How does the octet rule allow you to predict the charge an ion will have?

 <span>Because of the octet rule, it is easy to predict the charge of the ion of an element. Look at the number of valence electrons the element has. If it is between 1 and 4 the atom will most likely loose those electrons to become stable, making it a positive ion with the charge of the number of electrons it will lose. If it has between 4 and 8 valence electrons the atom will most likely gain electrons to achieve a full outer ring of 8 electrons. Its atom will have a negative charge of the number of electrons it needs to have 8 total. Hope I Helped If You Don't Mind May I Have A Brainliest Answer Please? :)</span>

A 28.5 gram piece of iron is added to a graduated cylinder containing 45.5 mL of water. The water in the cylinder rises to the 4
yan [13]

7.91 g/ml is the density of the iron piece of 28.5 gms.

Explanation:

The density of a substance is defined as the volume it occupies.  It tells the matter present in a substance.

The density is mass per unit volume and is denoted by p.

The formula for density is given by:

density (p) = \frac{mass}{volume}

Data given is :

mass= 28.5 grams

V1 = 45.5 ml

V2= 49.1 ml

The initial volume of water was 45.5 ml, when iron piece of 28.5 grams was added the final volume was 49.1 ml.

Putting the values in the equation of density

p = \frac{28.5}{49.1-45.5}

p = 7.91 g/ml

Since iron is a dense material it will occupy less volume
