How many vance electrons does neon need to be stable

Chemistry
1 answer:
Aneli [31]4 years ago
8 0
An element is stable when it has a full outershell.
Generally, most shells after the first can hold 8 electrons.
The first shell can only hold 2

So in order for neon to be stable it must have a full outer shell
The first shell can hold 2
Neon has 10 electrons
10-2=8
The second shell can hold 8
And neon has 8 electrons left

So it must have 8 valence electrons to be stable

kaheart [24]

Answer:

Lewis structure is shown in the image below.

Explanation:

Acetate ion (CH₃COO⁻)

Valence electrons of carbon = 4

Valence electrons of oxygen = 6

Valence electrons of hydrogen = 1

Charge = 1 (Negative which means that the electrons are being added)

The total number of the valence electrons  = 2(4) + 2(6) + 3(1) + 1 = 24

The Lewis structure is drawn in such a way that the octet of each atom and duet for the hydrogen in the molecule is complete. So,  

The Lewis structure is shown in the image below.

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Reducing molecules.

Explanation:

NAD (Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is the important molecule used by the living organisms for the generation of ATP. NADH is used almost in every biochemical cycle like glycolysis, kreb cycle and elelctron transport chain.

The NADH molecule is used as the reducing molecule in the biosynthesis of the different reaction. The NADH molecule reduces its hydrogen ions and also carry electrons for the synthesis of molecules. The NADH molecule is also used in the shuttle system as well.

Thus, the answer is reducing molecules.

Question 1: The mixture that can be separated by filtration is:
posledela

Answer:

Filtration is a process in which insoluble matter is separated from a liquid. Filtration is a separation process in which a mixture is passed through a filter that allows one component to pass-through but blocks another component from passing through because of its matter and consistency. Heterogeneous mixtures can be separated into their respective constituents. For example, a mixture of mud and water can be separated through filtration process easily, because water being liquid will pass through the filter paper easily but the mud will not because of it being solid
