Answer:
The correct answer is option A, that is, one valence electron in its third energy shell and option C, that is, 11 electrons and 11 protons.
Explanation:
The outermost electrons and the ones that take part in the process of bonding are termed as valence electrons. The atomic number of sodium is 11, thus, it possesses 11 protons and the atoms are neutral so it suggests that sodium has 11 electrons. By electronic configuration, it can be seen that in sodium, two electrons are present in the first shell, 8 in the second, and only one electron in the third shell, that is, 2.8.1. The electron present in the third shell is the valence electron.
Solubility is the maximum amount of a substance that will dissolve in a given amount of solvent at a specific temperature. There are two direct factors that affect solubility: temperature and pressure. Temperature affects the solubility of both solids and gases, but pressure only affects the solubility of gases.
1) B+3 is ok. The exercise already put B+3. What

2) Ge is a neutral atom because it doesn't have any charge.
Germanium has 32 electrons and 32 protons because its atomic number is 32.
Be careful with that.
Neutral atoms have the same numbers of electrons and protons.

Answer:
2.1056L or 2105.6mL
Explanation:
We'll begin by calculating the number of mole in 10g of Na2CO3. This can be obtained as follow:
Molar mass of Na2CO3 = (23x2) + 12 + (16x3) = 106g/mol
Mass of Na2CO3 = 10g
Mole of Na2CO3 =.?
Mole = mass /molar mass
Mole of Na2CO3 = 10/106
Mole of Na2CO3 = 0.094 mole
Next, we shall determine the number of mole CO2 produced by the reaction of 0.094 mole of Na2CO3. This is illustrated below:
Na2CO3 + 2HCl —> 2NaCl + H2O + CO2
From the balanced equation above,
1 mole of Na2CO3 reacted to produce 1 mole of CO2.
Therefore, 0.094 mole of Na2CO3 will also react to 0.094 mole of CO2.
Next, we shall determine the volume occupied by 0.094 mole of CO2 at STP. This is illustrated below:
1 mole of a gas occupy 22.4L at STP. This implies that 1 mole CO2 occupies 22.4L at STP.
Now, if 1 mole of CO2 occupy 22.4L at STP, then, 0.094 mole of CO2 will occupy = 0.094 x 22.4 = 2.1056L
Therefore, the volume of CO2 produced is 2.1056L or 2105.6mL
(1) 14C also known as Carbon-14, is used to radio-date organic materials as well as earth materials.
