dict to be closest to

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Elements in the same group (vertical columns) have the same number of valence electrons. These elements behave similarly because they will either give up or take the same number of electrons to fill their valence shell. Since potassium has 1 valence electron, it will most likely give up one electron. Out of all of the answer options, the only element that is in the same group as potassium is francium.

The ion n3− has _____ protons and _____ electrons.enter your answers as integers separated by a comma.
bearhunter [10]
The ion N³⁻ is called the azide ion. In its neutral state, it occurs as the element Nitrogen. The atomic number of Nitrogen is 7. When it turns into an anion (negatively charged ion), it gains 3 more electrons. That's why its net charge becomes -3. It means that the protons is still 7, but the electrons are now 10. 

Overall charge = +7 + -10 = -3

Which postmortem parameter reaches a maximum at 12 hours and is gone within 36 to 48 hours?1.rigor mortis2.cloudiness of the eye
Olenka [21]
The cloudiness of the eyes increases to a maximum and then decreases. This is because initially, after death, all the muscles relax, dilating the pupil. Some time later, rigor mortis sets in, contracting the pupil. Thus, the cloudiness fades.

Where does the equilibrium point occur in a reaction system?
Ymorist [56]
Equilibrium occurs when the rate of the forward reaction is the same as the rate of the reverse reaction. This doesn't necessarily mean the concentrations or pressure are the same on both sides of the equation, only the rates are the same

Select the keyword or phrase that will best complete each sentence. A tetrahedral carbon is____hybridized while a linear carbon
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

Explanation:

A tetrahedral carbon is__sp³__hybridized while a linear carbon is__sp___hybridized. Two different compounds that have the same molecular formula are known as___isomers____. Pi (π) bonds are generally_weaker (because they overlapped side ways)___than sigma (sigma) bonds. Hybridization is the combination of two or more__atomic ____orbitals to form the same number of__hybrid (combined  s and p)__orbitals, each having the same shape and energy. A_pi (π)____bond is formed by side-by-side overlap of two p orbitals. The_electronegativity___is a measure of an atom's attraction for electrons in a bond and indicates how much a particular atom ''wants" electrons. Two Lewis structures that have the same atomic placement and a structure but a different arrangement of pi electrons are called_Resonance structure____. All single bonds are___sigma__bonds.
