Sodium electron configuration in longhand notation

Answers

Answer:

Na₁₁ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s¹

Explanation:

Sodium is present in group 1.

It is alkali metal.

It has one valence electron.

The atomic number of sodium is 11.

Its atomic mass is 23 amu.

The longhand notation of electronic configuration of sodium can be written as,

Na₁₁ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s¹

The electronic configuration in shorthand notation( noble gas) would be written as,

Na₁₁ = [Ne] 3s¹

Sodium loses its one valence electron to complete the octet and get stable thus form +1 cation.

It react with halogen and form salt. Such as sodium chloride.

The density of air at STP is 1.285 g/L. Which of the following cannot be used to fill a balloon that will float in air at STP?

Answers

NO can't  be used to fill a balloon

Further explanation

Conditions at T 0 ° C and P 1 atm are stated by STP (Standard Temperature and Pressure). At STP, Vm is 22.4 liters/mol.

Answer options that need to be added :

a. Ne

b. NO

c. NH₃

d. CH₄

e. HF

will float in air ⇒ element or compound to fill the balloon, its density must be less than < 1.285 g/L

We can use the ideal gas formula ta find density :

[tex]\tt \rho=\dfrac{P.MW}{RT}[/tex]

Because at STP, then the constant value is

[tex]\tt \rho=\dfrac{1~atm\times MW}{0.08205\times 273.15~K}\\\\\rho=0.0446\times MW[/tex]

So that the density is determined from the MW(molecular weight) of each element or compound

a. Ne

Ar = 20.1797 g/mol

[tex]\tt \rho=0.0446\times 20.1797=0.9~g/L[/tex]

b. NO

MW=30.006 g/mol

[tex]\tt \rho=0.0446\times 30.006=\boxed{\bold{1.338~g/L}}[/tex]

c. NH₃

MW=17.0306 g/mol

[tex]\tt \rho=0.0446\times 17.0306=0.760~g/L[/tex]

d. CH₄

MW=16.04 g/mol

[tex]\tt \rho=0.0446\times 16.04=0.715~g/L[/tex]

e. HF

MW=20.01 g/mol

[tex]\tt \rho=0.0446\times 20.01=0.892~g/L[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

Arsenic if I understood correctly

Explanation:

Ions can be made by single element or covalently bonded group of elements. The covalently bonded group of elements is called polyatomic ions or polyatomic atoms. Therefore, the element with atomic number 33 and -3 charge is Arsenic.

What is Ions?

Any species that contain charge whether it is positive charge or negative charge is called ions. The example of polyatomic ions are sulfate, phosphate, nitrate etc.

Cation is the species that loose electron and attain positive charge while anion is a species which gain electron and attains negative charge so when anion and cation combine in fixed ration the the overall charge of the molecule is zero that is molecule is neutral, the charge over cation and anion is also called oxidation state. The element with atomic number 33 and -3 charge is Arsenic.

Therefore, the element with atomic number 33 and -3 charge is Arsenic.

According to Dalton’s atomic theory, what are elements and what makes one element different from another?

Answers

Dalton was a chemist who discovered the “law of multiple proportion” in chemical reaction in early nineteenth century. For example, element of tin, he observed, interacted with oxygen to produce two different masses but in proportion 1:2. (Now, this is known to correspond to the formation of tin-monoxide and tin-dioxide, with one and two atoms of oxygen, respectively.)

From such and related studies, he proposed his theory of chemical elements: (a) that all elements are composed of ‘atoms’, the hypothetical indivisible constituents of matter of the ancient Greek thinkers, like, Democritus, and (b) that the elements differ from one another due to the atoms of different masses and sizes that constitute an element.

The modern theory of chemistry says that an element consists of an atom that consists of a heavy nucleus with positively charged ‘protons’ (and most often also the neutral particles called ‘neutrons’) at its center and, an equal number of negatively charged (and much lighter) ‘electrons’, distributed around it in discrete energy shells. Further, the elements differ from one another by the number of positively charged protons in their nucleus, the so-called atomic number, Z, of an atom. Finally, molecules are formed as well as chemical reactions take place, through the exchange or transfer of the electron(s) in the outermost shells of the reacting atoms (and/or molecules).

8n-3y = 18 and5x+6y=27

Answers

Answer:

x = 3 and y= 2

Explanation:

Given equations:

           8x - 3y  = 18  - ---- (I)

           5x + 6y = 27 -------(II)

Solve this problem by elimination;

  In the elimination method, we simply find a common term that can make one of the variables in the two equation the same. Then we either add or subtract to remove the variable.

 Mulitply equation (i) by 5 to give equation III

 Mulitply equation (II) by 8 to give equation IV

     5(8x - 3y) = 5(18) ------- III

     8(5x + 6y) = 8(27) ------- IV

   40x - 15y = 90------- III

   40x + 48y = 216  ------- IV

Subtract  equation III and IV;

        -15y - 48y = 90 - 216

         - 63y = -126

                y = 2

Solve for x;

      40x - 15y = 90;

       40x - 15(2) = 90

         40x - 30 = 90

           40x = 90 + 30

              40x = 120

                 x = 3

We are doing a lab and I have trouble doing the data analysis. Using my data collection, Can you guys help me using the MC delta T equation?

Answers

The equation

4.94 x c . (Tm-23.6)=C.(23-6-21.9)+123.13 x c. (23.6-21.9)

Further explanation

The law of conservation of energy can be applied to heat changes, ie the heat received/absorbed is the same as the heat released  

Q in = Q out  

Heat can be calculated using the formula:  

Q = mc∆T  

A calorimeter is a device used to measure the specific heat of material  

A metal is put into a calorimeter that contains water and there will be heat transfer:  

[tex]\tt \displaystyle m_mc_m (T_m-T)=m_wc_w(T-Tw)[/tex]

m = metal  

w = water  

T = the final temperature of the mixture  

mass of metal =(Nickel) = 4.94 g

mass of calorimeter = 12.5 g

mass of water = 123.13 g (135.63 - 12.5)

The equation

Q released (metal) = Q absorbed(calorimeter+water)

Qmetal = 4.94 x c . (Tm-23.60)Q calorimeter = C.(23-6-21.9) --> C = heat capacity of calorimeterQ water = 123.13 x c. (23.6-21.9)

The equation :

4.94 x c . (Tm-23.6)=C.(23-6-21.9)+123.13 x c. (23.6-21.9)

An ideal sample weighing 1.28g at 127C (temp) and 1 atm has a volume of 0.250L. Determine the molar mass of the gas.

Answers

Answer:

Molar mass of gas = 160 g/mol

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of sample gas = 1.28 g

Temperature of sample gas = 127°C (127+273 = 400K)

Pressure of sample gas = 1 atm

Volume of sample gas = 0.250 L

Molar mass of gas = ?

Solution:

Formula:

PV = nRT

R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K

Now we will put the values in formula.

1 atm × 0.250 L = n × 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K ×400K

0.250 L.atm   = n ×32.84atm.L/ mol

n = 0.250 L.atm/32.84atm.L/ mol

n = 0.008 mol

Molar mass of gas:

Number of moles = Mass/molar mass

0.008 mol = 1.28 g / molar mass

Molar mass = 1.28 g / 0.008 mol

Molar mass = 160 g/mol
