Answer:

Answer: (b) F

Explanation:

Sodium has 1, magnesium has 2 and Aluminium has 3 electrons in its outermost shell whereas Fluorine has 7 electrons in its outermost shell hence Fluorine does not lose electrons easily.

The electronic configuration of fluorine is 2,7.

Fluorine is the ninth element with a total of 9 electrons.

The first two electrons will go in the 1s orbital.

The next 2 electrons for F go in the 2s orbital.

The remaining five electrons will go in the 2p orbital. Therefore the F electron configuration will be 1s22s22p5.

A lake in rural maine drops in ph from 7 to 5 as a result of acid rain falling into it. how has the h+ ion concentration change
Jlenok [28]
The H+ concentration in the lake has increased as a result of the acid rain.
The original pH of the lake was 7, which mean the water is neutral, but due to the acid rain, it drops to 5. This means, that the water has become acidic and how have more hydrogen ion. The H+ concentration in the lake has 100 times compares with its original pH.

Aluminum metal can be recycled from scrap metal by melting the metal to evaporate impurities. a. Calculate the amount of heat ne
fenix001 [56]

The amount of heat required to purify the Al is 25.94 * 10^3 J

<h3>What is heat capacity?</h3>

The term heat capacity refers to the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a substance by 1K. The aluminum was heated from 298 K to 933 K then it melted.

The total heat required is;

H = ncdT + nL

H = (1 * 24 * (933 - 298)) + (1 * 10.7 * 10^3)

H = 15.24 * 10^3  J + 10.7 * 10^3 J

H = 25.94 * 10^3 J
