Since nonmetals have five, six, or seven electrons in their valence shells, it takes less energy to gain the necessary electrons, and therefore form anions.
D. level of the water table

<span>"too much water can cause raging floods and flush pollutants and soil into rivers and streams"
</span>the statement i got the answer from
Effect of Hybridisation on Single, Double and Triple Bond Lengths of Carbon. Since the sp hybrid orbital contains more s-character (50%), it is closer to its nucleus; therefore, it forms shorter bonds. Because of the same reason sp2 hybrid orbital forms shorter bonds than sp3 hybrid orbitals.
Correct Answer: option <span>(1) Mn(s)
Reason:
The </span><span>spontaneity of electrochemical cell, depends on the it's Eo value. Electrochemical cells with positve Eo are spontanous and vice-versa.
</span>
In present case, the Eo of half-cell of interest are as follows:
Eo Zn2+/Zn = <span>-0.763v
</span>Eo Mg2+/Mg = 2.37v
Eo Mn2+/Mn = -1.18v
Therefore, Eo cell (with Zn as one of the half-cell) = Eo Zn2+/Zn - Eo Mn2+/Mn
= -0.763 - (-1.18)
= 0.417v
On other hand, Eo cell (with Mg as one of the half-cell) = Eo Mg2+/Zn - Eo Mn2+/Mn
= -2.37 - (-1.18)
= -1.19v
Thus, Mn(s) <span>metal will spontaneously react with Zn2+(aq), but will not spontaneously react with Mg2+(aq)</span>
