Answer is: selenium (Se).
1) electron configuration: ₃₄Se 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶3d¹⁰4s²4sp⁴.
2) ₃₃As 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶3d¹⁰4s²4sp³.
3) ₃₆Kr 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶3d¹⁰4s²4sp⁶.
4) ₃₁Ga 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶3d¹⁰4s²4sp¹.
Valence electrons of selenium are 4s²4sp⁴.
I'm certain it's "D"
...because it can't be "A" or "B" because solubility IS a property but to actually determine whether these two substances are the same or different we would need at least two-three properties (like boiling point or specific heat).
and it can't be "C" because the melting point is just simply irrelevant when comparing the solubility of two substances.
Answer:
Atoms are made of protons, neutrons and electrons.
Explanation:
The Dalton's atomic theory was an early attempt at describing the properties of atoms. It stipulated that atoms were the smallest indivisible particle of a substance. Chemical reactions occur as a result of a combination or separation of atoms. Atoms of the same element are exactly alike and differ from atoms of other elements. Atoms can neither be created nor destroyed.
As time went on, modern scientific evidence began to modify the original postulates of the Dalton's atomic theory. It was not postulated in 1805 that atoms were composed of subatomic particles; electrons, neutrons and protons. Dalton's theory held the atom to be 'indivisible'. However in 1897, JJ Thompson discovered the electron. Subsequently, the proton and neutrons were discovered. This shows that the atom in itself consisted of even smaller particles.
When heat energy is supplied to a material it can raise the temperature of mass of the material.
Specific heat is the amount of energy required by 1 g of material to raise the temperature by 1 °C.
equation is
H = mcΔt
H - heat energy
m - mass of material
c - specific heat of the material
Δt - change in temperature
substituting the values in the equation
120 J = 10 g x c x 5 °C
c = 2.4 Jg⁻¹°C⁻¹
I think the correct answer among the choices listed above is option D. Polar covalent bond is seen in molecules where <span>electrons are not shared equally between atoms. This makes the molecule to have a partially positive and partially negative sides.</span>
