Hello!

From the list you gave, Mg (Magnesium) is the element that has two valence electrons

Why?

The valence electrons are the electrons that are found in the outer shell of the atom. That is, the shell with the highest "n" number.

From the list, the electron configuration of the atoms is:

  • Na: [Ne] 3s¹. 1 Valence Electron.
  • Mg: [Ne] 3s². 2 Valence Electrons.
  • Al: [Ne] 3s² 3p¹. 3 Valence Electrons.
  • S: [Ne] 3s² 3p⁴. 6 Valence Electrons.

The atom that has Two Valence Electrons from the list is Magnesium (Mg)

Have a nice day!

Arada [10]

When a compound containing C, H and O is completely combusted in air what reactant besides the hydrocarbon is involved in the reaction is Oxygen.

<h3>What is hydrocarbon?</h3>

A hydrocarbon is an organic molecule composed completely of hydrogen and carbon in organic chemistry. Group 14 hydrides include hydrocarbons. Hydrocarbons are often colourless and hydrophobic, with scents that are weak or exemplified by gasoline and lighter fluid. They exist in a wide range of molecular forms and phases, including gases (like methane and propane), liquids (like hexane and benzene), low melting solids (like paraffin wax and naphthalene), and polymers (such as polyethylene and polystyrene). Hydrocarbon refers to naturally occurring petroleum, natural gas, and coal, as well as their hydrocarbon derivatives and refined forms, in the fossil fuel industry. The primary source of energy on the planet is the combustion of hydrocarbons.

How can I make equilibrium shift to the right in a reversible reaction?
labwork [276]

Answer:

According to Le Chatelier's principle, adding additional reactant to a system will shift the equilibrium to the right, towards the side of the products. By the same logic, reducing the concentration of any product will also shift equilibrium to the right.

Imagine that you have an ideal gas in a 6.70 L container, and that 1450 molecules of this gas collide with a square-inch area of
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

they could collide 241.66 molec / in² by increasing the volume to 40.2L

Explanation:

ideal gas:

<u>Boyle Law</u>: at constant temperature the pressure of a gas varies inversely with the volume

  • V1 * P1 = V2 * P2
  • P = F / A

∴ V1 = 6.70 L;

∴ P1 = 1450 molec / in²

∴ V2 = 40.2 L

⇒ P2 = (( 6.70 L ) * ( 1450 molec/in²)) / 40.2 L

⇒ P2 = 241.66 molec/in²

How are prefixes used to name compounds
Dennis_Churaev [7]

However, simple covalent compounds are generally named by using prefixes to indicate how many atoms of each element are shown in the formula. Also, the ending of the last (most negative) element is changed to -ide. The prefixes used are mono-, di-, tri-, tetra-, penta-, hexa-, and so forth.
