The atoms of Group 7A elements gain electrons when they form ions. True False

Chemistry

Answer: True.

Explanation.

The group 7A is actually named group 17.

That group is the halogens: F, Cl, Br, I, At, and Ts (Ts is one of the last elements discovered).

Those elements have 7 valence electrons (notice that it is the same number as the second digit in 17).

The atoms with 7 valence electrons will "easily" gain one electron to get the configuration of the next noble gas (8 valence electrons). That is why these elements gain electrons to form ions.

When atoms gain electrons form anions (negative ions). For example: F(-), Cl(-), Br(-), I(-).

How many electrons may be accommodated in the first three energy levels?
viktelen [127]
Each shell can contain only a fixed number of electrons: The first shell can hold up to two electrons, the second shell can hold up to eight (2 + 6) electrons, the third shell can hold up to 18 (2 + 6 + 10) and so on. Some points will be nice

Anybody Understand this question please help me !
zlopas [31]

Answer:

m_{Sn}=630.57gSn

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, according to the chemical reaction:

SnO_2+2H_2\rightarrow Sn+2H_2O

We can evidence the 2:1 mole ratio between hydrogen and tin, thus, we perform the following stoichiometric setup to obtain the mass of produced tin:

m_{Sn}=21.46gH_2*\frac{1molH_2}{2.02gH_2}*\frac{1molSn}{2molH_2} *\frac{118.71gSn}{1molSn} \\\\m_{Sn}=630.57gSn

Best regards!

What two pieces of information does the ATOMIC NUMBER give you?*
DiKsa [7]

Answer: Identifies the number of protons a single atom of the element contains.

Explanation: The atomic number helps people identify elements according to the number of protons one atom of the element has. It essentially defines the element. While having a neutral charge, it also provides the number of electrons the element has (in one atom).
