Sulfur reacts with oxygen to yield SO3 as shown in the equation below;
2S(g)+ 3O2(g) = 2SO3(g)
From part A 7.49 g of S were used.
The atomic mass of sulfur is 32.06 g/mol
Hence, the number of moles of sulfur used
7.49 / 32.06 = 0.2336 moles
The mole ratio of S : SO3 is 1:1
Thus the mass of SO3 will be ( 1 mol of SO3= 80.06 g)
0.2336 moles × 80.06 = 18.7 g
It is really easy if you look up an electron configuration table (one that looks like a periodic table) and then just go down the rows left to right, top to bottom, and just stop when you get to where the element is on the table.
Answer:6 valence electrons
and
one valence electron
Explanation:
The answer should be <span>balance electrically
</span><span>Chemical reactions that form ions should have a balanced charge. The example of the reaction is HCl. When forming ions, the equation should be:
HCl => </span>
+
In this case, the hydrogen has one plus charge and chlorine has one negative charge. The resultant should be zero, so it's balanced.
Answer: The number 4 indicates 4 electrons.
Explanation: We are given an electronic configuration, which is:
Here,
- The letters denote the sub-shells of an element.
- The numbers written before the letters which are 1, 2 and 2 represents the Principle Quantum Number and these represents the energy level of the sub-shells.
- The number which are written in the superscripts which are 2, 2 and 4 denotes the electrons which are present in the sub-shell.
Hence, 4 indicates 4 electrons present in 2p sub-shell.
