Gallium has 31 electrons (₃₁Ga 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 3d¹⁰ 4s² 4p¹) and if loses 13 electrons, gallium would have configuration of noble gas argon with 18 electrons (₁₈Ar 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶), but that is not possible, so gallium only loses three electrons and has electron configuration:
₃₁Ga³⁺ 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 3d¹⁰.
Answer:
The iron is in the +3 oxidation state, which is what the III means.
Answer:
It's the first option. A distance between two similar points on a wave of light.
Explanation:
On a wavelength chart, where you measure the rate at which the light travels at its distance from the source. You have two points to compare to.
Answer:
paramagnetic
Explanation:
The complex ion is : [Cr(CN)₆]³⁻
Oxidation state of Cr in [Cr(CN)₆]³⁻ is:
x + (-1)6 = -3
x = +3
CN⁻ is a strong field ligand which can result in pairing of the electrons.
The electronic configuration of Cr is:
1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶3d⁵4s¹
The electronic configuration of Cr³⁺ is:
1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶3d³
<u>These 3 electrons will be singly present in the 3 degenerate t₂g orbitals and per Hund's rule, pairing will not occur in the same level energy orbitals. So , no. of unpaired electrons will be 3 and the complex will be paramagnetic.</u>
Answer: The results agree with the law of conservation of mass
Explanation:
The law of conservation of mass states that mass is neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction. On the reactant side, the total mass of reactants is 14.3g and the total product masses is also 14.3g. That implies that no mass was !most in the reaction. The sum of masses on the left hand side corresponds with sum of masses on the right hand side of the reaction equation.
