To find<span> the </span>valence electrons in an atom<span>, identify what group the element is in. An element in group 1A has 1 </span>valence electron<span>. For example, Li is in group 1A, so that means it has one </span>valence electron. If the element is in group 2A, then it has two valence electrons<span>.</span>

Answer:

1(a) N = 3

(b) N = 0

(c) N = 5

(d) N = -2

(2) Molecular formula for benzene is C6H6

Explanation:

1(a) N02 1-

N + (2×-2) = -1

N-4 = -1

N = -1+4 = 3

(b) N2

2(N) = 0

N = 0/2 = 0

(c) NO2Cl

N + ( 2×-2) + (-1) = 0

N - 4 - 1 = 0

N - 5 = 0

N = 0+5 = 5

(d) N2H4

2(N) + (4×1) = 0

2N + 4 = 0

2N = 0 - 4 = -4

N = -4/2 = -2

(2) Molcular mass of benzene = 78g/mole = (6×12g of carbon) + (6×1g of hydrogen) = 72+6 = 78g/mole

Therefore, molecular formula for benzene is C6H6

Water has a density of 1 g/cc. If you have 1 cc of water, how much mass does it contain?
rewona [7]
Water has a density of 1 g/cc. If you have 1 cc of water, then the mass it contains would be 1 g. <span>Density is a physical property of a substance that represents the mass of that substance per unit volume. It is a property that can be used to describe a substance. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>
