Answer:
Four electrons are present in the valence shell of Silicon.
Explanation:
Valence shell electrons are those electrons which are present in the outermost shell of an atom. These valence shell electrons are responsible for in the formation of bonds with other atoms.
Silicon having atomic number 14 has fourteen electrons in its neutral state and has the electronic configuration as follow;
1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p²
In given configuration the valence shell (outermost shell) is 3 and the number of electrons present in it are four i.e. 3s² and 3p² (2 + 2 = 4) respectively.

Answer:
0.143 g of KCl.
Explanation:
Equation of the reaction:
AgNO3(aq) + KCl(aq) --> AgCl(s) + KNO3(aq)
Molar concentration = mass/volume
= 0.16 * 0.012
= 0.00192 mol AgNO3.
By stoichiometry, 1 mole of AgNO3 reacts with 1 mole of KCl to form a precipitate.
Number of moles of KCl = 0.00192 mol.
Molar mass of KCl = 39 + 35.5
= 74.5 g/mol
Mass = molar mass * number of moles
= 74.5 * 0.00192
= 0.143 g of KCl.
Sodium is the reducing agent because a reducing agent is always the donor of electrons.
B: The total thermal energy is greater in a large body of water than one much smaller
Explanation:
A large lake filled filled with cool water will have more thermal energy than smaller pond filled with warmer water because the total thermal energy is greater in a large body of water than one that is much smaller.
Thermal energy is a form of kinetic energy usually due to transfer of heat energy.
Amount of heat energy is dependent on the differences in temperature, mass and specific heat capacity of a body.
Both lake water will have the same specific heat capacity. Since larger body of water has more mass, it will possess more thermal energy.
