I believe the correct answer would be that b<span>oiling points and melting points are similar because they both involve the change in a state of a material, but they are different because boiling point involves a change from a liquid to a gas and melting point involves a change from a solid to a liquid. Boiling and melting are phase changes that can happen to a substance however they differ in the process that happens.</span>
First of all write a balanced equation.
4Na + O2 -> 2Na2O
You are starting with a mass of sodium. You need to use sodium’s molar mass. Take this quantity times mole to mole ratio between sodium and sodium oxide to get moles of sodium oxide produced.
.141 moles of sodium oxide produced
The statement which is true about <em>Atom A</em> and <em>Atom B</em> is; Choice B: <em>Atom B will give up electrons to form bonds.</em>
According to the question;
For Atom A:
- the electron configuration is; <em>1s²2s²2p³</em>
- Therefore, it has 5 valence electrons.
For atom B:
- the electron configuration is; <em>1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p¹</em>
- Therefore, it has 3 valence electrons.
Since, electrons need 8 electrons to assume a full octet;
Consequently, Atom B will give up electrons to become stable.
