One lone pair, as there is a single covalent bond between the hydrogen and the carbon, and a triple covalent bond between the nitrogen and the carbon, leaving two free electrons/one electron pair on the nitrogen..... I think ((:

A sample of salt (sodium chloride) is placed on the tip of a platinum wire. When the sample is heated on blue flame the flame tu
gulaghasi [49]
So platinum is a transition metal. In general transition metals are reducers, which means they can give the electrons they have, to the sodium atoms. Also in chemistry we look at sub orbitals rather that shells(2,8,8). So due to the energy from heat, the d orbital split as electrons move to a higher energy level. Some of the electrons are given to the sodium ions and therefore the flame changes colour to yellow. 
The excitation of the electrons is caused by them getting energy and so moving up an energy level. This energy is released and the electron returns to it's original state. The energy released, however, does not release in the same direction, but in different/various directions. Therefore the colour of the light changes as some energy is released in the surrounding.

A scientist digs up sample of arctic ice that is 458,000 years old. He takes it to his lab and finds that it contains 1.675 gram
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

6.70 grams of krypton-81 was present when the ice first formed

Explanation:

Let use the below formula to find the amount of sample

N= N_0(\frac{1}{2})^n

where

n = \frac{t}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}

here

t =  458,000 years

t_{\frac{1}{2}} = 229,000

\frac{t}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}} = \\frac{ 458,000}{229,000}

n = \frac{t}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}} = 2.000

Now substituting the values

1.675 = N_0(\frac{1}{2})^{2.000}}

1.675 = N_0\times (0.2500)

N_0= \frac{1.675}{0.2500}

N_0=6.70

The elements from this section of the periodic table all belong to the same
krok68 [10]

Answer:

Option C = same period.

Explanation:

All these elements belongs to second period of periodic table. This period consist of eight elements lithium, beryllium, boron, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine and neon.

Electronic configuration of lithium:

Li₃ = [He] 2s¹

Electronic configuration of beryllium:

Be₄ = [He] 2s²

Electronic configuration of boron:

B₅ = [He] 2s² 2p¹

Electronic configuration of carbon:

C₆ = [He] 2s² 2p²

Electronic configuration of nitrogen:

N₇ = [He] 2s² 2p³

Electronic configuration of oxygen:

O₈ = [He] 2s² 2p⁴

Electronic configuration of fluorine:

F₉ = [He] 2s² 2p⁵

Electronic configuration of neon:

Ne₁₀ = [He] 2s² 2p⁶

All these elements present in same period having same electronic shell.

However their families, valance electrons and group are different. Boron have three valance electrons and belongs to group 3A. Carbon belongs to group 4A and have 4 valance electrons. Nitrogen belongs to group 5A and have five valance electrons. Oxygen belongs to group 6A and have six valance electrons. Fluorine belongs to group 7A and have seven valance electrons.
