What are valence electrons and how do they affect the properties of an atom?

The term "valence electrons" refers to all of the electrons in an atom's outermost shell.

The centre of the atom is where the nucleus is. The nucleus contains protons and neutrons. The electrons travel in a specific circular direction and at a specific distance from the nucleus.

The atom's final shell's electrons take part in chemical reactions and the production of bonds. Both ionic and covalent bonding involve valence electrons. Metals are elements with one, two, or three electrons in their final shell.

These substances become positive ions after losing their electrons. Non-metals are substances with 5, 6, or 7 electrons in the outermost shell. These substances all gain electrons and change into negative ions.

Ionic bonds are those created by the transfer of electrons between metals and non-metals. For instance, ionic bonding allows sodium and chlorine to interact to generate sodium chloride.

Answer:

15. 2.66 moles .

16. 2.09L.

Explanation:

Molarity of a solution is simply defined as the mole of solute per unit litre of the solvent. Mathematically, it is represented as:

Molarity = mole /Volume.

With the above formula, let us answer the questions given above

15. Data obtained from the question include the following:

Volume of solution = 1.4L

Molarity = 1.9M

Mole of solute =.?

Molarity = mole /Volume

1.9 = mole / 1.4

Cross multiply

Mole = 1.9 x 1.4

Mole = 2.66 moles

Therefore, the mole of the solute present in the solution is 2.66 moles.

16. Data obtained from the question include the following:

Mole of solute = 0.46 mole

Molarity = 0.22M

Volume of solvent (water) =.?

Molarity = mole /Volume

0.22 = 0.46/Volume

Cross multiply

0.22 x Volume = 0.46

Divide both side 0.22

Volume = 0.46/0.22

Volume = 2.09L

Therefore, 2.09L of water is required.

Answer:

French physicist Jacques Charles (1746-1823) studied the effect of temperature on the volume of a gas at constant pressure. Charles's Law states that the volume of a given mass of gas varies directly with the absolute temperature of the gas when pressure is kept constant. The absolute temperature is temperature measured with the Kelvin scale. The Kelvin scale must be used because zero on the Kelvin scale corresponds to a complete stop of molecular motion.

alt

Figure 11.5.1: As a container of confined gas is heated, its molecules increase in kinetic energy and push the movable piston outward, resulting in an increase in volume.

Mathematically, the direct relationship of Charles's Law can be represented by the following equation:

V

T

=k

As with Boyle's Law, k is constant only for a given gas sample. The table below shows temperature and volume data for a set amount of gas at a constant pressure. The third column is the constant for this particular data set and is always equal to the volume divided by the Kelvin temperature.
