Answer : The incorrect option is, (d) The reactant that was the smallest given mass is the limiting reagent.
Explanation :
Limiting reagent : It is the reagent that is completely consumed in the chemical reaction when the chemical reaction is complete. No amount is left after the reaction is complete. The amount of product obtained is determined by the limiting reagent. A balanced equation is necessary to determine which reactant is limiting reagent.
Excess reagent : It is the reagent that are not completely consumed in the chemical reaction. That means the reagent is in excess amount. Some amount of the excess reagent is left over after the reaction is complete.
From this we conclude that the options, A, B and C are correct. While the option D is incorrect.
Option D is incorrect because it is not necessary the reactant that was the smallest given mass is the limiting reagent but it is judge by the number of moles present in the reaction.
Hence, the incorrect option is, (d)
valence electrons are the number of electrons in the outer shell. there can only be 8 electrons in the outer shell. The number of valence electrons can be used to determine how many bonds are needed.
For example: H2O
O (oxygen) has 6 valence electrons
H (hydrogen) has 1 valence electron
O needs 2 more electrons to be stable
H needs 1 more electron to be stable
O forms one bond with two H atoms to form H2O.
Answer:
the reactivity and the valence electrons
Explanation:
the reactivity of the elements would have played a significant role in why such elements were grouped together. the number of valence electrons dictates how reactive an element is - the less valence electrons the more reactive it is. the column, group 1 in which these elements are put together in, show that each of the elements have 1 valence electrons and are therefore reactive.
you can go on to further explain what valence electrons are, explain what the group numbers are associated with the valence electrons and how valence electrons effect reactivity. further this, talk about how the three elements have the same number of valence electrons and therefore were grouped together
Temperature, cloud cover and thunder are all examples of weather.
<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>
Weather is described as conditions that prevail for a short period of time and the above-mentioned factors change variably throughout the day. Cloud cover simply describes the clouds coverage in the sky. It is one factor that is used to describe weather conditions since the type of clouds indicates prevailing weather.
For example, the presence of cirrus means there will be a storm in 24 to 48 hours. Weather conditions characterized by thunder is said to be stormy and it also has other conditions such as lightning, wind and fast rain with heavy raindrops. Temperature affects the warmness and coldness of the air and its movement. Moreover, it also affects all other aspects of weather conditions.
