Alkali metals: left column of your periodic table (not hydrogen, but anything below it). They have one valence electron, which they are happy to share in a reaction.
Halogens: second column from the right of your periodic table. They are one electron short of a full shell, so they are reactive in the opposite way that alkalis are--they want electrons.
Atomic number (number of protons) is the big number on the periodic table square. Hydrogen's is 1.
Atomic mass is a little number down below. For example, Hydrogen's is 1.008.
Neutrons are a tricky subject, because different isotopes of the same element can have different numbers of neutrons. You can't generally get this from the atomic mass, because the atomic mass is a weighted average of naturally occurring isotopes. Hydrogen can have 0,1, or 2 neutrons. To answer this, you'd have to choose a particular isotope from the table of isotopes (a completely different chart from the periodic table) which has a certain number of neutrons: n = weight - Z.
Valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost shell. (The column of the table).

Answer:
The correct answer is 0,2 rems
Explanation:
People are exposed to natural sources of radiation all the time. According to recent estimates, the average person in the United States receives an effective dose of approximately 3 mSv per year of natural radiation, which is equivalent to 0.3 rems. This amount includes cosmic radiation from outer space and is average because it varies depending on the region people are in.
The amount of radiation for a chest x-ray of an adult (0.01 rems) is approximately equal to 10 days of natural radiation to which we are all exposed every day.
Have a nice day!
Answer:
the speed after 3 seconds is 10 m/s
Explanation:
The computation of the speed is shown below:
As we know that
V = U + at
Here,
U = 34 m/s
a = - 8 m/s²
t = 3 Sec
V = velocity after 3 sec
V = 34 + (-8)3
= 34 - 24
V = 10 m/s
Hence, the speed after 3 seconds is 10 m/s
The two letters are B and A, in that order.
