An element is a substance made entirely from one type of atom. For example, the element hydrogen is made from atoms containing a single proton and a single electron.

Since water can be prepared in the laboratory
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

# In a familiar high-school chemistry demonstration, an instructor first uses electricity to split water into its constituent gases, Hydrogen and Oxygen. Then, by combining the two gases and igniting them with a spark, the instructor changes the gases back into water with a loud pop (That means the energy is released in the process).

# There are new other ways to produce water in laboratory, however, the scientists can not produce water in large quantity for the masses, because of some reasons.

1- Theoretically, this is possible, but it would be an extremely dangerous process. Since Hydrogen is extremely flammable and Oxygen supports combustion, it wouldn’t take much to create this force, but we also have an explosion. That’s why this process can be a deadly one if our experiment is big enough.

2- Personally, I think that it makes no sense to produce water in a laboratory ( or in a large plant) for people to use as daily water. The much more important thing we need to do is to save our environment, our planet Earth. Because the daily water people drink contains not just water molecules but other minerals, the marine life is depend not just in water molecules but diferent factors, etc.

This is just my personal opinion. Hope that can help you a little. Have a nice day

Consider these elements: N, Mg, O, F, Al. a. Write the electron configuration for each element. b. Arrange the elements in order
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

N- 1s2 2s2 2p3

Mg- 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2

O- 1s2 2s2 2p4

F- 1s2 2s2 2p5

Al-1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p1

Explanation:

Order of decreasing atomic radius

Mg,Al, N,O,F

Order of increasing ionization energy

Mg,Al, N,O,F

Reason:

Atomic radius decreases with increase in nonmetallic character. Looking at the electronic configurations, as effective nuclear charge increases, the atom becomes smaller and the attractive force between the nucleus and the outermost electrons increases. Hence, the radius of the atom decreases and ionization energy increases. Note that the addition of more orbital electrons implies addition of more nuclear charge since the both must exactly balance for the atom to remain electrically neutral. The more the electrons in the outermost shell, the higher the first ionization energy.
