The fourth (last) one in 2-8-8-2.
Answer:
When the two atoms move towards each other a compound is formed by sharing electron pairs supplied by each of the atoms to enable them have the stable 8 (octet) valency electrons in their outermost shell
Explanation:
The electronic configuration of the given element can be written as follows;
1s²2s²2p⁴
The given electronic configuration is equivalent to that of oxygen, therefore, we have;
The number of electrons in the valence shell = 2 + 4 = 6 electrons
Therefore, each atom requires 2 electrons to complete its 8 (octet) electrons in the outermost shell
When the two atoms move towards each other, they react and combine to form a compound by sharing 4 electrons, 2 from each atom, such that each atom can have an extra 2 electrons in its outermost orbit in the newly formed compound and the stable octet configuration is attained by each of the atoms in the newly formed compound.
Answer:
1. A. The plant leans toward window.
Explanation:
Plants need light to perform photosynthesis and live. Therefore, this means the plant will always lean toward light in order to survive.

Answer:
58.0 g of MgO
Explanation:
in a perfect world, 70 g, however we don't live in a perfect world
The equation of reaction
2Mg + O₂ --> 2MgO
first find which element is limiting:
35 g x 1 mol/24.3 g of Mg x 2 mol of MgO/ 2 mole of Mg = 1.44 moles of MgO
35 g x 1 mol/32g of Mg x 2 mol of MgO/ 1 mole of O₂ = 2.1875 moles of MgO
This means Mg is the limiting factor, so you will be using this moles to find grams of MgO
1.44 mols of MgO x 40.3 g of MgO/ 1 mol = 58.0 g of MgO
Answer: scientific explanation
Explanation:
A really good scientific explanation should do two main things: It should explain all the observations and data we have. It should allow us to make testable predictions that we can check using future experiments.
