-they are all odorless, colorless, monatomic gases with very low chemical reactivity.
-they’re all found in group 18 on the periodic table, all the way on the far right.
-they are the only elements that are unable to form compounds.
The valence electrons are determined by the column that the element falls in.
Column 1 has 1 valence electron
Column 2 has 2 valence electrons
Column 13 has 3 valence electrons
Column 15 has 5 valence electrons
column 16 has 6 valence electrons
column 17 has 7 valence electrons
Elements are trying to become stable by filling the outer energy level. Columns 1,2,3 do this by losing 1,2 or 3 electrons and becoming positive ions. +1, +2, +3, respectively
Columns 15, 16, 17 do this by taking those electrons and becoming negative ions. -3, -2, -3. respectively.
Answer:
The anions that can act as bases (conjugate bases of weak acids) have the capability to hydrolyse water and produce OH− ions. Cl−, Br−NO−3, SO2−4 are all conjugate bases of strong acids that don't have the capability to hydrolyse water and so they aren't basic.
Explanation:
Answer:
The answer is 1.29473 x 10^24
Explanation:
Natural diamonds are made very deep within earth's surface where high temperatures and pressure exist naturally, thus making them much more difficult to obtain, and making them a more expensive option that Swarovski Crystal.
