Neon is inert because its outermost shell is complete. Neon is already in noble gas configuration and it will be very difficult to change this, essentially making it inert.

Nitrogen is inert because its outermost shell has eight electrons. Nitrogen's outermost shell only has 3 electrons so it is generally unstable and wants to gain 3 more to be in noble gas configuration.

Oxygen is more reactive than fluorine because oxygen needs only one electron to fill its outermost shell. This is just completely false, Fluorine is the most reaction element there is.

Fluorine is more reactive than neon because fluorine has to lose only one electron to fill its outermost shell. Although fluorine is more reactive, this is because it only needs to GAIN one more electron, not lose one more.

Which type of bonding is characterized by overlapping orbitals that allow outer electrons of atoms to move about freely througho
Sonja [21]

Answer:

D metallic

Explanation:

The chemical bonding which rises from electrostatic attractive force between the conduction electrons and the positively charged metal ions is called metallic bonding.

<u>It is sharing of the free electrons among the structure of the positively charged ions which are known as cations. </u>

<u>In this type of bonding, these free electrons freely move in the crystal mattice of the metal.  </u>

The bonding accounts for properties of metals, such as ductility, strength,  electrical and thermal conductivity and resistivity and luster.

23. Using the periodic table, what is the oxidation number of:
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

a. +2

b. +3

c. -1

Explanation:

The typical oxidation states can be determined from the periodic table based on the number of valence electrons an atom has.

a. Calcium belongs to group 2A, meaning it has 2 valence electrons and, therefore, would have an oxidation state of +2 in compounds.

b. Aluminum is in group 3A, meaning it has 3 valence electrons and would have an oxidation state of +3 in compounds when the 3 electrons are lost.

c. Fluorine would become fluorine if it gained 1 additional electron to achieve an octet, so its oxidation state would be -1.
