Answer:

Heya..

here's ur answer ⤵️

Explanation:

Mass is never lost or gained in chemical reaction.

we say that mass is always conserved. In other words the total mass of products at the end of the reaction is equal to the total mass of the Reactants at the beginning. This is because no atom are created or destroyed during chemical reactions.

Hope this helps u

Answer:

Atoms are not created or destroyed by chemical reactions. Also, matter is neither created nor destroyed, it just changes form. Matter cannot be created or destroyed. ... The Law of Conservation of Mass states that in a chemical reaction the total mass of reactants is equal to the total mass of products.

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of the products in a chemical reaction must equal the mass of the reactants. The law of conservation of mass is useful for a number of calculations and can be used to solve for unknown masses, such the amount of gas consumed or produced during a reaction.

For example, when wood burns, the mass of the soot, ashes, and gases equals the original mass of the charcoal and the oxygen when it first reacted. So the mass of the product equals the mass of the reactant.

The quantum numbers for the last electron placed in three elements are listed below. Which of these is(are) NOT correct? Er (4 3

UNO [17]

Answer:

The three elements Erbium, Thallium and Osmium have incorrect quantum numbers for the last electron placed.

Explanation:

The 4 quantum numbers are (n,l,ml,ms):

n (Principal quantum number): it is the number of the shell (level) where the electron is placed.
l (Angular momentum quantum number or Secondary): it represents the sublevel where the electron is placed. There are 4 subleves: s, p d and f so secondary quantum number can take the number 0 (s), 1 (p), 2 (d) or 3 (f) depending on which sublevel the electron is placed.
ml (Magnetic quantum number): it represents the spatial orientation of the electron in respect of the sublevel the electron is placed. For example: if the electron occupies the s sublevel the magnetic number will be 0, if the electron occupies the p sublevel the magnetic number could be -1,0,1, if the electron occupies the d sublevel the magnetic number could be -2,-1,0,1,2 and if the electron occupies the f sublevel the magnetic number could be -3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3. You can see this in the attachment related to the correct sublevel for the example.

ms (Spin quantum number): this number represents the possible rotation of the electron so it could be 1/2 (which is represented by an up arrow) or -1/2 (represented by an down arrow).

Let's analyze the last electron of each element. You can see the attachment for better understanding. The last electron it is represented with orange color.

- Erbium:

This element has 68 electrons so following the Moeller's Diagram to fill the the electronic configuration, we found that the last electron of Erbium it is in the 4th level (shell), in the f sublevel. As Erbium has 12 electrons in the f sublevel, it is necessary to follow the Hund's rule (electrons must be placed singly in every sublevel before place a parallel electron) to placed correctly all of them. Finally, the last electron of Erbium stays in the middle of the sublevel and it is represented by a down arrow so the correct quantum numbers in the Erbium element are (4,3,1,-1/2).

- Thallium:

This element has 81 electrons and following the Moeller's Diagram, we found that it last electron it is in the 6th level, in the p sublevel. As Thallium has 1 electron in the p sublevel, it is placed singly in the sublevel. So the last electron of Thallium it is represented by an up arrow so the correct quantum numbers in the Thallium element are (6,1,-1,1/2).

- Osmium:

Osmium has 76 electrons and following the steps that we did with we the other elements, we noticed that its last electron it is in the 5th level, in the d sublevel. Following the Hund's rule the last electron of Osmium has a magnetic quantum number of -2 and its spin quantum number is -1/2, so the quantum numbers in the Osmium element are (5,2,-2,-1/2).

Note:

- Remember that the s sublevel has place for 2 electrons, the p sublevel has place for 6 electrons, the d sublevel has place for 10 electrons and the f sublevel has place for 14 electrons.

How does your body obtain energy from the carbohydrates you eat?

Komok [63]

Our bodies digest the food we eat by mixing it with fluids (acids and enzymes) in the stomach. When the stomach digests food, the carbohydrate (sugars and starches) in the food breaks down into another type of sugar, called glucose.
