Answer:
Valence electrons or outer electrons are most important as they participate in bonding. The octet rule states that atoms gain, lose, or share valence electrons to have filled energy levels.. this gives atoms a stable configuration like that of the nearest noble gas.
Once the torch is lit, the acetylene flow must be increased until the flame stops smoking <span>before the oxygen is turned on for adjustment in order to keep the tip of the torch cool.
You should also note that while lighting the torch, you should keep the spark lighter near the tip but not covering it.</span>
The answer is D because they would have to make quarries just below the surface to mine
Mineral ores much quicker (Quarries- a large hole/pit under ground used to get stone and minerals)
You can stop the burning of methane with water or carbon dioxide extinguishers but problems arise when you try to use this to stop the burning of the magnesium.
Explanation:
To burn magnesium (Mg) and methane (CH₄) you need to react them with oxygen:
2 Mg (s) + O₂ (g) → 2 MgO + heat
CH₄ (g) + 2 O₂ (g) → CO₂ (g) + 2 H₂O (g) + heat
However at that temperatures magnesium (Mg) is able to react with water (H₂O) and carbon dioxide (CO₂).
Mg (s) + 2 H₂O (l) → Mg(OH)₂ (s) + H₂ (g)
2 Mg (s) + CO₂ (g) → 2 MgO (s) + C (s)
So the safe option to stop the burning of the magnesium is to limit the oxygen in the air.
we have used the following notations:
(s) - solid
(g) - gas
(l) - liquid

Answer:
k= 1.925×10^-4 s^-1
1.2 ×10^20 atoms/s
Explanation:
From the information provided;
t1/2=Half life= 1.00 hour or 3600 seconds
Then;
t1/2= 0.693/k
Where k= rate constant
k= 0.693/t1/2 = 0.693/3600
k= 1.925×10^-4 s^-1
Since 1 mole of the nuclide contains 6.02×10^23 atoms
Rate of decay= rate constant × number of atoms
Rate of decay = 1.925×10^-4 s^-1 ×6.02×10^23 atoms
Rate of decay= 1.2 ×10^20 atoms/s
