The correct description for an atom of helium would be option C. An atom of helium has its valence electrons in its first energy level, it wouldn't and can't satisfy the Octet rule as it only has 2 electrons, but with 2, it has a full shell, as the first energy level can hold only 2 electrons.

Your question has been heard loud and clear.

Both scientific laws and scientific theories are not based on hypothesis.

Because , scientific laws are proven and so they are real not hypothetical.

Whereas scientifc theories can be hypothetical.

Thank you

Assign each species to the expression that most accurately describes the basic units of that substance. categories: single atoms
Temka [501]
Atoms are the smallest form of the substance. examples of atoms are in elemental forms such as copper, helium, silver. Diatomic molecules are made up of identical atoms. Examples are I2.. F2 and Br2. Formula units are those compounds that are made up of two or more elements such as -No2, KMnO4,<span>C3H8, MgCl2, HgBr2, Ba(OH)2</span>

How many capsules containing 75mg of Tamiflu could be produced from 155g of star anise.?
jeyben [28]
From the question you will find that:
one capsule of tamiflu is obtained from 2.6 g of star anise.
1 capsule   = 2.6 g tamiflu
? capsules = 155 g tamiflu
by cross multiplication = \frac{(1 x 155)}{2.6} = 59 capsules

Complete and balance the molecular equation, including the phases, for the reaction of aqueous potassium sulfate, k2so4, and aqu
Tju [1.3M]
The reaction between K₂SO₄(aq) and SrI₂(aq) produces KI(aq) and SrSO₄(s) as products. 

The reaction is 
K₂SO₄(aq) + SrI₂(aq) → KI(aq)+ SrSO₄(s) 

To balance the equation both side of the reaction should have same number of atoms in each element.

Right hand side of the reaction has 1 K, 1 I, 1 Sr, 1 S and 4 O atoms while 2 K, 2 I, 1 Sr,1 S and 4 O present in left hand side of the reaction. 
Hence, number of I atoms and number of K atoms are not balanced. 
To balance the K atoms we should add 2 before KI. Then I atoms will be 2 at the right hand side. 

Hence, the balanced reaction equation is
K₂SO₄(aq) + SrI₂(aq) → 2KI(aq)+ SrSO₄(s)
