What is the number of electrons shared between the atoms in a I2 molecule

Chemistry
1 answer:
vova2212 [387]4 years ago
5 0

The number of electrons shared between the atoms in a I₂ molecule is two (2).

Explanation:

An iodine atom has 53 electrons and its electron configuration is;

2. 8. 8. 18. 17

  1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s²3d¹⁰4p⁶5s²4d¹⁰5p⁵

Note that the outermost p shell has 5 electrons while it can accommodate a maximum of 6 for stable electron configuration. Therefore an Iodine atom needs one (1) electron to acquire nobility. Two Iodine atoms will, therefore, share two electrons (each from one of their p sub-shell ) by covalent bonds to form I₂

What is a homogenous mixtures
Veronika [31]

Answer:

hi

Explanation:

A mixture which has uniform composition throughout its mass is called homogeneous mixture. The word "homo" means "same". For example, when you completely dissolve salt in the water, you form a homogeneous mixture.

Explain difference in appearance between a pure substance and a mixture.
Nata [24]

A pure substance is a substance which cannot be separated physically or chemically. It is the same wherever found on earth. For example, pure gold is a pure substance. It will be the same whether it is found where you live or on another country. A mixture can be either homogeneous or heterogeneous. A homogeneous mixture is a mixture that looks the same throughout but is made of more than one element. An example of this would be salt and water mixture.  A heterogeneous mixture is a mixture in which you can easily identify the different parts which make it up. An example of this would be pizza. Both these mixtures can be broken into different parts either physically or chemically.

Hope it helps :)
