When an electron temporarily occupies an energy state greater than its ground state, it is in an excited state. An electron can become excited if it is given extra energy, such as if it absorbs a photon, or packet of light, or collides with a nearby atom or particle

Select the name of the element with a condensed ground-state electron configuration of [kr] 5s14d7.

Vilka [71]

elements have equal number of protons and neutrons

the condensed format is when the closest noble gas with the closest electron configuration is given, this closest noble gas atomic number should be lesser than the atoms atomic number

atomic number of Kr is 36

1 electron in 5s subshell and 7 electrons in 4d subshell.

there's a total of 36 + 1 + 7 = 44 electrons

atomic number of the atom is 44

element with atomic number 44 is Ruthenium - Ru

answer is Ru

How many atoms of iodine are in 12.75g of CaI2? Hint. How many Iodines are there in one CaI2 particle?

xenn [34]

Answer:

$5.225x10^{22}atoms\ I$

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since 12.75 g of calcium iodide has the following number of moles (molar mass = 293.89 g/mol):

$n_{CaI_2}=12.75gCaI_2*\frac{1molCaI_2}{293.89gCaI_2}=0.0434molCaI_2$

In such a way, since 1 mole of calcium iodide contains 2 moles of atoms of iodine, and one mole of atoms of iodine contains 6.022x10²³ atoms (Avogadro's number), we compute the resulting atoms as shown below:

$atoms\ I=0.0434molCaI_2*\frac{2molI}{1molCaI_2} *\frac{6.022x10^{23}atoms\ I}{1molI} \\\\atoms\ I = 5.225x10^{22}atoms\ I$
