Hydrogen and Oxygen by themselves have 1 and 6 valence electrons, respectively. 8 valence electrons is stable, so the atoms form bonds with each other to achieve 8 valence e-.

1 H atom + 1 H atom + 1 O atom = 8 valence e-

The oxygen atom requires 2 electrons to complete its valance shell. Hydrogen is special in that it can eighter give or take one electron and still be stable. So hydrogen gives its electron  to oxygen, and two hydrogens fill up all of oxygen's  valance shell, and it forms water.

Answer:

A.

Explanation:

Water was added to the reaction after the completion of the reaction so as to lower the solubility if the product in the solution therefore, the product can be precipitated out. On adding water the reaction moves in forward direction and more product is formed. (By Le Chatelier's principle). Thus, the precipitation occurs. Hence, option A is correct.

Henry Moseley organized the periodic table by A. atomic weight. B. atomic number. C. electronegativity. D. overall charge of ato
Leni [432]
B - Atomic number. Dmitri Mendeleev organised the table according to atomic weight, however this caused problems with elements such as iodine and tellurium, Iodine has a higher mass, but a lower atomic number. And to make iodine in the same group as similar elements (halogens), Mendeleev had to break his own rules and put it before tellurium in the table. Moseley fixed this problem by ordering the elements according to atomic (proton) number.
