Actually Welcome to the concept of Atomic Structure.
Since, We all know that, To draw any Electron-Dot Structure, we always have to know the exact Number of valence or free electrons of any atom or molecule, hence
The Correct Answer is :-
D. Number of valence electrons.
Answer:
discoveries that can change little aspects of our daily lives or finding cures for diseases that have hounded humanity, scientists have been hard at work trying to push us toward a brighter future.
Explanation:
thats what i got from my research :D
In a chemical reaction, the products should always be equal to the reactants (in this case you would answer “the same as the reactants”) since we can neither create nor destroy matter (law of conservation!)
Hope this helps! :)
Oxidation state is a number that is assigned to an element in a chemical combination. The number represents the number of electrons that an atom can gain, loses, or share when chemically bonding with an atom of another element. In this case the oxidation state or the oxidation number of Ca(NO3)2 is Zero, since its an electrically neutral compound. Thus the sum of oxidation number of calcium, nitrogen and oxygen is zero.
