be expressed in grams or kilograms (s.i unit of mass )

The average mass of 12 pennies should be expressed as

( 3.131 + 3.129 + -------- X12 ) g / 12

where X12 = is the mass of the 12th penny

Neptunium-237 undergoes a series of α-particle and β-particle productions to end up as thallium-205. How many α particles and β

Fantom [35]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

8 alpha particles

4 beta particles

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given;</u>

Neptunium-237
Thallium-205
Neptunium-237 undergoes beta and alpha decay to form Thallium-205.

We are required to determine the number of beta and alpha particles produced to complete the decay series.

We need to know that when a radioisotope emits an alpha particle the mass number reduces by 4 while the atomic number decreases by 2.
When a beta particle is emitted the mass number of the radioisotope increases by 1 while the atomic number remains the same.

In this case;

Neptunium-237 has an atomic number 93, while,

Thallium-205 has an atomic number 81.

Therefore;

²³⁷₉₃Np → x⁴₂He + y⁰₋₁e + ²⁰⁵₈₁Ti

We can get x and y

237 = 4x + y(0) + 205

237-205 = 4x

4x = 32

x = 8

On the other hand;

93 = 2x + (-y) + 81

but x = 8

93 = 16 -y + 81

y = 4

Therefore, the complete decay equation is;

²³⁷₉₃Np → 8⁴₂He + 4⁰₋₁e + ²⁰⁵₈₁Ti

Thus, Neptunium-237 emits 8 alpha particles and 4 beta particles to become Thallium-205.

A gas of 3.4 moles occupies a volume of 0.046 L at 298 K. What is the pressure in kPa?

Phantasy [73]

Answer : The correct option is, $2.1\times 10^5kPa$

Explanation :

To calculate the pressure of gas we are using ideal gas equation as:

$PV=nRT$

where,

P = pressure of gas = ?

V = volume of gas = 0.046 L

n = number of moles of gas = 3.4

R = gas constant = 8.314 L.kPa/mol.K

T = temperature of gas = 298 K

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

$P\times (0.046L)=(3.4mol)\times (8.314L.kPa/mol.K)\times (298K)$

$P=1.83\times 10^5kPa\approx 2.1\times 10^5kPa$

Therefore, the pressure of gas is, $2.1\times 10^5kPa$
