None. To bind with an hydrogem atom, the carbon needs to ''share'' one of it's valence electron's with the hydrogen's valence electron. Therefore, forming 4 bounds means the carbon atom will share it's 4 valence electrons and there will be no lone electrons.

silicon, tin, and lead are all in the same group. the density of tin is about 7.28 g/cm3 and the density of lead is about 11.34
Sophie [7]

The atom's radius and mass increase from top to bottom. The density of elements from top to bottom also increases in a periodic table.

Density of Sn= Mass of Sn/Volume of Sn

                     =24.3968/7.28

                     =3.49 g/ml*ml/cm³

                     =3.49 g/cm³

It is accurate to assume that the density of Sn will fall between that of Si and lead .  the mass number and radius of the atoms increase from group to group as we move from top to bottom in a periodic table.. The density rises because the increase in mass number is greater than the increase in radius. Simply multiplying by the molar mass of the gas  allows one to derive the formula for mass density from the formula for number density. Do not forget that the mass is equal to the moles (n) times the molar mass (M).  Smaller masses can be measured in grams instead of kilograms (kg), which is the standard SI unit for mass.

Write the NET IONIC EQUATION between iron and copper (II) sulfate.
ratelena [41]

<u>Answer:</u> The net ionic equation is written below.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Net ionic equation of any reaction does not include any spectator ions.

Spectator ions are defined as the ions which does not get involved in a chemical equation. They are found on both the sides of the chemical reaction when it is present in ionic form.

The chemical equation for the reaction of iron and copper (II) sulfate is given as:

Fe(s)+CuSO_4(aq.)\rightarrow FeSO_4(aq.)+Cu(s)

Ionic form of the above equation follows:

Fe(s)+Cu^{2+}(aq.)+SO_4^{2-}(aq.)\rightarrow Fe^{2+}(aq.)+SO_4^{2-}(aq.)+Cu(s)

As, sulfate ions are present on both the sides of the reaction. Thus, it will not be present in the net ionic equation and are spectator ions.

The net ionic equation for the above reaction follows:

Fe(s)+Cu^{2+}(aq.)\rightarrow Fe^{2+}(aq.)+Cu(s)

Hence, the net ionic equation is written above.
