Answer:
atoms tend to react in order to gain 8 valence electrons
Explanation:
The octet rule describes the tendency of atoms of elements to react in order to have eight electrons in their valence shell. This is because having eight valence electrons confers stability to the atoms of these elements in the compounds they form.
The octet rule only does not apply to the transition elements or the inner transition elements as only the s and p electrons are involved. the electronic configuration in atoms having an octet is s²p⁶.
For example, sodium atom has one valence electron in its valence shell but a complete octet in the inner shell; it will react with chlorine atom which has seven valence electrons to form a stable compound, sodium chloride by donating its one valence electron in order to have an octet. Similarly, the chlorine atom will then have an octet by accepting the one electron from sodium atom.
Answer:
50.76 mol H2O.
Explanation:
The photosynthesis follows the equation:
6CO2 + 6H2O ---> C6H12O6 + 6O2
This means that 6 mol of H2O are needed to obtain 1 mol of C6H12O6 (see the numbers that precedes every molecule to know how many mols are in game).
So we can say that:
1 mol C6H12O6 --------- 6 mol H2O
8.46 mol C6H12O6 -----x= 8.46 x 6 : 1 = 50.76 mol H20
Mass of H₂ needed to react with O₂ : 1.092 g
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
The concentration of a substance can be expressed in several quantities such as moles, percent (%) weight / volume,), molarity, molality, parts per million (ppm) or mole fraction. The concentration shows the amount of solute in a unit of the amount of solvent.
Reaction
O₂(g) + 2H₂(g) → 2H₂O(g)
mass of O₂ : 8.75 g
mol O₂(MW=32 g/mol) :
From the equation, mol ratio of O₂ : H₂ = 1 : 2, so mol H₂ :
Mass H₂ (MW=2 g/mol) :
Explanation:
Atoms are at their most stable when their outermost energy level is either empty of electrons or filled with electrons. Sodium atoms have 11 electrons. Two of these are in the lowest energy level, eight are in the second energy level and then one electron is in the third energy level.
