Correct answer: has a completely filled outermost shell

Atoms of the element with complete outermost shells are stable. So, in order to attain stability the atom either loses electrons or gains electrons to completely fill the outermost shell. The stable electronic configuration for the s and p-block elements is exhibited by the noble gases or the group 8 elements. All the unstable atoms try to attain the electronic configuration of the nearest noble gas with completely filled outermost shell.

What elements can join wit other elements o form a covalent bond
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Non metals join to form covalent bond.

Explanation:

Covalent bond:

It is formed by the sharing of electron pair between bonded atoms.  

The atom with larger electronegativity attract the electron pair more towards it self and becomes partial negative while the other atom becomes partial positive.

For example:

In water the electronegativity of oxygen is 3.44 and hydrogen is 2.2. That's why electron pair attracted more towards oxygen, thus oxygen becomes partial negative and hydrogen becomes partial positive.

Both atoms bonded through covalent bond.

In Cl₂ both chlorine atoms are bonded through the covalent bond.

A space air is at a temperature of 75 oF, and the relative humidity (RH) is 45%. Using calculations, find: (a) the partial press
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

A) Partial Pressure of dry air = 13.32 KPa

Partial Pressure of water vapour = 1.332 KPa

B) Humidity ratio; X = 0.0691

C) V_p = 0.8384 m³/Kg

Explanation:

A) We are given;

Temperature = 75°F

Relative Humidity = 45%

Now,to calculate the partial pressure, we will use the relationship;

Relative Humidity = (Partial Pressure/Vapour Pressure) × 100%

Making partial pressure the subject;

Partial Pressure = Relative Humidity × Vapour Pressure/100%

From the first table attached, at temperature of 75°F, the vapor pressure is 29.6 × 10^(-3) bar = 29.6 KPa

Thus;

Partial Pressure of dry air = (45 × 29.6)/100

Partial Pressure of dry air = 13.32 KPa

From online values, vapour pressure of water vapour at 75°F = 2.96 KPa

Thus;

Partial Pressure of water vapour = (45 × 2.96)/100 = 1.332 KPa

B) humidity ratio of moist air is given as;

X = 0.62198 pw / (pa - pw)  

where;

pw = partial pressure of the water vapor in moist air

pa = atmospheric pressure of the moist air

Thus;

X = (0.62198 × 1.332)/(13.32 - 1.332)  

X = 0.0691

C) Formula for moist air specific volume is;

V_p = (1 + (xRw/Ra) × RaT/p

Where;

V_p is specific volume

T is temperature = 75°F = 297.039 K

p is barometric pressure which in this case is standard sea level pressure = 101.325 KPa

pw is partial pressure of the water vapor in moist air = 1.332 KPa

Rw is individual gas constant for water = 0.4614 KJ/Kg.K

Ra is individual gas constant for air = 0.2869 KJ/Kg.K

V_p = (1 + (0.0691 * 0.4614/0.2869)) × 0.286.9 * 297.039/101.325

V_p = 0.8384 m³/Kg
