How many electrons are needed in the outer energy levels of most atoms to be chemically stable?

Chemistry

Tatiana [17]4 years ago
3 0
Most of the elements important in biology need eight electrons in their outermost shell in order to be stable, and this rule of thumb is known as the octet rule. Some atoms can be stable with an octet even though their valence shell is the 3n shell, which can hold up to 18 electrons.

How many molecules in 4.10 mol H2O?
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

2,47 * 10^{24} (molecules)

Explanation:

Avogadro's number is a very important relationship: 1 mole = 6,02 * 10^{23} atoms, molecules, protons, etc.

To convert from moles to molecules, multiply the molar amount by Avogadro's number.

4,1 mol * 6,02 * 10^{23}  ≈ 24,7 * 10^{23} = 2,47 * 10^{24} (molecules)

Therefore the third answer is correct

A scientist is combining two grey elements he thinks he will get a compound why is this prediction wrong
DedPeter [7]
In a compund, the proportion must be fixed, unlike mixture. Therefore, if he just combine two elements, there must be excess elements mixed in it.
Second, how did he combined two elements? In order to create a compund, either heat or electricity must be applied.
Therefore, even if he used heat / electricity, he still hasn't got the right proportion, therefore he must have mixed some excess elements into the compund that he thought he made.

A 20.00 g mixture of magnesium and zinc metal reacting with excess hydrochloric acid produced 1.152 g of hydrogen gas. what is t
mafiozo [28]

percentage of zinc= 5.985/20 X 100= 29.5%

let x represents zinc and y be magnesium so

Zinc(s) + 2HCl(aq) -----> ZnCl2(aq) +  H2(g)

Mg(s) + 2HCl(aq) -----> MgCl2(aq) + H2(g)

1.152 g of hydrogen gas=( x/65.3 + y/24.305) 20

= 3.08 x10^-2 + 0.8295-8.30

=x=5.985

y= 4.015

percentage of zinc= 5.985/20 X 100= 29.5%

The hydrogen gas escapes, so the two products of Zinc Chloride and Magnesium Chloride will then react with Silver Nitrate. Again, I combine both of the reactions
