Please help. Write the orbital notation for each of the following: (Be sure to label your sublevels)

a) O b) Sc

Explanation: In writing the electron configuration for oxygen the first two electrons will go in the 1s orbital. Since 1s can only hold two electrons the next 2 electrons for O go in the 2s orbital. The remaining four electrons will go in the 2p orbital. Therefore the O electron configuration will be 1s22s22p4.

hcl + naoh → h2o + nacl

explanation:

hcl + naoh → h2o + nacl   is the reaction that is correctly balanced.

however, pcl3 + h2 → ph3 +3hcl, 2ca+ 3cl2 → cacl3, and c5h12 + 5o2 → 5co2 + 6h2o are not correctly balanced.
