4s2 3d10 4p6 5s2 4d2 b) Zr4+ exists because Zirconium structure contains 40 electrons. For Zirconium to become chemical stable it must lose 4 electrons (to become a noble gas). So that is why Zr4+ is formed. Compare the stability of the zr atom and zr ion. the electron configuration for Zr is [Kr] 4d2 5s2. Ions are formed by losing electrons in outer shells to obtain more stable electron configurations like those of noble gases. By losing 4 electrons‚ it would have the electron configuration

ALBERT EINSTEIN and the ATOMIC BOMB The physicist Albert Einstein did not directly participate in the invention of the atomic bomb. But as we shall see‚ he was instrumental in facilitating its development. In 1905‚ as part of his Special Theory of Relativity‚ he made the intriguing point that a large amount of energy could be released from a small amount of matter. This was expressed by the equation E=mc2 (energy = mass times the speed of light squared). The atomic bomb would clearly illustrate this
