Answer:

Element X is Arsenic (As)

Explanation:

  • Elements in the periodic table are either metals, non-metals or metalloids.
  • Metals are elements that react by losing electrons to obtain a stable configuration and form cation.
  • Non-metals are those elements that react by gaining electrons to form a stable configuration and form anion.
  • Metalloids are elements in the periodic table that have both metallic and non-metallic properties.
  • Examples of metalloids include Selenium, Arsenic, Boron, etc.
  • Arsenic is a metalloid in period 4 (four energy levels) with five valence electrons.

Answer:

it allows us to determine whether objects will float or sink when placed in a liquid or even a gas.

Explanation:

For example, In an oil spill in the ocean, the oil rises to the top because it is less dense than water, creating an oil slick on the surface of the ocean. A Styrofoam cup is less dense than a ceramic cup, so the Styrofoam cup will float in water and the ceramic cup will sink.

larisa86 [58]

The atomic number of Fluorine is 9

Valence (outer) electron configuration is : 2s²2p⁵

Therefore, it requires 1 electron in the p-orbital to complete its octet of 8 electrons.

Thus, the atom Fluorine generally will become <u>more </u>stable through the formation of an ionic chemical compound by accepting <u>1 </u> electron from another atom. This process will fill its outer energy level.

Ans:  A) more, 1
