Describe what subatomic particle is involved in light emission.

Consider the two electron arrangements for neutral atoms a and b. are atoms a and b the same element? a - 1s2, 2s2, 2p6, 3s1 b - 1s2, 2s2, 2p6, 5s1

Iknow the answer is a but i don't know why

The reactions shown here can be combined to make the overall reaction c(s) + h2o(g) ⇌ co(g) + h2(g) by reversing some and/or dividing all the coefficients by a number. a. c(s) + o2(g) → co2(g) k=1.363×10^69 b. 2 h2(g) + o2(g) → 2 h2o(g) k=1.389×10^80 c. 2co(g) + o2 (g) → 2 co2(g) k=1.477×10^90
