The valence electrons are determined by the column that the element falls in.
Column 1 has 1 valence electron
Column 2 has 2 valence electrons
Column 13 has 3 valence electrons
Column 15 has 5 valence electrons
column 16 has 6 valence electrons
column 17 has 7 valence electrons
Elements are trying to become stable by filling the outer energy level. Columns 1,2,3 do this by losing 1,2 or 3 electrons and becoming positive ions. +1, +2, +3, respectively
Columns 15, 16, 17 do this by taking those electrons and becoming negative ions. -3, -2, -3. respectively.
Answer:
Here's what I get.
Explanation:
1. Write the chemical equation

Assume that we start with 4 L of HCl
2. Calculate the theoretical volume of oxygen

3. Add 35% excess

4. Calculate the theoretical volume of nitrogen

4. Calculate volumes of reactant used up
Only 85 % of the HCl is converted.
We can summarize the volumes in an ICE table
4HCl + O₂ + N₂ → 2Cl₂ + 2H₂O
I/L: 4 1.35 5.08 0 0
C/L: -0.85(4) -0.85(1) 0 +0.85(2) +0.85(2)
E/L: 0.60 0.50 5.08 1.70 1.70
5. Calculate the mole fractions of each gas in the product stream
Total volume = (0.60 + 0.50 + 5.08 + 1.70 + 1.70) L = 9.58 L

69. The student's skin was obviously warmer than the initial temperature of the bracelet. According to the second law of thermodynamics, heat transfers from a higher temperature to a lower temperature hence heat transfers from the student's skin to the bracelet warming up the bracelet.
70. moles of copper=mass of copper/molar mass of copper
=30.1g/(63.55g/mol)= 0.4736 moles Cu
71. Delta H( heat released) = mCp(deltaT) = 30.1g(0.385 J/gK)(33-19)K = 162.23J
72. Copper is chemically less active than iron.
