Test Your Hypothesis by Doing an Experiment
Your experiment tests whether your prediction is accurate and thus your hypothesis is supported or not. It is important for your experiment to be a fair test.
Answer:
Rubidium (Rb).
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Electronic configuration => 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s²3d¹⁰4p⁶5s¹
Name of element =?
To know the name of the element with the above electronic configuration, we shall determine the atomic number of the element. This can be obtained as follow:
Number of electrons = 2 + 2 + 6 + 2 + 6 + 2 + 10 + 6 + 1
Number of electrons = 37
Next, we shall determine the number of protons. This can be obtained as follow:
From the question given above, the element has no charge. Hence the element contains equal numbers of protons and electrons.
Number of electrons = 37
Number of protons = number of electrons = 37
Next, we shall determine the atomic number. This can be obtained as follow:
The atomic number of an element is simply defined as the number of protons present in the atom of the element. Thus,
Atomic number = proton number
Proton is = 37
Therefore,
Atomic number = 37
Finally, we shall determine the name of the element by comparing the atomic number of those in the periodic table.
Thus, the element with the above electronic configuration is Rubidium (Rb) since no two elements have the same atomic number
Answer: The bond formed between the elements will be ionic bond.
Explanation: We are given two elements having electronic configurations:
Element 1: 
Element 2: 
Element 1 can easily loose 1 electron to attain stable electronic configuration and Element 2 can accept 1 electron to attain stable electronic configuration.
For these elements, there will be a complete transfer of electron from Element 1 to Element 2. Hence, this will form a ionic bond.
From the configuration, Element 1 is Lithium and Element 2 is Fluoride. So, the compound is LiF.
The magnitude of the force required to change the length of a spring-like object is directly proportional to the spring constant and the displacement of the spring. Elastic potential energy is directly proportional to the square of the change in length and the spring constant.
