C. 6 Valence electrons. Remember that the family that they are in will determine the number of valence electrons that element will have. Sulfur is in family 16 so it will have 6 Valence electrons.

If an element has an atomic number of 8 and an atomic mass number of 18, would it be an isotope? Why or why not?
hoa [83]

Answer:

It would be an isotope.

Background Information:

Isotopes are typically elements that have a different number of protons than neutrons. The atomic mass is the total number of protons and neutrons. The atomic number is the number of protons.

Explanation:

If the atomic number is the number of protons that means that this particular element has 8 protons. If the atomic mass is the total number of protons and neutrons then we can simply take away the amount of protons from that number, 18 - 8 = 10. If we take protons away from the number of protons and neutrons we are left with the number of neutrons. So there are 10 neutrons. Because there are 8 protons and 10 neutrons, or a different amount of neutrons and protons we know that this particular atom is an isotope.

Which statement about the reaction is correct?
Goshia [24]

The reactions based on the absorption and release of the energy are called endothermic and exothermic reactions. The reaction is exothermic.

<h3>What is an exothermic reaction?</h3>

Exothermic reactions are the reaction in which the reactant produces products that release energy from the system to the surroundings. In the reaction bond energy of the reactant is less than the product.

Energy from the system is released in the form of heat, sound, light and electricity. The weak bonds of the compounds are replaced with stronger ones and the standard enthalpy of the reaction is negative.

Therefore, option c. reaction is exothermic is correct.
