The reason why it is not considered this is because the material was made in a lab, not through nature, which is what is required to be considered as a true mineral.
Answer:
1s2 2s2 2p6
Explanation:
The nitride ion(N^3-) is formed when nitrogen gains three electrons. Nitrogen possesses seven electrons in its orbitals and ordinarily has the electronic configuration; 1s2 2s2 2p3. However,being in group 15, nitrogen can accept three electrons to form the nitride ion and complete its octet of electrons. When this happens, three electrons are added to the nitrogen atom and the electronic configuration is now the same as that of Neon, its closest noble gas which is 1s2 2s2 2p6. Hence the answer given above.
Elements can accept or donate electrons in order to complete their octet structure in accordance to the octet rule which states that atoms and ions must possess eight electrons in their outermost shell in order to attain chemical stability. The reason for ion formation and chemical reaction is in order for species to attain the octet structure.

Explanation:
This question is on application of Boyle's law; <u>pressure is inversely proportional to volume</u>.when we inhale air, the diaphragm and the muscles in the ribs contract thus increasing the volume in the lungs.Increased volume of the lungs cause the pressure to decrease.During exhaling, the diaphragm and muscles in the ribs relax, making the lungs to recoil and reduce in volume to force air out.Pressure in the lungs is increased than that in the environment making air to move out.
The main difference between the 3 isotopes of hydrogen are the number of neutrons in the nucleus. Hydrogen has no neutrons, Deuterium has one neutron, and tritium has two neutrons. All three have one proton and one electron.
