Answer: The atom will have a full valence electron shell.

Explanation:

Covalent bond is defined as the bond which is formed after the sharing of electrons takes place between the atoms. This is usually formed between two non-metals.

For Example: HCl is formed by the combination of hydrogen and chlorine atoms.

Hydrogen is the 1st element of the periodic table having electronic configuration of $1s^1$

Chlorine is the 17th element of the periodic table having electronic configuration of $1s^22s^22p^63s^22p^5$

Both the elements require 1 electron to complete their valence shell. Thus, both the elements will share electrons in order to form a stable compound of hydrogen chloride.

Hence, the atom will have a full valence electron shell.

How does a solution differ from a heterogeneous mixture?

belka [17]

Both are considered mixtures - that is, they are made up of two or more pure substances. ... A heterogeneous mixture appears to be made of differentsubstances. A solution appears the same throughout. In the fluid phase (gas or liquid, or any combination of those) a solution is transparent (thought not colourless). hope that helps

In a molecule of calcium sulfide, calcium has two valence electron bonds, and a sulfur atom has six valence electrons. How many

mote1985 [20]

There are none

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

a molecule of calcium sulfide

two valence electron of Calcium(Ca)

six valence electrons of Sulfur(S)

Required

number of lone pairs of electrons

Solution

Lewis structure shows the form of bonds that occur in the valence electrons of an element or compound

Valence electrons are electrons used in a chemical bond

To achieve stability, the element S needs 2 more electrons which are obtained from 2 electrons from the Ca element,

A lone pair electron means refers to an unshared pair of electrons(not bonding to the other atoms)

This condition usually occurs in covalent bonds

As we know, the bond between Ca, which is a group 2 (metal) with Sulfur in group 16, is an ionic bond because it occurs between metal and non-metal ions, so there is no sharing of electrons, but there is a release of electrons from Ca ions to S ions to form an octet. , so all the valence electrons in S are paired

Which two processes of the water cycle absorb energy from the Sun?

Solnce55 [7]

Answer: of Earth's atmosphere occurs as energy, primarily from the sun, causes liquid water to transform to another phase. As this occurs, liquid water absorbs energy, causing it to evaporate and form water vapor. The process of evaporation absorbs tremendous amounts of incoming solar energy.
