Copper has 29 electrons, and its electron configuration is:
1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 3d10 4s1.
Therefore, copper has 1 valence electron.
Hope this helps~
Answer:
B) Conduction requires two objects to be in physical contact.
Explanation:
Conduction is when two objects are directly touching each other. So, the objects must come in physical contact with each other.
Answer:
Monatomic molecule
Explanation:
Each helium atom has 2 electrons, which is already the maximum no. of electrons that can fit in the first electron shell. When the outermost electron shell is full (2 for the first layer, 8 for others), the atom is stable.
Helium atom itself is already stable, so it doesn't need to combine with another helium atom to form a molecule, hence we call it monatomic.
The answer to the question is D.
Silicon, it's bring brother would be the prime candidate, although its compounds are notably different from those of carbon.
