Answer:

Sulfur

Explanation:

Valence electrons are the group numbers. The group numbers are the numbers that go from left to right on the top. But since you can't have more than 8 valence electrons, the group numbers of 13-18, the valence electrons will actually be from 3-8. So 6 valence electrons would be group 16. That narrows it down a lot. The only elements in this group are oxygen, sulfur, selenium, tellurium, polonium, and livermorium.

Energy level are the period numbers. The period numbers are the numbers that go from top to bottom. So the 3rd energy level is the 3rd period. So when you look at the periodic table, under the 16 group and 3rd period, lies Sulfur.

I believe the answer is B

Explanation:

A nucleus of an atom has protons and neutrons. We know that a proton has a charge of +1 , while a neutron has no charge, or 0 . Therefore, the nucleus of an atom will always have a positive charge.

Does mercury have more protons and electrons than tin?

Eva8 [605]

Yes. Mercury has 80 protons. Tin has 50 protons. Same for electrons, it just doesn't have an exact number.

What is the specific heat of titanium in j/(g⋅∘c) if it takes 89.7 j to raise the temperature of a 33.0 g block by 5.20 ∘c?

larisa [96]

Specific heat capacity is the amount of energy required to raise one gram of substances by 1 degree celsius . Therefore specific heat capacity for tatanium is 89.7j /( 33.0g x5.2 degree celsius) = 0.52j/g degree celcius
Molar mass for tatanium is 47.9 g/mole
heat is therefore 47.9 g/mole x 0.52j/g =24.9j/mole

The half of the moon facing the sun is always lit, but the different phases happen because:

zvonat [6]

Answer:

we only see parts of the lit side as the moon goes around the earth

Explanation:

Unlike the sun, the moon orbits the Earth. This is the reason why we see the different phases of the moon. The reflection of the moon is being illuminated back to us with the help of the sun. So, as the moon circles the Earth, we only see parts of the lit side. Such changes helps us see the moon in different phases such as the Third Quarter, Crescent, New Moon, Full Moon, etc.

For example, during "Full Moon," the moon's entire face is lit up by the sun. Thus, we see the entire moon's lit portion.

Thus, this explains the answer.
