cluponka [151]

 The statement  which is true  is

Fluorine  is more reactive  than nitrogen because fluorine  needs  only  one electron to fill  its  outermost  shell.


     <u><em>Explanation</em></u>

Fluorine  has  electron configuration  of 1S²2S²2P⁵  while nitrogen  has 1S²2S²2P³  electron configuration.

The 2P sub shell  for nitrogen   is  half filled  therefore it is sable  than fluorine.

since  p orbital  can hold a maximum  of  6  electrons ,Fluorine  requires  1 electron  to  completely fill  it's 2P  sub shell  which make it    more  reactive than nitrogen.

Convert 0.00200 g into Mg and answer in scientific notation:
Masja [62]

Answer: 2.00x10^{2}

Explanation: 1 gram is equal to 1000 Milligrams so

0.00200g=\frac{1000mg}{1g}

Since you go straight across its just multiplication so 0.00200x1000=200mg

To answer it in scientific notation it should just be 2.00x10^{2} mg

Explain how atoms are held together in covalent bonds. Give an example of a covalent compound.
asambeis [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Atoms are held together by covalent bonds when they share electrons between themselves.

Covalent bonds are bonds that are formed between non-metals usually with a low electronegative difference between them. In this bond type, two non-metals donate electrons which are shared between the combining atoms and this makes them both like the corresponding noble gases. The shared electrons is what forms the covalent bonds.

An example of covalent bond is HCl, H₂S, SO₂, CO₂, O₂ etc
