<u>Answer:</u> The electronic configuration of the elements are written below.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Electronic configuration is defined as the representation of electrons around the nucleus of an atom.
Number of electrons in an atom is determined by the atomic number of that atom.
For the given options:
- <u>Option a:</u> Carbon (C)
Carbon is the 6th element of the periodic table. The number of electrons in carbon atom are 6.
The electronic configuration of carbon is 
- <u>Option b:</u> Phosphorus (P)
Phosphorus is the 15th element of the periodic table. The number of electrons in phosphorus atom are 15.
The electronic configuration of phosphorus is 
- <u>Option c:</u> Vanadium (V)
Vanadium is the 23rd element of the periodic table. The number of electrons in vanadium atom are 23.
The electronic configuration of vanadium is 
- <u>Option d:</u> Antimony (Sb)
Antimony is the 51st element of the periodic table. The number of electrons in antimony atom are 51.
The electronic configuration of antimony is 
- <u>Option e:</u> Samarium (Sm)
Samarium is the 62nd element of the periodic table. The number of electrons in samarium atom are 62.
The electronic configuration of samarium is 
Hence, the electronic configuration of the elements are written above.
Answer:
3.84 Ω
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Electrical power (P) = 150 W
Voltage (V) = 24 V
Resistance (R) =?
P = IV
Recall:
V = IR
Divide both side by R
I = V/R
P = V/R × V
P = V² / R
Where:
P => Electrical power
V => Voltage
I => Current
R => Resistance
With the above formula (i.e P = V²/R), we can calculate resistance as illustrated below:
Electrical power (P) = 150 W
Voltage (V) = 24 V
Resistance (R) =?
P = V²/R
150 = 24² / R
150 = 576 / R
Cross multiply
150 × R = 576
Divide both side by 150
R = 576 / 150
R = 3.84 Ω
Thus, the resistance is 3.84 Ω
Answer:
A positive ions is always smaller than the corresponding atom.
A negative ion is always larger than the corresponding atom.
Explanation:
The reason for this is that, when a positive ion is formed, a full shell is usually removed with its electrons thereby reducing the size of the electron cloud and decreasing the size of the electron cloud.
A negative ion is formed by addition of more electrons to the electron cloud hence it spreads out. Interelectronic repulsion accounts for the larger size of the negative ion.
Answer:
b. Its concentration is half that of the chloride ion
Explanation:
As the calcium chloride formula is CaCl2
CaCl2 <--> Ca + 2 Cl-
CBr4 is a symmetric tetrahedral molecule so it will be non-polar.
