Answer:

Magnesium

Explanation:

Using the KLMN styled electronic configuration, the electronic configuration of sulphur with atomic number 16 is 2, 8,6

What this means is that it needs extra 2 electrons to fill into its M shell to attain the octet configuration.

Now let’s look at Magnesium, with atomic number 12, the electronic configuration it has is 2,8,2.

This means it has 2 extra electrons to give away so as to attain its own stability.

The sulphur atom will gladly accept the two electrons which the magnesium atom wants to give away. This makes it the perfect element to be reacted with sulphur to make it attain its octet configuration

A fuel tank holds 22.3 gallons of gasoline. If the density is 0.8206 g/mL, what is the mass in kilograms of gasoline in a full t

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

$m=69.3kg$

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the density is computed by dividing the mass of the substance by its occupied volume (d=m/V), we first need to realize that 0.8206 g/mL is the same to 0.8206 kg/L, which means we first need to compute the volume in L:

$V=22.3gal*\frac{3.78541L}{1gal}=84.415L$

Then, solving for the mass in d=m/V, we get m=d*V and therefore the mass of gasoline in that full tank turns out:

$m=0.8206g/L*84.415L\\\\m=69.3kg$

Best regards!

gogolik [260]

The concentration after dilution is 1.4%.

We are aware that concentration and volume are related to each other by the formula -

$C_{1}$ $V_{1}$ = $C_{2}$ $V_{2}$ , where we have initial concentration and volume on Left Hand Side and final concentration and volume on Right Hand Side.

Keep the values to calculate final concentration.

$C_{2}$ = (53.5 × 5.4)/205.0

Performing multiplication on Right and Side

$C_{2}$ = 288.9/205.0

Performing division on Right Hand Side

$C_{2}$ = 1.4%

Hence, the final concentration is 1.4%.

How is a molecule of hydrogen formed from two hydrogen atoms?

Shtirlitz [24]

A molecule of hydrogen is formed by two hydrogen atoms, that is a fact.

How does it work? When two atoms, known as "diatomic" pair with another in a bond known non-polar covalent bonds. Where they equally share electrons. A Hydrogen atoms needs 1 more electrons to fill its first shell fully and have a full valence shell. So if two H's share their electrons, they'll both have a full V-Shell!

That's the basics of both the H-H bond and all the other diatomic bonds as well.
