B.) Valence Electrons. The nucleus of the valence electrons attracts and pulls atoms together.
Answer:
(a) (i) All the elements of a group have similar chemical properties because they have same no. of valence electrons in their outermost shell. (ii) All the elements of a period have different chemical properties because they have different no. of valence electrons in their atoms.
Answer:
0.914moles
Explanation:
The number of moles in a substance can be got by dividing the number of atoms/molecules/particles by Avagadro's constant (6.02 × 10^23).
That is;
number of moles (n) = number of atom (nA) ÷ 6.02 × 10^23
According to this question, there are 5.5 x 10-23 molecules of H2O
n = 5.5 x 10^23 ÷ 6.02 × 10^23
n = 0.914 × 10^(23-23)
n = 0.914 × 10^0
n = 0.914 × 1
n = 0.914moles
