An atom with one valence electron combines with an atom with seven valence electrons.

rusak2 [61]3 years ago

The atom with one valence electron is likely to lose its electron to form an ion with a +1 charge. 

The principle behind this is simple. Atoms wish to have a stable electronic configuration, which requires that their valence shell be complete. If an atom has only one valence electron, then in order to achieve stable configuration, it is easier for it to get rid of the electron and move back to its last completed shell instead of trying to gain 7 electrons to complete the current valence shell.

Pachacha [2.7K]
Solar energy will not run out (unless the sun burns out), but the supply of fossil fuels we use is slowly depleting. Burning fossil fuel also releases greenhouse gas into the air, which is bad for the atmosphere.

Write a procedure that you would follow to demonstrate the effect of increasingly higher concentrations of hydrochloric acid on
Hitman42 [59]
The reaction would produce bubbles of gas.

We can prepare 3-5 test tubes of acid with increasing concentrations. Then, we add antacid tablets to each and note the time taken for the tablet to dissolve and stop producing bubbles. The lesser the time taken, the greater the rate of reaction.

What is the lightest particle in the following 1)electron 2)proton 3)neutron 4)photon
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

1) Electron

Explanation:

It carries a negative charge of 1.602176634 × 10−19 coulomb, which is considered the basic unit of electric charge. The rest mass of the electron is 9.1093837015 × 10−31 kg, which is only 1/1,836the mass of a proton.

Ammonia (NH3) clouds are present around some planets. Calculate the number of grams of ammonia produced by the reaction of 5.4 g
Komok [63]

Answer:

30.4 g. NH3

Explanation:

This problem tells us that the hydrogen (H2) is the limiting reactant, as there is "an excess of nitrogen." Using stoichiometry (the relationship between the various species of the equation), we can see that for every 3 moles of H2 consumed, 2 moles of NH3 are produced.

But before we can use that relationship to find the number of grams of ammonia produced, we need to convert the given grams of hydrogen into moles:

5.4 g x [1 mol H2/(1.008x2 g.)] = 2.67857 mol H2 (not using significant figures yet; want to be as accurate as possible)

Now, we can use the relationship between H2 and NH3.

2.67857 mol H2 x (2 mol NH3/3 mol H2) = 1.7857 mol NH3

Now, we have the number of moles of ammonia produced, but the answer asks us for grams. Use the molar mass of ammonia to convert.

1.7857 mol NH3 x 17.034 g. NH3/mol NH3 = 30.4 g. NH3 (used a default # of 3 sig figs)
