Answer:
[He]2s2 2p
Explanation:
group 16 elements, also known as the chalcogens have 6 valence electrons, and hence they can achieve noble gas configuration either by gaining 2 electrons or by sharing two electrons i.e., by forming M2- ions, or forming two covalent bonds. The oxidation state of elements is defined as the number of electrons gained or lost to form a bond and its sign is the indication of ionic charge on the element. Oxygen is the most electronegative element after fluorine. The difference in electronegativity between metals and oxygen is generally very high. We know that ionic bond is formed when the difference in electronegativity of any two elements is very high. Thus, metals and oxygen combine to form a metal oxide with oxygen attaining O2- form, so the oxidation state of oxygen is mostly (-II).
Answer:
The question isn't worded properly, but if 1 or 2 are DECREASED, the frequency of collisions of specified molecules will decrease.
Explanation:
Catalysts only facilitate reaction once molecules collide. Increased temperature makes molecules move more, and thus collide more. For concentration, if there are more molecules in the same amount of room/liquid, there will be more collisions because there are more of the molecules to collide.
a resource that cannot be replenished in a short period of time
Yes. it was less clay which causes less area for impact
