How many electrons does carbon lack in its outer shell? biochemistry

Chemistry
1 answer:
tekilochka [14]3 years ago
7 0
A neutral carbon doesn't lack any electrons. It has exactly the same number of electrons as it has neutrons.
However, it has four electrons in its outer shell in comparison with eight electrons for a noble gas.
In that sense, it needs four electrons to complete its second shell.<span />

If a block has the mass of 15.00 grams and measurements of 5.00cm by 3.00cm by 2.00cm what is the volume of the block?
Natalija [7]

Answer:

Volume = 30cm³

Explanation:

A block is a geometrical figure and its volume, -look at the figure-, follows the equation:

Volume = Width*Length*Height

As the measurements of the block are 5.00cm, 3.00cm and 2.00cm, the volume is:

Volume = 5.00cm*2.00cm*3.00cm

<h3>Volume = 30cm³</h3>

How much of 45 grams of pu 234 remains after 27 hours if it’s half life is 4.98 hours
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

1.07 g

Explanation:

Half-life of Pu-234 = 4.98 hours

Initially present = 45 g

mass remains after 27 hours = ?

Solution:

Formula

         mass remains = 1/ 2ⁿ (original mass) ……… (1)

Where “n” is the number of half lives

To find "n" for 27 hours

                          n = time passed / half-life . . . . . . . .(2)

put values in equation 2

                          n = 27 hr / 4.98 hr

                          n = 5.4

Mass after 27 hr

Put values in equation 1

          mass remains = 1/ 2ⁿ (original mass)

          mass remains = 1/ 2^5.4 (45 g)

          mass remains = 1/ 42.2 (45 g)

          mass remains =  0.0237 x 45 g

          mass remains =  1.07 g
