Well, when an atom attains a stable valence electron, it means that the outer electrons are complete and so cannot attain any more electrons. For the first shell, it is complete when it has 2 electrons, the second shell is complete when it has 8 electrons, all the other shells also have a particular number when complete. Anyway, i believe the answer is HYDROGEN because when HYDROGEN combines with another atom of HYDROGEN, the outer shell is completed. This is because HYDROGEN has only 1 electron. If the two HYDROGENS, which both have 1 electron combine, they make the electrons 2, which is complete for the first shell, HYDROGEN ends in the first shell. Since the electrons become 2, the shell is at stable valence. In all the other options, this happens;
NEON- It has 10 electrons, 2 in the first shell and 8 in the second. So the the shells are already complete, so it can't bond with any thing, which is completely against the question.
RADON- Radon has 86 electrons.
HELIUM- Helium has 2 electrons, so the shell is already full, and cannot bond, so it goes against the question. The question says BY BONDING.
 So the answer is definitely 4) HYDROGEN
Hope i helped. Have a nice day, by the way, i'm very sure it's hydrogen.

Which is the following is a decomposition reaction
lora16 [44]

The equation that is a decomposition reaction is

PbCO3(s) ---> PbO(s) + CO2(g)

That is option D.

<h3>Properties of a decomposition reaction</h3>

A chemical reaction is defined as the combination of substances called reactants to form a product. The various types of chemical reaction include:

  • synthesis reaction

  • combustion reaction

  • decomposition reaction

  • single or double replacement reaction

Decomposition reaction is that type of chemical reaction in which the reactant breaks down to form two or more products.

Therefore the heating of lead (II) carbonate is a decomposition reaction.
