Based on the information given, it should be noted that the ground-state electron configuration of carbon is 1s2 2s2 2p2.

<h3>What is an electron?</h3>

Electrons are simply the subatomic particles which orbit the nucleus of an atom.

The arrangement of electrons in the atomic orbitals of an atom is known as the electron configuration. This can be determined by using a periodic table.

It should be noted that carbon is the sixth element with a total of 6 electrons in the periodic table. Thus, the atomic number Z = 6.

In conclusion, the ground-state electron configuration of carbon is 1s2 2s2 2p2.

2.56 g of hydrogen reacts completely with 20.32 g of oxygen<br> to form X g of water. X = g
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

Mass of water produced is 22.86 g.

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of hydrogen = 2.56 g

Mass of oxygen = 20.32 g

Mass of water = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2H₂ + O₂   →  2H₂O

Number of moles of oxygen:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 20.32 g/ 32 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.635 mol

Number of moles of hydrogen:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 2.56 g/ 2 g/mol

Number of moles = 1.28 mol

Now we will compare the moles of water with oxygen and hydrogen.

                    O₂            :            H₂O

                     1              :             2

                  0.635        ;            2×0.635 =  1.27

                   H₂             :              H₂O

                    2              :              2

                 1.28            :           1.28

The number of  moles of water produced by oxygen are less thus it will be limiting reactant.

Mass of water produced:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 1.27 × 18 g/mol

Mass = 22.86 g

Calculate the equilibrium constant K for the following reaction: H2(g) +
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

192.9

Explanation:

From the question,

Ke = [HCL]²/[H₂][CL₂].......................... Equation 1

Where Ke = Equilibrium constant.

Given: [HCL] = 0.0625 M, [H₂] = 0.0045 M, [CL₂] = 0.0045 M

Substitute these values into equation 1

Ke = (0.0625)²/(0.0045)(0.0045)

ke = (3.90625×10⁻³)/(2.025×10⁻⁵)

ke = 1.929×10²

ke = 192.9

Hence the equilibrium constant of the system = 192.9
