Let us calculate the structure of the electric shells of the Al atom. It has an atomic number of 13, so it has 13 electrons. The first 2 go to the first hell. The next 8 need to go to the second shell and the last 3 ones would go to the outermost shell. The outer shell, that is the most important one for chemical reactions, has thus 3 electrons. An atom always tries to have a completed outer shell (with either 2 or 8 atoms). It is easier for a cell to have a charge of +3 than a charge of -5 (smaller absolute value) and thus the Aluminum atom will try to get rid of the 3 electrons. In this process, it loses negative charge thus it will become positively charged. Hence, the correct answer is that it will prefer to lose 3 electrons and become positively charged.
The chemical equation is:
CH₄ + 2O₂ → CO₂ + 2H₂O
First, we calculate the moles of methane present using:
Moles = mass / molecular mass
Moles = 20 / 16
Moles = 1.25
Next, we may observe from the chemical equation that the molar ratio between methane and oxygen is 1 : 2
So the moles of oxygen required are 2 x 1.25
2.5 moles of oxygen required
Mass = moles * molecular mass
Mass = 2.5 * 32
Moles = 80
C. 80 grams O₂
<span>Chromium is a transition metal and it has 24 electrons and here is the orbital diagram. If we're going to make this short hand and make the electron configurationfor this we would make this 1s2, 2s2, 2p6, 3s2, 3p6, 4s2, 3d4 okay from now on every time you see 3d4 you're going to change it, we do not like 3d4.</span>
Valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost shell of an element on the periodic table. Atoms want to be able to have a full outer shell and they can share or trade electrons in order to achieve this. Valence electrons are also super super important in chemical reactions. The number of valence electrons determines what group that specific atom or element is in on the periodic table. This affects the reactivity of the element.
