Answer:
only chlorine can expand its octet.
Explanation:
An atom can expand its octet is it has empty d orbital
the electronic configuration of given elements will be:
B : 1s2 2s2 2p1 [Valence shell n =2 no d orbital]
O :1s2 2s2 2p4 [Valence shell n =2 no d orbital]
F : 1s2 2s2 2p5 [Valence shell n =2 no d orbital]
Cl :1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p5 3d0 [Valence shell n =2 no d orbital]
Out of given elements only chlorine has empty d orbitals in its valence shell
Thus only chlorine can expand its octet.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
They are stabil and full of valence electron.
Answer:

Explanation:
We know we will need an equation with masses and molar masses, so let’s gather all the information in one place.
M_r: 58.12 44.01
2C₄H₁₀ + 13O₂ ⟶ 8CO₂ + 10H₂O
m/g: 9.511
1. Moles of C₄H₁₀

2. Moles of CO₂
The molar ratio is 8 mol CO₂:2 mol C₄H₁₀

3. Mass of CO₂

Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
At the same temperature, the average kinetic energy of gases depends on the molecular mass of the gas. Hence, given a particular temperature, lighter molecules travel faster on the average than heavier molecules.
Considering ethanol and octane, The molar mass of ethanol is 46.07 g/mol while the molar mass of octane is 114.23 g/mol. Hence, ethanol has a greater average kinetic energy than octane at the same temperature.
