Answer:

Surface tension is the result of water molecules pulling inward with a strong attractive force. This attractive force brings the molecules on the surface of the water close together and causes the surface of the water to be drawn toward the water molecules beneath the surface. Since there are no water molecules above the surface, there are uneven forces. This causes surface tension, allowing the coin to float on the water’s surface.

What is the "magic number' of valence electrons? How does this influence the type of bonds formed by various combinations of
svp [43]

Magic number is any number in electron shells that suggest stability. It corresponds to total number of electrons in filled electron shells.

If an electron is having magic number, then it forms stable bonds.

Explanation:

The magic numbers are 2,10,18,36,54, 86 and 126. This refers to the total number of electrons that an electron can have when it is completely filled.

Atomic nuclei which carries either of these nucleons have high binding energy as compared to others. Hence, they have high stability. Bonds in such elements are more strong.

Radioactive decay of such elements is very slow.

Eugene Winger coined the term "magic number".
