A neutral atom with the electron configuration 2-8-6 would most likely form a bond with an atom having the configuration

Chemistry
1 answer:
Fittoniya [83]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The configuration of the atom would be 2-8-2.

Explanation:

Any atom of an element combines with other element to complete its octet and become stable.

The electron configuration of the given atom is 2-8-6. That means the atom has 6 electrons in its outermost shell. To become stable the atom should have 8 electrons in its outermost shell. The given atom has 6 electrons so it either lose 6 electrons or gain 2 electrons to complete its octet.

But we know the atom having 5,6,7 electrons in its outermost shell they do not lose, they gain either 3 or 2 or 1 electrons to complete its octet.

So we say that atom with the electron configuration 2-8-6 bond with the atom having electron configuration 2-8-2.

<h3>What is Kinetic theory of gases?</h3>

A lot of the fundamental ideas of thermodynamics were established with the help of the kinetic theory of gases, a straightforward yet historically significant classical model of the thermodynamic behaviour of gases. According to the model, a gas is made up of numerous identical submicroscopic particles (atoms or molecules) that are all moving rapidly and randomly. It is considered that they are substantially smaller in size than the particle spacing on average. Random elastic collisions between the particles and with the container's walls occur between the particles. The simplest form of the model only takes into account the interactions within the ideal gas.

Which of the answer choices correctly describes a solvent made of molecules that have areas of partial positive and negative cha
damaskus [11]

Answer: polar solvent

Explanation:

Polarity can be said to mean, charge separation. Thus, polar solvents are solvents that have charge separation and the ability to solvate i.e dissolve ions.

A polar solvent molecule has slight electrical charge as a result of its shape. A typical and most common example is water, with an oxygen and two hydrogen atoms. The two hydrogen atoms are at an angle to the single oxygen atom. Water is the classic polar solvent. The oxygen atom tends to polarize electron density to itself.

What kind of solution would have a Kb value much greater than 1?
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

B. a strongly basic solution

Explanation:

Kb is base dissociation constant, which indicates how completely a base dissociates into its component ions in water. The greater the Kb value, the greater the alkalinity of the solution and vice versa.

Therefore, a solution with a Kb value much greater than 1, indicates a strongly basic solution, while a solution with a Kb value less than 1, indicates a weakly basic solution.
