Chlorine atom has 17 electrons. It<span> has seven </span>valence electrons<span>. These seven electrons make </span>chlorine<span> a very reactive element. A </span>valence electron<span> is an </span>electron<span> that is associated with an atom, and that can participate in the formation of a chemical bond. Hope this helps.</span>

Use Lewis diagrams to show how electrons are shared to form covalent bonds in compounds wit the following atoms. Write the formu
bixtya [17]
The Lewis structure/diagram for CH2O (aka Formaldehyde) can be written in either of the following ways shown in the picture.
The dots represent electrons in the valence shell of the atom (the outermost shell). The green dots are electrons that belong to the Oxygen atom, the blue belong to the Carbon atom, and the pink belong to the Hydrogen atoms.
Covalent bonds are bonds between atoms where atoms share electrons with each other. Atoms bond because they obey the octet rule ( the rule states that most atoms of main-group elements tend to want 8 electrons in their valence shells). 
Oxygen has 6 valence electrons, Carbon has 4, and Hydrogen has 1. H does not follow the octet rule, but C and O do, so the atoms are arranged in this way so that the O and C atoms have a full octet of electrons in their valence.

Which of the following is true of the mass of an object?
shtirl [24]

Answer:

Its mass is measured on a scale.

It is measured on a balance.

Explanation:

The mass of an object can easily be determined using a balance or weighing scale.

Mass is the amount of matter contained in a substance. it is has the same value every where and will not vary by geography or location.

Weight is the force on body due to gravity. It is a function of mass and acceleration due to gravity.

Both mass and weight are different.

They can both be measured using a weight device.
