which atoms attains a stable valence electron configuration by bonding with another atom 1) neon 2) radon 3) helium 4) hyrdogen

1 answer:

3 0

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.

Answer:-

1) 6 mol

2) Mo

Explanation: -

Mass of Ozone = 48 g

Chemical formula of ozone = O3

Molar mass of Ozone O 3 = 16 x 3 = 48 g mol-1

Number of moles of ozone = Mass / molar mass

= 48 g / 48 g mol-1

= 1 mol

According to Avogadro’s law, 1 mole of a substance has 6.02 x 10^ 22 molecules.

So 1 mol of O3 has 6.02 x 10^ 22 molecules of ozone.

Now each Ozone molecule has 3 atoms of oxygen.

So, 1 mol of ozone has 3 x 6.02 x 10^22 atoms of oxygen.

Sodium must have 2 x 3 x 6.02 x 10^22 atoms as per the question.

According to Avogadro’s law, 6.02 x 10^ 22 atoms are in 1 mol of sodium

So, for 2 x 3 x 6.02 x 10^22 atoms, there should be (1/ 6.02 x 10^ 22) x 2 x 3 x 6.02 x 10^22

= 6 mol of sodium.

Let the mass of M be m g

Formula of hexafluoride = MF6.

Mass of the hexafluoride = g + 6 x 19

= m + 114

Mass of M=0.250g

Moles of M = 0.250/m

Mass of MF6= 0.547g

Moles of MF6 = 0.547/ (m + 114)

We know 1 mole of M gives 1 mole of MF6.

0.250/m moles of M gives 0.250/m moles of MF6.

But number of moles of MF6 = 0.547/ (m + 114)

Thus

0.250/m = (0.547)/ (m +114))

0.250m + 0.250 x 114 = 0.547m

m = 0.250 x 114 / (0.547 -0.250)

= 96

We see from the given data that Mo is 96.

So M is Mo.

What are the trends for atomic size and ionization? Explain why for each trend. Tell me the direction- up or down a group and ac

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Atomic size increases down the group due to the addition of more shells.

As more shells are added and repulsion of inner electrons become more significant, atomic size increases down the group. However, across the period, atomic size decreases due to increase in effective nuclear charge without any increase in the number of shells. This causes increased attraction between the nucleus and the outermost shell thereby decreasing the size of the atom.

Ionization energy decreases down the group because the outermost electron is more shielded by inner electrons making it easier for this outermost electron to be lost. Across the period, ionization energy increases due to increase in effective nuclear charge which makes it more difficult to remove the outermost electron due to increased nuclear attraction.

HI

So, the formula for water is H2O

When you have the same amount of the reactants , hydrogen will be the limiting reactant.
Limiting reactant is the thing that runs out first.
