What are valence electrons (be specific)?

Chemistry

Helen [10]3 years ago
5 0
In chemistry, a valence electron is an outer shell electron that is associated with an atom, and that can participate in the formation of a chemical bond if the outer shell is not closed; in a single covalent bond, both atoms in the bond contribute one valence electron in order to form a shared pair.

Valence electrons are the electrons present in the outermost shell of an atom. You can easily determine the number of valence electrons an atom can have by looking at its Group in the periodic table. ... Atoms in Groups 13 and 18 have 3 and 8 valence electrons, respectively.

Why is the outermost shell of an atom significant?
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

The number of electrons in the outermost shell of a particular atom determines its reactivity, or tendency to form chemical bonds with other atoms. This outermost shell is known as the valence shell, and the electrons found in it are called valence electrons

The energy transferred between samples of matter because of a difference in their temperatures is called a. heat. b. thermochemi
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

The energy transferred between samples of matter because of a difference in their temperatures is called a. heat.

Explanation:

The first law of thermodynamics establishes that when two bodies with different temperatures are put in contact they will find thermic equilibrium to a final temperature by transferring heat. Thus the correct answer is (a).

Thermochemistry is the study of the transformations of heat energy on the chemical reactions. Chemical kinetics is the study of the rate of chemical reactions. And temperature is the measure of the heat.

Which state of matter is Na OH(s)​
Shalnov [3]

Explanation:

SOLID

Sodium hydroxide exists in the solid phase at room temperature. You would find it in the lab as hemispherical white solid pellets. The phase of a substance depends on temperature and pressure. As you heat a solid, it will melt and change to the liquid phase.
