Which statement correctly describes the reactivity of noble gases, according to the octet rule? Their atoms have eight electrons

in their valence shells, so noble gases are very reactive. Their atoms have one electron in their valence shells, so noble gases are very reactive. Their atoms have one electron in their valence shells, so noble gases are very unreactive. Their atoms have eight electrons in their valence shells, so noble gases are very unreactive.

Answer:

The correct option is : Their atoms have eight electrons in their valence shells, so noble gases are very unreactive.

Explanation:

The octet rule state that atoms tend to complete their last energy levels with eight electrons, and that this configuration make them very stable and unreactive.

Noble gases are characterized as unreactive atoms, and this is associated with the fact that they have a complete valence shell, it means that they have eight electrons on it (they follow the octet rule).

Atoms with less electrons on their valence shells tend to react with another atom, forming bonds, to complete their valence shells (with eight electrons).

Convection occurs when thermal energy is transferred by the movement of
madam [21]

Answer:

Convection is the transfer of thermal energy from one place to another by the movement of gas or liquid particles. How does this happen? As a gas or liquid is heated, the substance expands. This is because the particles in liquids and gases gain kinetic energy when they are heated and start to move faster.

How many protons, electrons, and neutrons are present in an atom of cr-24?
mote1985 [20]

The number of protons, electrons, and neutrons in the atom of cr-24 is 28, 24, and 24 respectively.

<h3>What is atom?</h3>

An atom is the smallest unit of matter, consisting of the positively charged nucleus and the electrons which move around it. The atom can not be divided further.

The atom of a matter is made by three elements-

  • 1) Neutron-Neutron is the element of an atom, which has zero charge.
  • 2) Proton-Proton is the element of an atom, which has a positive charge.
  • 3) Electron-Electron is the element of an atom, which has a negative charge.

The atom of cr-24 has the atomic number 24. The atomic number of atom is equal to the number of proton and electron in an atom. Thus,

\rm Proton=24\\\rm Electron=24

Now, if this atom has the mass number of 52 (most common). Then the number of neutron is,

\rm Neutrons=Mass\; Number-Atomic\; Number\\\rm Neutrons=52-24\\\rm Neutrons=28

Thus, the number of protons, electrons, and neutrons in the atom of cr-24 is 28, 24, and 24 respectively.

Solar energy is a clean, renewable energy source. It is expensive to build a solar plant, but there is no fuel cost only mainten
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

Energy production requires the setting up of a complete interconnected chain from generation of energy from the root source of the energy to the storage of the generated energy and the eventual utilization of the energy when required

Solar energy, indirectly, continues to be the main source of energy, however, the direct use of solar energy to power the systems we use in our everyday life, require the development of technologies, such as high efficiency solar cells, means of energy storage, and compatible efficient energy usage which are industrial areas that are seeing good progress but in which the current developed equipment are expensive to produce, and  due to their efficiency, are undergoing further research and development

Therefore, due to the continuous increasing improvement in solar technology which can observed, the use of the produced energy through solar is evolving, and therefore, will continue to play a continuously increasing but lower role compared to other sources of energy which have been developed to satisfactory level that can drive an industry, considering the financial investment involved

Does the rankine degree represent a larger or smaller temperature unit than the kelvin degree
zvonat [6]
The best and most correct answer among the choices provided by the question is the first choice, larger.

Rankine is Fahrenheit + 460 , while Kelvin is Celsius + 273. We all know that Fahrenheit has larger number compared to kelvin , thus rankine is much larger.
