In covalent bonds, non-metals share electrons to attain full valence shells.

This non-metal usually forms 2 covalent bonds. This leads me to believe that it has 6 valence electrons to begin with and will take 2 more, one from each bonds. Such that it ends with a full valence shell of 8 electrons.

Answer:

the spotlight effect.

Explanation:

The spotlight effect is a tendency to think that people get noticed more often than they really do. It is an overestimation of the situation regarding the concern of getting observed. It concerns the self-confidence of an individual. For example, an individual feels that everybody in a party would notice him for a bad pair of shoes while in reality, it does not concern them.

As per the question, the overestimation of people's reaction is known as the spotlight effect.

When benzene (c6h6) reacts with bromine (br2) bromobenzene(c6h5br) is obtained: c6h6 + br2 → c6h5br + hbr what is the theoretica

saveliy_v [14]

Answer A) : We have to calculate the number of moles of Benzene involved in the reaction,

30 g / 78 moles of benzene = 0.384 moles

For bromine it will be the same process,

65 g / 159.8 moles = 0.406 moles

By observing the reaction given above we can say that the reaction ratio of bromine and benzene is 1 : 1

We need to find the mass of bromobenzene,

which should be, 6(12) + 5 (1)+ 79.90 = 156.9 g/mol

So, the mass of bromobenzene will be 156.9 g/mol X 0.3846 mol = 60.343 g

Hence the theoretical yield will be 60.34 g

Answer B) : To calculate the actual yield we have to divide it with theoretical yield.

(56.7g / 60.343 g ) X100% = 93.96 %

Here, we can say that we got 93.96 % of actual yield.

As we know it is impossible to get 100% yield in any reaction.

Sort these species into isoelectronic groups. It doesn\'t matter which group goes in which box, so long as the correct species a

OleMash [197]

Answer : The isoelectronic groups are:

$He,Be^{2+},Li^{+}$

$N^{3-},Mg^{2+}$

$S^{2-},Ti^{4+},K^{+}$

Explanation :

Isoelectronic : It is defined as the compound or molecule having the same number of electrons and the same number of electronic structure.

The element is helium. The number of electrons are 2.
The element is beryllium. The number of electrons are 4. The number of electrons in $Be^{2+}$ = 4 - 2 = 2
The element is lithium. The number of electrons are 3. The number of electrons in $Li^{+}$ = 3 - 1 = 2
The element is nitrogen. The number of electrons are 7. The number of electrons in $N^{3-}$ = 7 + 3 = 10
The element is neon. The number of electrons are 10.
The element is sulfur. The number of electrons are 16. The number of electrons in $S^{2-}$ = 16 + 2 = 18
The element is magnesium. The number of electrons are 12. The number of electrons in $Mg^{2+}$ = 12 - 2 = 10
The element is titanium. The number of electrons are 22. The number of electrons in $Ti^{4+}$ = 22 - 4 = 18
The element is potassium. The number of electrons are 19. The number of electrons in $K^{+}$ = 19 - 1 = 18

The isoelectronic groups are:

$He,Be^{2+},Li^{+}$

$N^{3-},Mg^{2+}$

$S^{2-},Ti^{4+},K^{+}$
