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.

What is the oxidation number of chromium in the ionic compound ammonium dichromate (nh4)2cr2o7?
lesya692 [45]
The oxidation number of an element is the number of electrons that are gained or lost by the element to form a chemical bond. 
the net oxidation number of the ion is its charge.
compound (NH₄)₂Cr₂O₇ is made of cation - NH₄⁺ and anion - Cr₂O₇²⁻
oxidation number of ion - -2
(oxidation number of Cr x 2 Cr atoms) +(oxidation number of O x 7 O atoms )= -2
oxidation number of Cr = y
oxidation number of O = -2
(y x 2) + (-2 x 7) = -2
2y - 14 = -2
2y = 12
y  = + 6
therefore oxidation number of Cr is +6

A beaker has a mass of 77.275 calculate this mass in mg
Rainbow [258]
By definitions of the prefixes in the metric system, the prefix milli- (abbreviated as m as in mg) indicates 1/1000 or 1 x 10^-3 of a gram. In this case, if a beaker has a mass of 77.275 g (I am assuming this is grams since most other units would make it too heavy or too light), we would multiply this by 1000 to convert it to milligrams. So 77.275 g = 77,275 mg.
