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

allsm [11]

Answer:

Fuses are built as a safety measure if there is too much current flowing through a circuit. ... However, if an electrical current exceeds the maximum current allowed within that fuse it will overheat and cause the metal strip to melt. The destroyed metal strip breaks the connection and stops electricity flowing through.

The weight of an object is the product of its mass, m, and the acceleration of gravity, g (where g=9.8 m/s2). If an object’s mas
Amiraneli [1.4K]
Weight  = mass x gravitational acceleration = mg

m = 10kg
g = 9.8 m/s^2

So, weight =  10 x 9.8  = 98 Kg-m/s^2

Balance the equations below by adding coefficients. Enter a number in each blank, entering "1" when necessary.
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

1. CO₂ → C + O₂

2. Fe₂ + O₂ → 2FeO

3. 2Al + 3CuO→  Al₂O₃  +  3Cu

Explanation:

1. 1 mol of CO₂ decomposes to 1 mol of C and 1 mol of oxygem

2. 1 mol of Fe₂ reacts with 1 mol of oxygen to produce 2 moles of iron (II) oxide

3. 2 moles of Al, reacts with 3 moles of cupper(II) oxide to produce 1 mol of aluminum dioxide and 3 moles of cupper

How many moles of ammonia can be formed from 4.0 mol H2
Bess [88]

Answer: 1. 2.7 moles  of ammonia are formed

2. 12.0 moles  of hydrogen are required

3. 2.0 moles of nitrogen are required

Explanation:

The balanced chemical equation is:

N_2+3H_2\rightarrow 2NH_3

According to stoichiometry:

3 moles of hydrogen form = 2 moles of ammonia

Thus 4.0 moles of hydrogen form =\frac{2}{3}\times 4.0=2.7moles of ammonia

According to stoichiometry:

2 moles of ammonia are formed by = 3 moles of hydrogen

Thus 8.0 moles of ammonia are formed by  =\frac{3}{2}\times 8.0=12.0moles of hydrogen

According to stoichiometry:

3 moles of hydrogen react with = 1 mole of nitrogen

Thus 6.0 moles of hydrogen react with =\frac{1}{3}\times 6.0=2.0moles of nitrogen
