How are carbon and nitrogen different from each other when it comes to valence electrons

1 answer:

4 0

Answer:
Carbon has six electrons (2 core and 4 valence), and can form four bonds with neighboring atoms. Nitrogen has seven electrons (2 core and 5 valence)(1s2, 2s2, 2px1, 2py1, 2pz1). So if you are following the rules, you might well assume that nitrogen would be able to form five bonds (after all, it has five valence electrons.)

Pretend that you are the size of an atom, observing a reaction between a potassium atom and a fluorine atom. Write an account of

natka813 [3]

Potassium will loss it's electron because it have a character of electropositively therefore it's electron will transfer to flouren which will make stable and complete of it's electro configuration. Now potassium will have negative charge due to loss it's outer most electron on it's orbit and flourine will take negatively charge too because of complete it's outer most shell to be completed.(But we have to know that at first flourine was had a positive charge because of not completed of it's outer most shell)

In what type of reaction or process does heat flow into the system

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer: The correct answer is: " endothermic . "

______________________________________

Note: Heat flows into [heat may be absorbed within] an "endothermic" reaction or system

To the contrary, heat flows out  [heat may exit from or may be released from] an "exothermic" reaction or process.

Hint: Think of the "prefixes" of: "endothermic" and "exothermic" :

_____________________________________

1) endo- = "within" (as in "endothermic" —heat tends to be absorbed/"within"/"released within"/released within"/into" ;

2) exo- = " outwards"/"exit" (as in "exothermic") —heat tends to '"exit"/leave/escape from/"be released out of/form".
