Valency, the combining capacity of an element, is equal to the number of electrons needed, or required to be removed from the outermost shell of the atom of that element, to have a complete 'octet'. The helium atom has only the 1s orbital in its only shell, and it is completely filled with 2 electrons. Its electronic configuration is 1s2.<span>Therefore, helium and the other inert gases with complete octets normally do not take part in chemical reactions. They are considered as zero-valent elements.</span>

What is true about a block of ice at -10 degrees celsius as you continue to apply heat...
Y_Kistochka [10]

A. Its temperature will rise continuously until it completely melts

I don't believe that any of the other answers are correct because the ice cannot stay at a certain temperature if it is melting.

30.0 ml of an hf solution were titrated with 22.15 ml of a 0.122 m koh solution to reach the equivalence point. what is the mola
a_sh-v [17]
Answer is: molarity of hydrofluoric solution is 0.09 M.

Chemical reaction: HF(aq) + KOH(aq) → KF(aq) + H₂O(l).
V(HF) = 30.0 mL.
c(KOH) = 0.122 M.
V(KOH) = 22.15 mL:
c(HF) = ?.
From chemical reaction: n(HF) : n(KOH) = 1 : 1.
n(HF) = n(KOH).
c(HF) · V(HF) = c(KOH) · V(KOH).
c(HF) = c(KOH) · V(KOH) ÷ V(HF).
c(HF) = 0.122 M · 22.15 mL ÷ 30 mL:
c(HF) = 0.09 M.
