Answer:
Option C. Gain 1 electron
Explanation:
Valence electron(s) are the electron(s) located on the outermost shell of an atom. Valency is simply defined as the combining power of an atom.
Chlorine (Cl) atom has 7 valence electron. This implies that Cl needs just one electron to complete it's octet configuration. It will be difficult for Cl to lose any of it's valence electron(s). Cl can either gain or share 1 electron to become stable.
Thus, considering the options given in the question above, option C gives the correct answer to the question.
Answer:
Explanation:
1. Atomic numbers:
Atomic number is the number of protons in an atom. It is one of the most diagonistic and representative number used in identifying an atom. The periodic table of element arranges elements based on this number.
No two elements have the same atomic number.
Protons are positively charged particles in an atom.
- In a neutral atom, the atomic number is the same as the number electrons since electrical neutrality is attained when the number of protons and electrons are the same.
- The atomic number determines the position of an atom on the periodic table and it is unique for every atom.
2.
Periodic patterns
These are trends on that can be predicted on the periodic table because they shew regularities down a group or sometimes across the period.
Some of these trends are atomic radius, electronegativity, metallicity, nuclear charge e.t.c
Properties of elements can be predicted using these patterns even before they are discovered.
b.
Physical property shared by Helium, Argon and Neon is that they are all gases. All group 8 elements are called noble or inert gases.
Chemical property of these elements: they are chemically unreactive.
These gases are very stable having complete electronic shell configuration. Every atom on the periodic table tries to attain the state of the noble gases.
C.
Noble Gases/ Inert Gases/ Group O elements
Answer: K only has 1 valence electron. It will leave with only a little effort, leaving behind a positively charged K^+1 atom.
Explanation: A neutral potassium atom has 19 total electrons. But only 1 of them is in potassium's valence shell. Valence shell means the outermost s and p orbitals. Potasium's electron configuration is 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^6 4s^1. The 4s orbital is the only orbital in the 4th energy level. So it has a valency of 1. This means this electron will be the most likely to leave, since it is the lone electron in the oyutermost energy level (4). When that electron leaves, the charge on the atom go up by 1. The atom now has a full valence shell of 3s^2 3p^6, the same as argon, Ar.
Answer:15g
Explanation:
According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of the products in a chemical reaction must equal the mass of the reactants.
10g + 5g ➡️ 15g
