Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Atomic number of helium is 2 and its electronic configuration is 1s^{2}. As here n = 1 this means that helium element belongs to period 1.

Since, helium atom has completely filled s-shell this means that it is unreactive in nature as it neither needs to lose or gain an electron in order to attain stability.

And, all the unreactive elements in the periodic table belongs to group 8A. That is why, helium also belongs to group 8A and period 1.

Thus, we can conclude that helium is located in Group 8A, Period 1 .

The answer iiiis... A: Group 8A, Period 1


<h3>Here's why:</h3>

The way I found this doesn't have much thought or explanation--I just remember that helium and hydrogen are in period 1. The only answer choice with "period 1" is A.

Why is it important to use scientific notation when talking about our solar system<br> and galaxies?
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

The main purpose for converting numbers into scientific notation is to make calculations with surpisingly large or small numbers less complicated. Since zeros are not used to place the decimal point, all of the digits in a number in scientific notation are meaningful and easier to read. Hope this helps!

A combustion reaction occurs between one molecule of methane (CHa) and two molecules of oxygen (O2).
SCORPION-xisa [38]

The total number of atoms make up the products :

D) 1 carbon, 4 hydrogen, and 4 oxygen

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Complete combustion of Hydrocarbons with Oxygen will produce CO₂ and H₂O compounds.

If O₂ is insufficient there will be incomplete combustion produced by CO and H and O

Hydrocarbon combustion reactions (especially alkanes)

For combustion of methane (CH₄) and two molecules of oxygen (O₂).

\tt CH_4+2O_2\rightarrow CO_2+2H_2O

The number of atoms make up the products

CO₂ : 1 carbon, 2 oxygen

2H₂O : 4 hydrogen , 2 oxygen

Which is the correct Lewis dot structure for BeH2 ?
kherson [118]
H• •Be• •H --> H:Be:H
Since there are 4 valence electrons in total, Beryllium has 2 and Hydrogen has 2. You would put the Be in the middle because there is only 1 of them.
