Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Valence electrons is the number of electrons present in the outermost shell of an atom.

So, when we move across a period from left to right then there will be increase in number of valence electrons.

For example, valence electrons in carbon is 4, nitrogen has 5 valence electrons, oxygen has 6 valence electrons.

Thus, we can conclude that number of valence electrons increases for elements change across a period.

How many moles of oxygen can be formed from 250 grams of aluminum oxide
Oksanka [162]
2Al₂O₃ = 4Al + 3O₂

M(A₂O₃)=101.96 g/mol
m(Al₂O₃)=250 g

n(O₂)=3m(Al₂O₃)/{2M(Al₂O₃)}

n(O₂)=3*250/{2*101.96}=3.678 mol

Which of the following weak interactions would require the least amount of energy to disrupt? Group of answer choices
SpyIntel [72]

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A hydrogen bond is defined as a weak bond that is formed between an electropositive atom (generally hydrogen atom) and an electronegative atom like oxygen, nitrogen and fluorine.

An ionic bond is defined as a bond formed between a metal and a non-metal and in this bond transfer of electron takes place from metal to non-metal. And, due to the presence of opposite charges on the combining atoms there exists a strong force of attraction.

Vander waal forces are defined as the weak electric forces which tend to attract neutral molecules towards each other in gases, liquefied and solidified gases.

Vander waal forces are very weak forces.

Thus, we can conclude that Van der walas interactions are weak interactions would require the least amount of energy to disrupt.

Answer:

Explanation: A molecular compound is usually composed of two or more nonmetal elements. Molecular compounds are named with the first element first and then the second element by using the stem of the element name plus the suffix -ide. Numerical prefixes are used to specify the number of atoms in a molecule
