The velocity of the gas is inversely proportional to the square root of the molar mass of the gass. Heavier molecules tend to travel slow compared to light molecules. Among these, He has the lowest molar mass of 4 g/mol hence this element has the greatest velocity among all molecules given.
Answer:
Here’s what I get.
Explanation:
- The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom.
- The number of protons determines the number of electrons.
- The number of electrons determines the chemical properties of the element,
Thus, the atomic number determines the identity of the element.
The atomic mass does not affect the chemical properties, so different isotopes of an element behave alike.
The metalloid that has three valence electrons is Boron~
