The answer is 2 electrons.
The electron configuration of calcium is 2:8:8:2
Calcium has two electrons in its outermost shell. These are its valence electrons and are the ones used in bonding with other elements. Valence electrons of an atom are those electrons that are in its outer energy shell or that are available for bonding.
Calcium is a metal. When metals react with non-metals, electrons are transferred from the metal atoms to the non-metal atoms forming ions. The resulting compound is known as an ionic compound.
For example, when calcium metal reacts with chlorine gas, calcium gives up its two valence electrons and Chlorine accepts them resulting in a new substance called calcium chloride in which the two elements have ended up forming ionic bonds.
Answer:
CH3COOH would be more concentrated
Explanation:
The higher the concentration value, the more concentrated it is.
The relationship between concentration, moles and volume is given by the equation;
Concentration = No of moles / Volume
5.0 grams of HCOOH dissolved in 189 mL of water
Number of moles = Mass / Molar mass = 5 / 46.03 = 0.1086 mol
Concentration = 0.1086 / 0.189 = 0.5746 mol/L
1.5 moles of CH3COOH dissolved in twice as much water
Volume = 2 * 189 = 378 ml = 0.378 L
Concentration = 1.5 / 0.378 = 3.9683 mol/L
Comparing both concentration values;
CH3COOH would be more concentrated
Answer:
the smallest mass of material that can sustain a chain reaction
Explanation:
Critical mass refers to the smallest possible mass of a fissionable material that can sustain a chain reaction
The density does not change because it is still the same liquid as before
Convection is where the heat source heats the air, and the air transfers the heat to object. Some people prefer to heat their marshmallow through convection, this is achieved by holding the marshmallow high above the flames where the heated air is rising, transforing the heat into the marshmallow.
