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

Chemistry

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.

The nucleus of unstable _____ of an element will decay leading to emission of radiation.question 1 options:moleculescationsanion
Marta_Voda [28]

Isotopes of same element has different number of neutrons with different masses and having same number of protons and electrons.

Radioactive isotopes are those isotopes which are radioactive in nature. The unstable nucleus results in the radioactivity process and this process will go on until the stable isotope (element) forms.

Thus, the nucleus of unstable isotopes of an element will decay leading to emission of radiation.

Bess [88]
Alkaline Earth Metals are the elements located in the second period from the left of the periodic table. These elements lose two electrons to form the stable octet when forming an ionic bond, resulting in a net charge of +2. Because they’re trying to get rid of those electrons to get to the stable octet, it’s easy to remove them - this means that the ionization energy of these elements is relatively low. Finally, since they’re looking to get rid of electrons, they certainly aren’t trying to gain any, meaning that their electronegativity is relatively low.

The correct answers are A and D.

What would happen to the sup- ply of ATP in your cells if you did not eat enough carbohydrates? How would this affect your cells
harina [27]

Answer:

ATP supply will reduced or decrease drastically

Explanation:

ATP will reduced because carbohydrates are energy given food. Chemical energy are in carbohydrates, therefore when the undergo digestion i.e breakdown of larger pieces into smaller pieces, it is broken down into glucose i.e energy is released. Therefore, if there is now carbohydrates, ATP supply will reduced and there won't be energy needed for different cellular metabolic activities. The breakdown of carbohydrate supply energy.
