Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Valence shell is the shell present on the outermost core of an atom and electrons present in the valence shell are known as valence electrons.

If an atom has completely filled valence shell then it means the atom is not reactive in nature because it is already stable.

But when an atom has less than eight electrons in its valence shell then it means to attain stability the atom will readily attract electrons towards itself.

As the given element 1 has 8 electrons in its valence shell. Hence, it is not reactive in nature but element 2 has 6 valence electrons. So, in order to attain stability element 2 will readily attract 2 electrons from a donor atom.

Thus, we can conclude that element 2 is more reactive because it does not have a full valence shell, so it will attract electrons.

Raising the temperature of 10.0 g of water from 10.0 °C to 20.0 °C requires 100.0 cal of energy, while raising the temperature o
djyliett [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The change in enthalpy of a substance when heated is given by

ΔH = m x Csp x ΔT

so the enthalpy change is dependent on the specific heat , i.e its capactity to absorb heat, and is not influenced by factors such as being closer to the melting point, volume , potential energy or being a solid or liquid.
