 <span>In a Naatom, there are 11 protons controlling 11 electrons by electrostatic attraction. In Na+ there are 11 protons controlling 10 electrons (you lost one to give Na+), so they can pull them in tighter!!</span>

Which of the following statements best describes why carbon can form a variety of organic compounds? Carbon atoms bond readily w
olga_2 [115]
Answer:
            <span>Carbon readily forms covalent bonds with other carbon atoms.

Explanation:
                   As we know approximately more than 95 % compounds, either isolated, discovered or synthesized belongs to organic compounds containing carbon atoms.
                  This great diversity of organic compounds is due to following facts.

1) Catenation:
                      Carbon has a peculiar behavior of self linkage. This self linkage of one carbon with another is called as catenation. In this way carbon can form a long chain of carbon atom. A branching can also take place when one carbon is bonded further to three of four carbon atoms.

2) Isomerism:
                     Secondly the carbon containing compounds show isomerism. In which molecular formula is same but structural formula is different. For example molecular formula C</span>₅H₁₂ can make following compounds,

                                a)  n-Pentane

                                b)  2-Methylbutane

                                c)  2,2-Dimethylpropane

3) Multiple Bonds:
                            Carbon can form multiple bonds i.e double bond like in alkenes and triple bonds like in alkyne. 

Due to these factors carbon gets very high number of opportunities to form large number of compounds.

Select all that apply. choose the two correct statements below. the elements of the halogen family are very reactive because: th
Harman [31]
Halogens are a group of elements consisting of Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, Iodine and Astatine. In their ionic form, they have a superscript of -1, for example, chloride ion is Cl-1. These means that they readily accept one electron in order to achieve the Octet rule. The Octet rule states that each atom must contain 8 electrons in their valence shell for it to be stable. The most stable set of elements are the noble gases. Because they already fulfill the Octet rule, they no longer take part in reactions. Halogens are also very electronegative, meaning, they attract more electrons toward them. This is also a consequence of the Octet rule.

From the choices, the answers would be:
<span>they require only one electron to complete their outer shell
they have a high electronegativity</span>

Concentrated hydrochloric acid, HCl, comes with an approximate molar concentration of 12.1 M. If you are instructed to prepare 3
Semmy [17]

Answer:

28.20 mL of the stock solution.

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include the following:

Molarity of stock solution (M1) = 12.1 M

Volume of diluted solution (V2) = 350.0 mL

Molarity of diluted solution (M2) = 0.975 M

Volume of stock solution needed (V1) =..?

The volume of stock solution needed can be obtained by using the dilution formula as shown below:

M1V1 = M2V2

12.1 x V1 = 0.975 x 350

Divide both side by 12.1

V1 = (0.975 x 350)/12.1

V1 = 28.20 mL.

Therefore, 28.20 mL of the stock solution will be needed to prepare 350.0 mL of 0.975 M HCl solution.

An exciton is: A charged particle made of electrons A charged particle made of holes A neutral particle made of an electron and
Alex

Answer:

A neutral particle made of an electron and hole

Explanation:

Exciton

It is the combination of an electron and a hole ( hole refers to the vacancy of an electron ) . And , as both the electron and the hole have the same charge but the polarity is opposite , the combination will lead to a neutral compound , i.e. ,  Exciton have no charge and so neutral .

It is free to move in the nonmetallic crystal and since it charge less , it is difficult to detect it directly .
