Well, when an atom attains a stable valence electron, it means that the outer electrons are complete and so cannot attain any more electrons. For the first shell, it is complete when it has 2 electrons, the second shell is complete when it has 8 electrons, all the other shells also have a particular number when complete. Anyway, i believe the answer is HYDROGEN because when HYDROGEN combines with another atom of HYDROGEN, the outer shell is completed. This is because HYDROGEN has only 1 electron. If the two HYDROGENS, which both have 1 electron combine, they make the electrons 2, which is complete for the first shell, HYDROGEN ends in the first shell. Since the electrons become 2, the shell is at stable valence. In all the other options, this happens;
NEON- It has 10 electrons, 2 in the first shell and 8 in the second. So the the shells are already complete, so it can't bond with any thing, which is completely against the question.
RADON- Radon has 86 electrons.
HELIUM- Helium has 2 electrons, so the shell is already full, and cannot bond, so it goes against the question. The question says BY BONDING.
So the answer is definitely 4) HYDROGEN
Hope i helped. Have a nice day, by the way, i'm very sure it's hydrogen.
Atomic number refers to the proton number of the atom itself. Number of electrons in an atom (an atom that is not reacted with any other molecules / Just the atom alone), is the same as the number of protons, because each electron has 1 negative charge, and each proton 1 positive charge, where they cancel out on each other to become a neutral charge.
So, when atomic number is 6, proton number is also 6, and number of electrons will also be 6 in that atom.
Hope this helps! :)
Correct, Was that a question.
Answer:
So, you're dealing with a sample of cobalt-60. You know that cobalt-60 has a nuclear half-life of
5.30
years, and are interested in finding how many grams of the sample would remain after
1.00
year and
10.0
years, respectively.
A radioactive isotope's half-life tells you how much time is needed for an initial sample to be halved.
If you start with an initial sample
A

, then you can say that you will be left with
A

now i know the answer
Hello!
To find the amount of energy need to raise the temperature of 125 grams of water from 25.0° C to 35.0° C, we will need to use the formula: q = mcΔt.
In this formula, q is the heat absorbed, m is the mass, c is the specific heat, and Δt is the change in temperature, which is found by final temperature minus the initial temperature.
Firstly, we can find the change in temperature. We are given the initial temperature, which is 25.0° C and the final temperature, which is 35.0° C. It is found by subtract the final temperature from the initial temperature.
35.0° C - 25.0° C = 10.0° C
We are also given the specific heat and the grams of water. With that, we can substitute the given values into the equation and multiply.
q = 125 g × 4.184 J/g °C × 10.0° C
q = 523 J/°C × 10.0° C
q = 5230 J
Therefore, it will take 5230 joules (J) to raise the temperature of the water.
