The first four electrons shells fill out in what electron configuration?


Apparently the answer is 2,8,8,2. Why?

Answers

Answer 1

Explanation:

2, 8, 8, 2 is the electron arrangement of Calcium.

The way that the "orbitals", the shells, fill up is given as

[tex]1s^{2} 2s^{2} 2p^{6} 3s^{2} 3p^{6} 4s^{2} 3d^{10}[/tex] . . . etc etc.

It is more stable for the fourth shell to start filling up with an electron pair, and then subsequent electrons filling up the third shell again.

So while potassium 19, is 2,8,8,1

And calcium 20, is 2,8,8,2

Scandium 21 will fill up as, 2,8,9,2

This will continue until we reach Zinc 30, which will fill up as 2,8,18,2. The third shell is now "full", and the fourth shell will now being to fill up.

The fourth orbital starts getting filled up again, Gallium 31, is 2,8,18,3

How many moles of aluminum oxide (Al2O3) are produced by reacting 5 moles of iron oxide (FeO)?
2AI+ 3FeO --> 3Fe + 1Al₂O3

Answers

Answer:

1.67 moles Al₂O₃

Explanation:

To find the amount of aluminum oxide produced, you need to start with 5 moles FeO and multiply it by the mole-to-mole ratio displaying the relationship between moles FeO and moles Al₂O₃. This ratio incorporates the coefficients from the equation. Remember, make sure to write the ratio in a way that allows for the cancellation of moles FeO.

2 Al + 3 FeO ---> 3 Fe + 1 Al₂O₃

5 moles FeO          1 mole Al₂O₃

A chemical reaction can be reversed if?



The energy of the reactants exceeds the activation energy threshold.


The energy of the products exceeds the activation energy threshold.


The energy of the reactants is less than the activation energy threshold.


The energy of the products is less than the activation energy threshold.

Answers

Answer: The energy of the products exceeds the activation energy threshold.

Explanation:

In the reverse reaction, the reactants of the forward reaction are now the products of the reverse reaction and vice versa.

This means that normally since you would need the energy of the reactants of the forward reaction to exceed the activation energy threshold, in the reverse reaction, the energy of the products would need to exceed the activation energy threshold.

1. When conducting this experiment, some procedures call for heating the substance several times and recording the mass after each heating, continuing until the mass values are constant. Explain the purpose of this process and how it might reduce errors.

Answers

The purpose of this process is to reduce the risk of having outliers of false results.

What is a good scientific experiment?

It is important to bear in mind that a good scientific experiment usually tests one independent variable at a time, and that is why it is important to keep all other potential variables constant and to use a control group.

Although, the experiment you are referring to in your question is missing the general principle when conducting an experiment is the running of multiple tests before coming up with an actual test result.

Therefore, when completing a science experiment it is important to run multiple tests like heating the substance several times until a constant mass value is obtained,  in other to ascertain the results. the reason why such process is undertaken is to reduce the risk of having outliers of false results.  

A scientific experiment involves several procedures and this depends on the type and purpose of the experiment.

for example ;

An experiment with the purpose of determining how the mass of an object reacts to heat will require the mass of the object to be recorded  after heating the object/substance several times.

Hence we can conclude that the purpose of the process is to reduce the risk of having outliers of false results.

A lead ball is added to a graduated cylinder containing 50.6 ml of water, causing the level of the water to increase to 93.0 mL. What is the volume in milliliters of the lead ball, Vieras? Viead =

Answers

42.4 ml is the volume in milliliters of the lead ball if a lead ball is added to a graduated cylinder containing 50.6 ml of water.

What is a graduated cylinder?

A tall narrow container with a volume scale is used especially for measuring liquids.

The graduated cylinder contains water

mL is a volume unit.

Water volume = 50.6 ml

The lead ball caused an increase in volume from 50.6 ml to 93.0 mL.

The new volume is the lead ball volume plus the original water volume :

Final volume = Vlead ball+ Water original volume

[tex]93.0 mL= V_(lead ball) +50.6 ml[/tex]

[tex]V_(lead ball) = 93.0 mL - 50.6 ml[/tex]

S0 + 2 e- → S-II (reduction)

2 K0 - 2 e- → 2 KI (oxidation)

S is an oxidizing agent, K is a reducing agent.

Answer:

K

Explanation:

Here, in this reaction 2 moles of potassium react with 1 mole of sulfur to form 1 mole of potassium sulfide.

Let's compare the electronic configurations of both elements :

⇒ K = {2, 8, 8, 1}

⇒ K can attain noble gas configuration by losing one electron

⇒ K exists as : K⁺

⇒ S = {2, 8, 6}

⇒ S can attain noble gas configuration by the addition of 2 electrons

⇒ S exists as S²⁻

Now, we know that will lose protons when oxidized. Hence, here the substance which is oxidized is K

Answers

In order to prepare a 50-fold diluted enzyme, 0.1 mL of the stock solution of the enzyme is taken and made up to 5.0 mL with 0.001M HCl.

What is dilution?

Dilution is a process whereby a solution of lower concentration is prepared from one of a higher concentration.

Dilution is done by using the dilution formula below:

C1V1 = C2V2

C1; Initial concentration of enzyme = 1 mg/mL

C2; Final concentration of enzyme = 1/50 mg/ml = 0.02 mg/ml

V1; Initial volume of enzyme = y

V2; Final volume = 5.0 ml

V1 = C2V2/C1

V1 =  0.02 * 5/1 = 0.1 mL

Therefore, in order to prepare a 50-fold diluted enzyme, 0.1 mL of the stock solution of the enzyme is taken and made up to 5.0 mL with 0.001M HCl.

Answers

The balloon must be heated to a temperature of 150 °C in order to have a volume of 6.00 L.

How are volume and temperature of gases related?

The volume of a gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas.

V1 =4.0 L

T1 = 9°C = (273. + 9) K = 282 K

V2 = 6.0 L
