Answer:
mass (g) needed = 710.2 grams Na₂SO₄(s)
Explanation:
Needed is 2.5 Liters of 2.0M Na₂SO₄; formula wt Na₂SO₄ = 142.04g/mol.
mass (grams) of Na₂SO₄(s) = Molarity needed x Volume needed in Liters x Formula Wt of solute
mass (grams) of Na₂SO₄(s) = (2.5L)(2.0M)(142.04g/mol) = 710.2 grams Na₂SO₄(s)
Mixing: Transfer 710.4 grams Na₂SO₄ into mixing vessel and add water-solvent up to but not to exceed 2.5 Liters total volume. Mix until dissolved.
Gives 2.5 Liters of 2.0M Na₂SO₄(aq) solution.

B) nitrogen (N)
C) silicon (Si)
D) sulphur (S)
The element that has four total electrons in its outer P orbitals is
Sulphur (s) (answer D)
Sulphur is in group 16 and period 3 in the periodic table therefore Sulphur is in atomic number 16.
Sulphur (S) electronic configuration is 1S2 2S2 2P6 3S2 3P4 or [Ne] 3S2 3P4 therefore the 3P4 subshell of sulphur has only 4 electrons.
Answer: Helium is least likely to form bonds.
Explanation:
Helium has the electronic configuration . As the 1s sub-shell is completely filled so there is no need for helium to form bonds with other atoms.
Whereas, nitrogen has the electronic configuration . As the p sub-shell is half filled, it has the tendency to accept more electrons. Therefore, nitrogen is more susceptible to form bonds as compared to helium.
Thus, it is concluded that helium is least likely to form bonds.
