A noble gas is different from other elements because <u>they are the most stable elements that can have the maximum number of valence electrons on their outer shells.</u> This characteristic allows the noble gases to rarely react with other elements, unlike all the other elements found within the periodic table. Nobel gases are found in the group 18 of the periodic table and these are Argon, Neon, Krypton, Xenon, Organesson, Helium, and Radon.

A nickel compound has the formula Ni(NO3)2•xH,0 and a molar mass
Fofino [41]
<h2>Answer:  x = 6</h2>

Explanation:

Molar mass of a compound is the sum of the molar mass of all the atoms of the compound.

⇒ Molar mass of the Nickel Compound (Hydrated Nickel (II) Nitrate)

             = Molar mass (Ni+ 2N + 6O)+ x (2H+ O)

             = [58.693 +  2(14.007) + 6(15.999)] + x [2(1.008) + 15.999] g/mol

             = (182.701 + 18.015x) g/mol

Since the molar mass is known to be  290.7 g/mol

then  182.701 + 18.015x = 290.7

⇒                       18.015x =  290.7 - 182.701

                                    x =  (290.7 - 182.701) ÷ 18.015

∴                                   x = 6    [conventionally expressed as a whole number]

            that makes the compound Nickel Nitrate Hexahydrate

Nitrogen is a group 15 element. What does being in this group imply about the structure of the nitrogen atom?
Yanka [14]

Answer:

D. Nitrogen has 5 valence electrons.

Explanation:

Nitrogen is an element in group 5A of the periodic table. Elements in group 5A all contain just 5 valence electrons. (Electrons in the outer shell).

**Elements are organized into these groups in a periodic table based on the number of valence electrons which determines their charge. (Does not apply to transition metals)
