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

Chemistry
1 answer:
Tasya [4]3 years ago
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.)

Why did bohrs observations of gaseous elements not reveal a complete spectrum when the light was shone through a prism? explain
Vika [28.1K]
The Bohr model proposed that electrons could just have characterized vitality levels thus when rotting back to a lower vitality level discharge a specific measure of vitality. Since the measure of vitality could be changed over to a specific recurrence then particular emanation lines were found in the electromagnetic range. Alternate speculations couldn't clarify the discharge lines.

A beaker of nitric acid is neutralized with dilute aqueous solution of calcium hydroxide.Write a net ionic equation for this rea
Soloha48 [4]
Complete balanced equation: 2HNO₃  +  Ca(OH)₂  →  Ca(NO₃)₂  +  2H₂O

Ionized equation (with spectator ions): 
   2H⁺  +  2NO₃⁻  +  Ca²⁺  +  2OH⁻   →  Ca²⁺  +  2NO₃⁻  +  2H₂O

By eliminating the ions that are the same of both sides of the equation (spectator ions):
    
2H⁺  +   2OH⁻   →    2H₂O    [Net Ionic Equation]

Which term names the concentration of salts dissolved in a liquid?
Viefleur [7K]
Hey there!
The answer is D, Salinity.
Salinity is the concentration of salt in water. Ocean water often has high salinity and this can contribute to things like upwelling and water density- but these all start from salinity.
Hope this helps!
