<u>Answer:</u> The number of valence electrons in sulfur atom are 6.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The isotopic representation of sulfur atom is _{16}^{32}\textrm{S}

Valence electrons are defined as the electrons that are present in the outer most orbital of an atom. Electrons present in the orbitals having highest principle quantum number are termed as valence electrons.

Sulfur is the 16th element of the periodic table having 16 electrons.

Electronic configuration of sulfur atom is 1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^4

The number of valence electrons present in sulfur atom are 2 + 4 = 6

Hence, the number of valence electrons in sulfur atom are 6.

Provide at least three indicators of a chemical change that are present in burning a piece of paper.
Pie

Answer:

Some chemical indicators perceived while a piece of paper is burning are:

Production of an Odor: there is a smell of burnt paper

Change in Temperature:  combustion is a highly exothermic reaction , so the temperature increase

Change in Color: paper changes to ashes as the burning process occurs

A material has a volume of 63.0 cm3 and a mass of 28 grams.  What is the density of the material in g/cm3 to the correct number
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

0.4444 g/cm³ ≅ 0.44 g/cm³ (2 significant figures).

Explanation:

  • Knowing that:

<em>d = m/V,</em>

where, d is the density of the material (g/cm³).

m is the mass of the material (m = 28 g).

V is the volume of the material (V = 63.0 cm³).

<em>∴ d = m/V </em>= (28 g)/(63.0 cm³) = <em>0.4444 g/cm³ ≅ 0.44 g/cm³ (2 significant figures).</em>

-Lithium: Lithium got 3 protons, so it atomic number is 3. It is located on the first column of the periodic table, and belonging to the alkali metal. So lithium is a metal. Lithium is highly reactive.
-Neon: It is located on the 18th column of the periodic table, and belong to the noble gases. So Neon is a nonmetal. Neon's reactivity is very low.
-Fluorine: Located on the 17th column of the periodic metal, fluorine is a nonmetal, and belong to the halogen family. Fluorine's reactivity is high.

2)
-Vertical columns of the periodic table are called columns. There is 18 column in the periodic table, and each one represent a chemical family.
-Horizontal rows of the periodic table care called periods. There is 7 periods in the periodic table.
-The number of protons in an atom is that element's atomic number. And since the atom is electrically neutral, the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons. So if you have the number of electrons, you can still find the atomic number.
-The total of protons and neutrons in an atom is that element's atomic mass. Based on the formula A = Z + N, where A represents the atomic mass, Z the atomic number (number of protons) and N the number of neutrons.
-The elements in group 1 are the most reactive metals. This group is called the Alkali metals. They only have 1 electron in their outer shell which makes them always ready to lose an electron in an ionic bonding.
-The elements in group 17 are the most reactive nonmetals. This group is called the Halogens, with 7 electrons in their outer shell which makes them always ready to win an electron in an ionic bonding.
-The elements in group 18 are the most unreactive elements. This group is called the Noble gases. Their outer shell is always full, so it can't do reactions.

Hope this Helps! :)

The accepted value for the mass of a moonrock is 46.37 g. In an experiment the rock is measured to be 47.25 g. What is the perce
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>2.00 %</h2>

Explanation:

The percentage error of a certain measurement can be found by using the formula

P(\%) =  \frac{error}{actual \:  \: number}  \times 100\% \\

From the question

actual measurement = 46.37 g

error = 47.25 - 46.37 = 0.88

The percentage error of the measurement is

P(\%) =  \frac{0.88}{46.37}  \times 100 \\  = 1.89777873...

We have the final answer as

<h3>2.00 %</h3>

Hope this helps you
