Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Valence shell is the shell present on the outermost core of an atom and electrons present in the valence shell are known as valence electrons.
If an atom has completely filled valence shell then it means the atom is not reactive in nature because it is already stable.
But when an atom has less than eight electrons in its valence shell then it means to attain stability the atom will readily attract electrons towards itself.
As the given element 1 has 8 electrons in its valence shell. Hence, it is not reactive in nature but element 2 has 6 valence electrons. So, in order to attain stability element 2 will readily attract 2 electrons from a donor atom.
Thus, we can conclude that element 2 is more reactive because it does not have a full valence shell, so it will attract electrons.
Answer:
The partial pressure of chlorine gas in the mixture is 1.55 atm.
Explanation:
Partial pressure of oxygen gas = 
Partial pressure of nitrogen gas = 
Partial pressure of chlorine gas = 
Total pressure of the mixture of gases = P = 3.30 atm
Using Dalton's law of partial pressure:
The partial pressure of chlorine gas in the mixture is 1.55 atm.
The type of reaction that is Mg +S→ MgS is a synthesis reaction
<u><em>Explanation</em></u>
Synthesis reaction as refers to as direct combination is a reaction in which two or more chemical species combine to form more complex product.
The reaction of Mg +S → MgS is a synthesis reaction because;
Mg combine with S to form a more complex product MgS
Answer:
The correct answer is: D. Air masses are created by patterns of heating and cooling of the Earth's surface.
Explanation:
The air masses can be simply be divided into warm and cold ones, further they can be moist or not. The formation of the air masses, be it warm and cold, over the land masses is because of patterns of heating and cooling. This results some areas to produce very large air masses that are cold and dry, like Siberia, or warm and dry large air masses, like Sahara. Also, on a local level there's air masses that develop every day and night, which is noticeable during the night and the morning, where the colder air masses from the mountains move down to the valleys, and the warm air masses from the valleys move up to the mountains. That is a because of the change in the heating and cooling patters that differ during the day and the night.
