Answer:
a
Explanation:
Because of their valence electron
Carbon, Silicon and germanium has 4 as their valence electron
1) H2O is able to dissolve both polar molecules and non polar ones
2) due to its extreme polarity it can even dissolve some I onic compounds
3 the h2o molecule itself is small in size
Answer:
The four coefficients in order, separated by commas are 1, 8, 5, 6
Explanation:
We count the atoms in order to balance this combustion reaction. In combustion reactions, the products are always water and carbon dioxide.
C₅H₁₂ + ?O₂→ ?CO₂ + ?H₂O
We have 12 hydrogen in right side and we can balance with 6 in the left side. But the number of oxygen is odd. We add 2 in the right side, so we have 24 H, and in the product side we add a 12.
As we add 2 in the C₅H₁₂, we have 10 C, so we must add 10 to the CO₂ in the product side.
Let's count the oxygens: 20 from the CO₂ + 12 from the water = 32.
We add 16 in the reactant side. Balanced equation is:
2C₅H₁₂ + 16O₂→ 10CO₂ + 12H₂O
We also can divide by /2 in order to have the lowest stoichiometry
C₅H₁₂ + 8O₂→ 5CO₂ + 6H₂O
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Metallic character decreases as you move across a period in the periodic table from left to right. This occurs as atoms more readily accept electrons to fill a valence shell than lose them to remove the unfilled shell. Metallic character increases as you move down an element group in the periodic table. This is because electrons become easier to lose as the atomic radius increases, where there is less attraction between the nucleus and the valence electrons because of the increased distance between them.
