The question is incomplete, the complete question is;
The Lewis representation above depicts a reaction between hydrogen (blue) and a main-group element from group______ (red).
In this representation, each Y atom needs ______ electron(s) to complete its octet, and gains these electrons by forming______ bond(s) with atoms of H .
There are ______ unshared electron pair(s) and _______bonding electron pair(s) in the product molecule.
The bonds in the product are _________ (Ionic or Covalent)
Answer:
1) 16
2) 2 electrons
3) 2 bonds
4) 2 unshared pairs of electrons
5) 2 bonding pairs of electrons
6) The bonds in the product are covalent
Explanation:
Group sixteen elements have six electrons on their outermost shell. These include two unshared pairs of electrons and two unpaired electrons. These two unpaired electrons can now be covalently bonded to two hydrogen atoms to give H2Y. The compound H2Y has two lone pairs and two bond pairs of electrons.
H2Y can be a general formula for all hydrides of group 16. They are all very similar in structure but gradually differ in physical and chemical properties according to the graduated variation observed down the group.
Answer:
pH reducing agent for acidic soils
Explanation:
Gypsum is not used to reduce soil pH because it will displace the soil H+ but there's no means of extracting the H from the soil. So the pH of the soil remains the same.
Out of the options, the best indicator is a color change since it is the only one that can't really be blamed on a physical change. you will eventually notice that during qualitative labs and some quantitative labs, usually the thing that you are looking for is either color change or the production of a precipitate to indicate the presence of a chemical reaction
Answer : Colloid
Explanation : Any colloid which consist of a solid evenly dispersed in a gas phase can be called as smoke. So, if smoke has to be given a matter of substance then it is can be categorized as a Colloid present in gaseous phase. Smoke is a solid which contains minute particles of dust which is homogeneously dispersed in the air.
