Answer:
To determine how many electrons fit in each energy level, use the formula:
2n²
N is equal to the number of energy levels. Using this formula, we can determine that there are:
- First energy level holds 2 electrons
- Second energy level holds 8 electrons
- Third energy level holds 18 electrons
- Fourth energy level holds 32 electrons
- And so on...
Keep in mind though, that for an atom's outermost shell, it can only contain 8 valence electrons due to the octet rule that states that an element only needs eight electrons in their outermost shell in order to be stable.
Answer:
The correct answer is "two".
Explanation:
The main bondings that has an effect in a Lewis structure in NO2Cl are the double bondings occurring between the Oxygen atoms and the Nitrogen atom. Since the NO2Cl compound has two oxygen atoms attached to the nitrogen atom, two equivalent lewis structures will be necessary to describe it. I attached an example of two equivalent Lewis structure corresponding to a NO2 molecule.
I believe the correct answer is A. Na(g) — Na+(g) + e-
Answer:
Its single - displacement.
Explanation:
The given question is incomplete. The complete question is :
Which of the following Group 17 elements is the least reactive
a) Flourine
b) Chlorine
c) Astatine
d) Iodine
Answer: c) Astatine
Explanation:
Halogen is the name given to Group 17 family with general electronic configuration of
which have 7 valence electrons and thus easily gain one electron to attain stable configuration.
As we move down the group from flourine to chlorine to bromine to iodine to astatine , the valence shell moves farther from nucleus and thus tendency to accept the electron decreases and thus reactivity also decreases.
Thus Astatine is the least reactive of all.
