Carbon will have 4 valence electrons.  It will have 2 in the p orbital and 2 in the s orbital.  You can see this when you find the noble gas configuration of carbon which is [He]2s²2p² showing that carbon has 4 valence electrons.
I hope this helps.  Let me know if anything is unclear.

ASAPPP. Describe how you could determine the specific heat of a sample of a solid substance. You may
Allushta [10]

Answer:

I would use calorimetric to determine the specific heat and I would measure the mass of a sample

Explanation:

I would use calorimetry to determine the specific heat.

I would measure the mass of a sample of the substance.

I would heat the substance to a known temperature.

I would place the heated substance into a coffee-cup calorimeter containing a known mass of water with a known initial temperature.

I would wait for the temperature to equilibrate, then calculate temperature change.

I would use the temperature change of water to determine the amount of energy absorbed.

I would use the amount of energy lost by substance, mass, and temperature change to calculate specific heat.

Find the density of a cube on Earth that weighs 1.5 kg and has a side-length of 10 cm.
Inga [223]

Answer:

1.5g/cm³

Explanation:

density=mass÷volume

mass= 1.5kg (<em>c</em><em>h</em><em>a</em><em>n</em><em>g</em><em>e</em><em> </em><em>i</em><em>n</em><em>t</em><em>o</em><em> </em><em>g</em>) = 1500g

volume of the cube = 10×10×10 = 1000cm³

density= divide 1500g÷1000cm = 1.5g/cm³

<h2>Density= 1.5g/cm³</h2>
