Answer:
Two non bonded electron pairs and four bonded electron pairs
Explanation:
An image of the compound as obtained from chemlibretext is attached to this answer.
The ion ICl4- ion, is an AX4E2 ion. This implies that there are four bond pairs and two lone pairs of electrons. As expected, the shape of the ion is square planar since the lone pairs are found above and below the plane of the square. This is clear from the image attached.
Answer:
Half life is the time taken by a radio active isotope to reduce by half of its original amount. Radium-226 has a half life of 1602 years meaning that it would take 1602 years for a mass of radium to reduce by half.
Number of half lives in 9612 years = 9612/1602 = 6 half lives
New mass = Original mass x (1/2)n where n is the number of half lives.
Therefore, New mass= 500 x (1/2)∧6
= 500 x 0.015625
= 7.8125 g
Hence the mass of radium after 9612 years will be 7.8125 grams.
Explanation:
Ans: Elements in the same period have the same number of electron shells.
Answer:
B) As you move across the row, the number of electrons increases and reactivity also increases.
Explanation:
The periodic table is arranged in a way that if you go across a period, the number of protons, neutrons, and electrons in an element increases. In terms of reactivity, the most reactive elements are the ones which have a high electronegativity. The electronegativity of the elements increases as you travel to the right and upwards on the periodic table.
The third answer because there are two of each atom
