Answer : Valence electrons in atom A = 1, B = 6 and C = 2.

Explanation :

Valence electrons means the outermost electrons are the ones which involved in bonding. Electrons are arranged in energy levels or shells.

Valence electrons are found in the highest energy orbitals of an element.

  • The electronic configuration of (Na) is 1s^22s^22p^63s^1. The highest energy orbital is 3s orbital which contains 1 electron. So,

        The number of valence electrons in (Na) = A = 1

Similarly,

  • The electronic configuration of (O) is 1s^22s^22p^4. The highest energy orbital are 2s and 2p orbitals which contains (2 + 4) = 6 electrons. So,

       The number of valence electrons in (O) = B = 6

  • The electronic configuration of (Fe) is 1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d^6. The highest energy orbital is 4s orbital which contains 2 electrons. So,

       The number of valence electrons in (Fe) = C = 2

What is the molarity of a solution made by mixing 2.80 g of koh with enough water make 750 ml of solution?
Travka [436]
<span>Molarity is expressed as the number of moles of solute per volume of the solution. We calculate as follows:

2.80 g ( 1 mol / 56.11 g ) = 0.05 mol KOH

Molarity = 0.05 mol KOH / 750 mL ( 1 L / 1000 mL )
Molarity = 0.07 M

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>

Consider the balanced equation below. 4nh3 3o2 right arrow. 2n2 6h2o what is the mole ratio of nh3 to n2? 2:4 4:2 4:4 7:2
KIM [24]

The required mole ratio of  NH₃ to N₂ in the given chemical reaction is 2:4.

<h3>What is the stoichiometry?</h3>

Stoichiometry of the reaction gives idea about the number of entities present on the reaction before and after the reaction.

Given chemical reaction is:

4NH₃ + 3O₂ → 2N₂ + 6H₂O

From the stoichiometry of the reaction it is clear that:

4 moles of NH₃ = produces 2 moles of N₂

Mole ratio NH₃ to N₂ is 2:4.

Hence required mole ratio is 2:4.
