More unstable an electron configuration , the more reactive an atom will    become.

How electron configuration influences the chemical behavior of an atom?

This is happen generally, If we look at the Group 1 elements in the periodic table, they are all highly reactive as they have 1 electron in their outermost shells - an unstable configuration in terms of energy.

Also, the noble gases in Group 8 in the periodic table are 'inert' that means they don't react (or more correctly, have an incredibly low reactivity). This is because they have 8 electrons in their outermost shell and thus have no need to acquire or lose electrons to possess a stable electron configuration.

Hence, electron configuration influences the chemical behavior of an atom.

How do ionic bonds form??
mihalych1998 [28]
It is formed when a metal element is chemically combined to a nonmetal. The metal element will form a positive ion and the nonmetal will form a negative ion. They will then combined to form a very strong bond with very strong electrostatic forces between the particles.

Elodia [21]

Answer:Since dinosaurs are thought to be over 65 million years old, the news is stunning - and more than some could tolerate.  After the AOGS-AGU conference in Singapore, the abstract was removed from the conference website by two chairmen because they could not accept the findings.  Unwilling to challenge the data openly, they erased the report from public view without a word to the authors.  When the authors inquired, they received this letter:

Remical Reactions 8.P.13 1 8 of 40
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

H₂O + CO₂      →    H₂CO₃

Option D is correct.

Law of conservation of mass:

According to this law, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.

This law was given by French chemist  Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

Now we will apply this law to given chemical equations:

A) H₂ + O₂   →    H₂O

There are two H and two O atoms present on left side while on right side only one O and two H atoms are present so mass in not conserved. This option is incorrect.

B) Mg + HCl   →   H₂ + MgCl₂

In this equation one Mg, one H and one Cl atoms are present on left side of equation while on right side two H, one Mg and two chlorine atoms are present. This equation also not follow the law of conservation of mass.

C) KClO₃      →     KCl + O₂

There are one K, one Cl and three O atoms are present on left side of equation while on right side one K one Cl and two oxygen atoms are present. This equation also not following the law of conservation of mass.

D)  H₂O + CO₂      →    H₂CO₃

There are two hydrogen, one carbon and three oxygen atoms are present on both side of equation thus, mass remain conserved. This option is correct.
