Chemistry

Damm [24]2 years ago

Answer:

use coefficients and subscripts to determine how many atoms are in a compound. If there is no subscript or coefficient, assume it is 1. If there is a coefficient, multiply it with the subscripts. For counting cations and anions, determine first which is the anion and cation (anion = nonmetal, cation = metal), then count the number of that ion.

Example:

NaCl

one atom of Na, one atom of Cl. Since Na is a metal, it is a cation. Cl is a nonmetal, so it is an anion.

2CaCl2

2 atoms of Ca, 4 atoms of Cl. There are 2 cations, since Na is a metal, and 4 anions since Cl is a nonmetal

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

This list of electron configurations of elements contains all the elements in increasing order of atomic number.

To save room, the configurations are in noble gas shorthand. This means part of the electron configuration has been replaced with the element symbol of the noble gas symbol. Look up the electronic configuration of that noble gas and include that value before the rest of the configuration.
