Answer:
C
Explanation:
looking at a periodic table X is fluorine and Y is potassium
Fluorine is in group 7 and forms a 1- charge (which gains electrons) and potassium is in group 1 and forms a 1+ charge (which loses electrons)
Fluorine (X) has an electronic structure of 2,7 and needs to gain an electron from Potassium (Y) to have a full outer shell and potassium has an electronic structure of 2,8,8,1 so needs to lose an electron to have a full outer shell as well. This means that the electron that potassium (Y) has lost is given away to fluorine (X), so both elements become stable.
This is known as ionic bonding where metals (like potassium) lose electrons and non-metals (like fluorine) gain electrons to become more stable, forming ions
Any further clarification let me know
Explanation:
the best way to understand the age of the earth is to estimate the age of matirials in it
The atoms of hydrogen that are present in 7.63 g of ammonia(NH3)
find the moles of NH3 =mass/molar mass
7.63 g/ 17 g/mol = 0.449 moles
since there is 3 atoms of H in NH3 the moles of H = 0.449 x 3 = 1.347 moles
by use of 1 mole = 6.02 x10^23 atoms
what about 1.347 moles
= 1.347 moles/1 moles x 6.02 x10^23 atoms = 8.11 x10^23 atoms of Hydrogen
It looks all correct to me, great job!
