Answer:

Z

Explanation:

Each shell can contain only a fixed number of electrons: The first shell can hold up to two electrons, the second shell can hold up to eight (2 + 6) electrons, the third shell can hold up to 18 (2 + 6 + 10) and so on.

Answer:

Phosphorus

Explanation:

Phosphorus has 15 total electrons. Its first shell can hold 2 electrons. Its second shell can hold 8 electrons. The remaining 5 electrons are in its third shell (the third shell can hold up to 18 electrons).

2 electrons (1st shell) + 8 electrons (2nd shell) + 5 electrons (3rd shell) = 15 total electrons (the number of electrons P has).

How many molecules of h2o are equal to 97.2 g h2o
Eduardwww [97]
M(H₂O) = 97,2 g.
n(H₂O) = m(H₂O) ÷ M(H₂O).
n(H₂O) = 97,2 g ÷ 18 g/mol.
n(H₂O) = 5,4 mol.
N(H₂O) = n(H₂O) · Na.
N(H₂O) = 5,4 mol · 6,023·10²³ 1/mol.
N(H₂O) = 3,25·10²⁴ molecules of water.
n - amount of substance.
Na - Avogadro number.

VikaD [51]

Answer:

The answer is 1722 e⁻

Explanation:

Let's make a rule of three:

9.708×10⁻³¹ kg is the mass of 1 e⁻

1.672 ×10⁻²⁷ kg (which is 1 p⁺), how many e⁻ does it contain.?

1.672 ×10⁻²⁷ kg / 9.708×10⁻³¹ kg

The answer is 1722 e⁻
