Answer:
The possible valances can be determined by electron configuration and electron negativity
Good Luck even though this was asked 2 weeks ago
Explanation:
All atoms strive for stability. The optima electron configuration is the electron configuration of the VIII A family or inert gases.
Look at the electron configuration of the nonmetal and how many more electrons the nonmetal needs to achieve the stable electron configuration of the inert gases. Non metals tend to be negative in nature and gain electrons. ( They are oxidizing agents)
For example Florine atomic number 9 needs one more electron to reach a valance number of 8 electrons to equal Neon atomic number 10. Hence Flowrine has a valance of -1
Oxygen atomic number 8 needs two more electrons to reach a valance number of 8 electrons to equal Neon atomic number 10. Hence Oxygen has a valance charge of -2.
Non metals with a low electron negativity will lose electrons when reacting with another non metal that has a higher electron negativity. When the non metal forms an ion it is necessary to look at the electron structure to determine how many electrons the element can lose to gain stability.
For example Chlorine which is normally -1 like Florine when it combines with oxygen can be +1, +3, + 5 or +7. It can lose its one unpaired electron, or combinations of the unpaired electron and sets of the three pairs of electrons.
Answer:
I think the right answer is c/ number of atomic orbitals
Answer:
A battery contains electrochemical cells that can store chemical energy to be converted to electrical energy. A dry-cell battery stores energy in an immobilized electrolyte paste, which minimizes the need for water. Common examples of dry-cell batteries include zinc-carbon batteries and alkaline batteries.
Explanation: i hope this helps sorry if it didnt
Pressure does not affect the voltage produced in a voltaic cell.
Answer:
True.
Explanation:
To know which option is correct, let us calculate the number of mole present in 60g of calcium. This is illustrated below:
Mass of Ca = 60g
Molar Mass of Ca = 40g/mol
Number of mole Ca =....?
Number of mole = Mass/Molar Mass
Number of mole of Ca = 60/40
Number of mole Ca = 1.5 moles.
From the calculations made above, we can see that 1.5 moles are present in 60.0 grams of calcium
