Answer: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s1 3p1

Explanation:

Excitation of an electron is an elevation in energy level of the valence electron above the ground state electron.

When an electron gains energy, usually the outermost electron it moves from a orbital of lower energy to a orbital of higher energy, the element is in an excited state.

The electron configuration of ground state of magnesium is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s1 3p2, when it gains energy the electronic configuration is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s1 3p1 the excited state of Magnesium this is because the last electron moves from the 3S orbital to a higher energy orbital 3P

You are a chemist working in your laboratory. In your storage closet you have a cabinet that holds only samples of pure elements
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

Mercury

Explanation:

While it is true that most metals are solid at room temperature, mercury is liquid at room temperature hence mercury is often designated as the 'liquid metal'.

Thus, if i find a bottle on the shelf that has no solid in it, only liquid and i know that only pure metals are stored in that area of the laboratory, then i will quickly relabel it as mercury.

How do the chemical properties of the halegons compare to those of the noble gases
saul85 [17]

Answer:

The halogens are extremely reactive, whilst the noble gases are mainly inert.

Only some noble gases tend to form compounds, such as xenon and krypton. However, some like helium, almost have no compounds at all. Noble gases also have octet rule shells, which causes the little reactivity associated with them. To form bonds with noble gases, a lot of energy is required to form those bonds. Halogens, on the other hand, are extremely reactive. Compounds like chlorine and fluorine must be stored carefully, as they will oxidise anything that they can find, just to get one extra electron to get an octet configuration.


Hope this helps :)

How many grams of NH3 can be produced from 12.0g of H2?
RSB [31]

Answer:

Balanced reaction:

3 H2 (g)  + N2 (g)  → 2 NH3 (g)

Use stoichiometry to convert g of H2 to g of NH3.  The process would be:

g H2 → mol H2 → mol NH3 → g NH3

12.0 g H2 x (1 mol H2 / 2.02 g H2) x (2 mol NH3 / 3 mol H2) x (17.03 g NH3 / 1 mol NH3) = 67.4 g NH3

Explanation: See above

Hope this helps, friend.
