He. it is a noble gas and therefore has a full outer shell of electrons. it does not need to gain or loose any.

Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Ions are the species that form when a neutral atom either gains or loses an electron.

For example, atomic number of beryllium is 4 and its electronic distribution is 2, 2. So, in order to attain stability by losing its valence electrons Be will form a Be^{2+} ion.

Whereas atomic number of helium is 2 and its electronic configuration is 1s^{2}.

Since, it has completely filled octet so, it will neither gain or lose an electron as it is stable in nature. Hence, it will not form ions.

Thus, we can conclude that the atoms He element will NOT typically form ions.

Calculate the grams of so2 gas present at stp in a 5.9 l container.
nata0808 [166]

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of sulfur dioxide gas at STP for given amount is 16.8 g

<u>Explanation:</u>

At STP conditions:

22.4 L of volume is occupied by 1 mole of a gas.

So, 5.9 L of volume will be occupied by = \frac{1mol}{22.4L}\times 5.9L=0.263mol

Now, to calculate the mass of a substance, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Moles of sulfur dioxide gas = 0.263 mol

Molar mass of sulfur dioxide gas = 64 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.263mol=\frac{\text{Mass of sulfur dioxide gas}}{64g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of sulfur dioxide gas}=(0.263mol\times 64g/mol)=16.8g

Hence, the mass of sulfur dioxide gas at STP for given amount is 16.8 g

The following equation is balanced correctly. 4C2H6 + 7O2 --&gt; 6H2O + 4CO2<br> True <br> False
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer: False

Explanation:

4C2H6 + 7O2 --> 6H2O + 4CO2

8 Carbons on the reactant side, but 4 Carbons on the Product

24 Hydrogens on Reactant, 12 H on product

But Oxygen is balanced, 14 on each side
