How many valence electrons are there in sulfur, and iodine.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Vinil7 [7]3 years ago
7 0

Today I will explain what a valence electron is and how many valence electrons each of the atoms your asking about have. :)

→ A valence electron is an electron in the outer shell of an atom that is able to participate in bonding. While iodine has 53 electrons, all but seven are in the inner shells of the iodine atom.

→ Sulfur has sixteen electrons in total, two in the inner shell, eight in the middle, and six in the outer. This means that sulfur has six valence electrons.

Imagine that instead of balls, you were rolling positively charged ions of the same element).
Ghella [55]
The ion with a +3 charge would be deflected the most by the magnet because it has the strongest positive charge therefore it will be the one being the most repelled. and the ion that would be deflected the least would be the ion with a +1 charge because it has the least amount of charge so the magnet will still repel it but just not as much as it will repel the ion with a +3 charge.

hope that helps

Given the formula representing a compound: what is a chemical name of this compound? 2-pentene 2-pentyne 3-pentene 3-pentyne
Aleks [24]
The question is incomplete. Complete question is attached below.
..........................................................................................................................

Correct Answer: <em>Option 1) 2-pentene</em>

Reason:
Following are the IUPAC rules for naming the compound
1) Select the longest carbon chain. In present case longest carbon chain has 5 carbon atom. Hence, it is a pentane derivative.
2) In case of alkene, replace 'e' of alkane by 'ene'
3) Give lowest number to function group. In present case, it is double bond.

Applying above rules, the IUPAC name of compound is 2-pentene

What is the acceleration of an object that goes from 3 m/s to 5 m/s in 8 s?
nikdorinn [45]

Answer: 0.25m/s2

Explanation:

Acceleration is change in velocity with time

V = final velocity = 5m/s

U =Initial velocity = 3m/s

t = time = 8s

a = Acceleration =?

a = V — U / t

a = (5 — 3) / 8

a = 2/8

a = 0.25m/s2

scandium47 has a half-life of 35s. suppose you have a 45g sample of scadium 47 how much of the sample remains unchanged after 14
Mars2501 [29]

 The much  of the sample that would remain  unchanged  after 140 seconds is 2.813 g

Explanation

Half life  is time taken for the quantity  to reduce  to half its original value.

if the half life  for Scandium  is 35 sec, then the number  of half life in 140 seconds

=140 sec/ 35 s = 4 half life

Therefore 45 g after first half life = 45 x1/2 =22.5 g

               22.5 g after second half life = 22.5 x 1/2 =11.25 g

            11.25 g after third half life = 11.25 x 1/2 = 5.625 g

             5.625 after  fourth half life = 5.625 x 1/2 = 2.813

therefore 2.813 g  of Scandium 47 remains  unchanged.
