Answer:

The correct answer is barium.

Explanation:

Valence electrons are the electrons present in the valence shell of an atom of an element.

Bismuth has atomic number of 83.

[Bi]=[Xe]6s^26p^3

Number of valence electron = 5

Boron has atomic number of 5.

[B]=[He]2s^22p^1

Number of valence electron = 3

Barium has atomic number of 56.

[Ba]=[Xe]6s^2

Number of valence electron = 2

Bromine has atomic number of 35.

[Br]=[Ar]4s^24p^5

Number of valence electron = 7

Barium is one of the element in the given options which possesses fewest number of valence electrons

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

0.23

Explanation:

  • It is known that, the mass to mass ratio of the salt to water

= (mass of salt / mass of water)

= (25.0 g / 105.0 g)

= 0.23

  • So, the answer is 0.23

What would be the mass in grams of 1.204 x 1024 molecules of sulfur dioxide
melomori [17]

Answer:

mass of sulfur = 96 g

Explanation:

no of moles of sulfur dioxide in 1.204\times 10^{24} molecules = \frac{1.204\times 10^{24}}{avagadro number }= \frac{1.204\times 10^{24}}{6.023\times 10^{23}}

                                       = 2 moles

therefore mass of sulfur dioxide = moles×atomic number

                                                      =2×(16+32)

                                                      =96
