A burning splint will burn more vigorously in pure oxygen than in air because <span>oxygen is a reactant in combustion and concentration of oxygen is higher in pure oxygen than is in air.
Oxygen concentration in air is approximately 20%, the rest of are nitrogen, carbon dioxide and other gases. Oxygen is oxidazing reactant, that means oxygen give electrons in chemical reactions.

<span>A burning splint will burn more vigorously in pure oxygen than in air because  </span><u>oxygen is a reactant in combustion and concentration of oxygen is higher in pure oxygen than is in air</u>.

Explanation:
                    As splints a basically made up of wood and is used in testing oxidizing gases like oxygen

                                     C  +  O₂  →  CO₂  

Also we know that pure oxygen contains 100% oxygen, while that %age of oxygen in air is only 20.95 %. Therefore, combustion reaction will be much faster in pure oxygen due to high concentration of oxygen.

Which of the following atoms would gain two electrons to fill its valence energy level?
Harlamova29_29 [7]

The atom that would gain two electrons to fill its valence energy level is S(sulfur)

This is because s (sulfur) is in atomic number 16 with 2.8.6 of [Ne] 3s^2 2p^4 electronic configuration. This implies that sulfur has 6 valence electron and therefore it require two electron to fill its valence energy level and obtain 18 rule electrons.

Forrest spills some acid on the lab floor. He notifies his teacher and begins to look for baking soda to neutralize the acid on
riadik2000 [5.3K]

The other students in the lab should be notified next in this type of scenario.

<h3>What is an acid?</h3>

This is a substance which donates protons and is very corrosive. It also turns blue litmus paper red.

When it was spilled and baking soda was used to neutralize it on the floor , it is best to inform the other students too so as to prevent them from being exposed by mistake thereby reducing risk of injury.

Study the Lewis dot diagram for nitrogen. Explain what is correct and what is incorrect about the diagram. Use details to suppor
Verdich [7]

Answer:

The Lewis dot diagram is supposed to have dots on each side. What's incorrect is that there isn't a dot on the bottom, only the left and right side and the top. What's correct about this is that there are 5 outer valence electrons, and they correctly put 5 dots, even though they're in the wrong place.
