Considering the nonmetals what is the relationship between the group number for an element (carbon, for example, belongs to grou

The Octet rule is essential to obey nature's law of stability. Among all the elements in the periodic table, the noble gases in Group 8 are the most stable in. Hence, all the other elements aim to achieve their electronic configuration. So, all elements must bond with others to conform to be a part of group 8. 

<em>Bonds for non metals = 8 - Group number</em>
Ex:
Bonds for oxygen = 8 - 4 = 4
Bonds for nitrogen = 8 - 5 = 3

Explanation:

Molecular equation: Chemical equation in which molecular formula of reactants and products are written

Complete ionic equation:Chemical equation in which ionic from if reactants reactants and products are written along with spectator ions (ions present on both sides of equation).

Net ionic equation :Chemical equation in which only ions of those reactant are written which giving product without  spectator ions (ions present on both sides of equation).

(a) Ca^{2+}(aq) + SO_4^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow CaSO_4(s)

net ionic equation.

(b) CuSO_4(aq) + 2KOH(aq)\rightarrow Cu(OH))_2(s) + K_2SO_4(aq)

Molecular equation

(c)Ba^{2+} (aq) + SO_4^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow BaSO_4(s)

Net ionic equation.

(d) Ag^+(aq) + NO_{3}^-(aq) + I^-(aq)\rightarrow AgI(s) + NO_{3}^-(aq)

What kind of electrical charges do protons,electrons, and neutrons have?​
Vinil7 [7]

<em><u>Protons</u></em><em><u> = Positive Charge</u></em>

<em><u>Neutrons</u></em><em><u> = Neutral Charge/No Charge</u></em>

<em><u>Electrons</u></em><em><u> = Negative Charge</u></em>

<em>This one's simple: electrons have a negative charge, protons have a positive charge and neutrons — as the name implies — are neutral.</em>

<u><em>Protons</em></u>

<em>Elements are differentiated from each other by the number of protons within their nucleus. For example, carbon atoms have six protons in their nucleus. Atoms with seven protons are nitrogen atoms. The number of protons for each element is known as the atomic number and does not change in chemical reactions. In other words, the elements at the beginning of a reaction -- known as the reactants -- are the same elements at the end of a reaction -- known as the products.</em>

<em />

<em><u>Neutrons</u></em>

<em>Although elements have a specific number of protons, atoms of the same element may have different numbers of neutrons and are termed isotopes. For example, hydrogen has three isotopes, each with a single proton. Protium is an isotope of hydrogen with zero neutrons, deuterium has one neutron, and tritium has two neutrons. Although the number of neutrons may differ between isotopes, the isotopes all behave in a chemically similar manner.</em>

<em />

<u><em>Electrons</em></u>

<em>Electrons are not bound as tightly to the atom as protons and neutrons. This allows electrons to be lost, gained or even shared between atoms. Atoms that lose an electron become ions with a +1 charge, since there is now one more proton than electrons. Atoms that gain an electron have one more electron than protons and become a -1 ion. Chemical bonds that hold atoms together to form compounds result from these changes in the number and arrangement of electrons.</em>
