The picture of correct answer is attached it is the second one from the left since it has 5 electrons in outermost shell so it can share 3 electrons to complete the octet rule, while first one contains only one electron in outermost shell so it easier to be lost, third one has 8 electrons so it has complete valence shell and last one with only two electrons in outermost shell so it is easier to lose these two electrons.
from 5 to 7 electrons on outermost shell can form covalent bond

With reference to He-4 (or the diagram), explain the term isotopes.
boyakko [2]

Answer:

Isotopes are basically atoms of an element that have an unequal number of neutrons and protons. Of course the proton number remains the same, but the neutron number either decreases or increases, which leads to an overall change in mass. However, no chemical properties of the atom/element are changed as the electrons are the same number and do not react. In regards to Helium 4, the original number of neutrons in Helium is 2, and protons 2 as well. We see an equal number of neutrons and protons, hence an unchanged mass, and the element is <em>not</em> an isotope.

Farmers who raise cotton once used arsenic acid, H₃AsO₄, as a defoliant at harvest time. Arsenic acid is a polyprotic acid with
Stels [109]

Explanation:

The reaction equation will be as follows.

      H_{3}AsO_{4} \rightleftharpoons H_{2}AsO^{-}_{4} + H^{+}

Hence, the expression for K_{a} is as follows.

            K_{a} = \frac{[H_{2}SO^{-}_{4}][H^{+}]}{[H_{3}AsO_{4}]}

Let us assume that the concentration of both [H_{2}AsO^{-}_{4}] and [H^{+}] is x.

           2.5 \times 10^{-4} = \frac{x \times x}{0.5}

                          x = 0.01118034

This means that the concentration of [H^{+}] is 0.01118034.

Since, we know that the relation between pH and concentration of hydrogen ions is as follows.

              pH = -log [H^{+}]

                    = -log (0.01118034)

                    = 1.958

Thus, we can conclude that the pH of a 0.500 M solution of arsenic acid is 1.958.

How long will it take a plane to go 800 miles if it’s traveling at an average speed of 650 miles per hour?
Naya [18.7K]

If there is NO wind resistance, just plain math, this is the answer.

To get the answer you would divide 800 by 650.

800/650 = 1.230769231 (exactly)

That would translate to exactly <span>1 hour 13 minutes and 50 seconds </span>

Many classic experiments have given us indirect evidence of the nature of the atom. Which of the experiments below did not give
taurus [48]

The Rutherford experiment proved the Thomson “plum-pudding” model of the atom to be essentially correct did not give the results described and is denoted as option A.

<h3>What is Thomson “plum-pudding” model?</h3>

This model was proposed by J.J Thomson in which referred an atom as a sphere of positive charge, and negatively charged electrons are embedded in it to balance the total positive charge.

This model was incorrect and the Rutherford atomic model was adopted in which he described the electrons orbits about a tiny positive nucleus.

The nucleus contains protons and neutrons instead thereby making it the correct choice.

The options include the following:

a.The Rutherford experiment proved the Thomson “plum-pudding” model of the atom to be essentially correct.

b.The Rutherford experiment was useful in determining the nuclear charge on the atom.

c.Milikan’s oil-drop experiment showed that the charge on any particle was a simple multiple of the charge on the electron.

d.The electric discharge tube proved that electrons have a negative charge
