H• •Be• •H --> H:Be:H
Since there are 4 valence electrons in total, Beryllium has 2 and Hydrogen has 2. You would put the Be in the middle because there is only 1 of them.
Answer:
The answer is A. solvent, solute, solution.
Explanation:
Answer:
Li⁺
Explanation:
Li⁺ ions has a noble gas electron configuration because it resembles that of He.
To have a noble configuration, electrons in the outermost shell must completely fill their respective orbitals.
Li⁺ is an ion that has lost one electron from the usual number of 3 thereby remaining 2 electrons.
The electronic configuration is given as;
Li⁺ 1s²
The S orbital can hold a maximum number of just two electrons.
Helium atom has two electrons with electronic configuration of 1s²
Therefore Li⁺ = 1s² = He
B. 8
Although it may seem that transition metals would have more than 8 valence electrons, they in fact do not.
Answer:
D.) 4
Explanation:
Al + 3 O₂ --> 2 Al₂O₃
In the equation, there are:
<em>Reactants:</em> 1 Al and 6 O
<em>Products:</em> 4 Al and 6 O
To determine how many atoms there are of each, you multiply the coefficients by the subscripts attached to the atoms. While the question doesn't ask, as you can see, the oxygen atoms are balanced because there is an equal amount on both sides. To balance the aluminum atoms, you can get 4 aluminum atoms on the reactants side by using a coefficient of 4.
The new equation would look this this:
4 Al + 3 O₂ --> 2 Al₂O₃
There are now:
<em>Reactants:</em> 4 Al and 6 O
<em>Products:</em> 4 Al and 6 O
