The electron configurations of two unknown elements x and y are shown. X: 1s2 2s2 2p6 Y: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 Which statement is

most likely correct about the two elements? A) They will react because X can give up two electrons B) They will react because X and Y can share two pairs of electrons to become stable C) They will not react because both have a complete outermost shell and are stable D) They will not react because both will give up one electron. to become stable.

Answer:

B) They will react because X and Y can share two pairs of electrons to become stable

Explanation:

The electron configurations of two elements x and y are given :

X: 1s2 2s2 2p6

Y: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6

The statement that is true for both the elements is that, they both will react as they both can share two pairs of electrons to become stable.

To become stable the outermost shell or p orbital should have 8 electrons, so element X  can gain 2 atoms to become stable.

Element Y can also react as it can also share two atoms to fulfill its 3p orbital and will stable.

Hence, the correct option is "B".

A 5.0 L sample of gas at 300. K is heated to 600. K. What will the new volume of the gas be?
Ainat [17]

Answer:

V_2=10L

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information, it turns out possible for us to calculate the required new volume by using the Charles' law as a directly proportional relationship between temperature and volume:

\frac{V_2}{T_2} =\frac{V_1}{T_1}

In such a way, we solve for V2 and plug in V1, T1 and T2 to obtain:

V_2=\frac{V_1T_2}{T_1}\\\\V_2=\frac{5.0L*600K}{300K}\\\\V_2=10L

Regards!

How much heat is needed warm 65.34 g of water from 18.43 to 21.75
BaLLatris [955]

Given that  

Mass of water = 65.34 g

Amount of heat = mass of water * specific heat (temperature change

)

= 65.34 g * 4.184 J / g-C ( 21.75-18.43 )C

= 907.63  J  

= 0.908 KJ

And  

1 cal = 4.186798 J

907.63 J * 1 cal / 4.186798 J =216.78  cal

Or0.218 kcal

Marcia is given an incomplete chemical equation that includes the number of nitrogen atoms present in the products of the reacti
Anna [14]

Answer: There would have to be three nitrogen atoms in the products. The law of conservation of matter states that the amount of substance before a reaction occurs  should be the same as the amount of substance after the reaction.

Explanation: This is the EXACT sample answer from the test, just reword it if you want. ^
