What is the noble gas notation of scandium?
Electronic configuration of scandium: [Ar]3d1.4s2.
What is the oxidation state of an element?
In chemistry, the oxidation state is a number assigned to an element as an indicator of the degree of oxidation of an atom in a chemical compound."The charge an element would have if it were an ion "Oxidation state is the same as the oxidation number. It is an indicator of the degree of oxidation of an atom in a chemical compound.
How can you find atomic number from oxidation number?
Atomic number is not related to oxidation number. If you want to find the atomic number of a particular element, all you have to do is find it on the periodic table of elements.
What is the oxidation number of oxygen?
the answer is -2.Related Information:The oxidation number of oxygen when it appears as an element is 0. The oxidation number in all compounds but peroxides is -2. The oxidation number of oxygen in peroxides is -1.
How are oxidation's and reduction related?
They must always occur in the same reaction; if one element or compound is oxidized, another one must be reduced.
What is the short electron configuration for Gallium?
The electron configuration of gallium is 1s22s22p63s23p64s23d104p1 The shorter version is [Ar]4s23d104p1
Why is it better to arrange elements according to their electronic structure and not in order of their relative mass number?
The chemical properties of any given element are the result of it electronic structure. The mass number is not related to the electronic structure because the mass includes neutrons, which not related to the electron structure (unlike protons). Any given element exists in more than one form (called isotopes) which have different numbers of neutrons, but the same electronic structure (and the same number of protons).
Describe the poisition of an element in the periodic table is related to proton number and electronic structur?
The position of an element in the periodic table is determined by it's atomic mass, so the amount of protons and neutrons in it's nucleus.
How is an element's most likely oxidation state related to its valence electrons?
It indicates how many electrons are required to complete a full valence shell.

How is charge related to oxidation number?
the charge on a mono-atomic ion is the same as the oxidation number, for a polyatomic ion the charge is the sum of the oxidation numbers of its constituent elements.
How is pH related to acids and bases?
its related acid configuration and metropolitan diffusion
