Zeff = Z - S

Here, Z is the number of protons in the nucleus, that is, atomic number, and S is the number of nonvalence electrons.

For boron, the electronic configuration is 1s₂ 2s₂ 2p₄

Z = 5, S = 2

Zeff = 5-2 = +3

For O, electronic configuration is 1s₂ 2s₂ 2p₄

Z = 8, S = 2

Zeff = 8-2 = +6

Hence, the correct answer is second option, that is, +3 and +6, the Zeff of boron is smaller in comparison to O, thus, boron exhibits a bigger size than O.

Why does galium melt
levacccp [35]

Answer:

Like most other metals, Gallium is solid at room temperature (or liquid if it is too hot in your room). But, if it is held [in hands] for long enough, it melts in your hands, and doesn't poison you like Mercury would. This is because of its unusually low melting point of (~29 degree Centigrade).

- It melts once it reaches its melting point.

Plz answer all 3, I will give 5 stars and brainiest!!! :)<br><br> THANKS
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

B. Positive charge is caused by lack of electrons. A positive ion is formed by the loss of negatively charged electrons. Although the number of protons does not change in the ion, there is an excess number of protons over electrons which produces the positive charge. All electrons in the outer energy level are lost.

C. If there are more electrons than protons, then the element is a negative ion. The amount of neutrons does not play a factor into making a difference between an atom or an ion.

Explanation:

please give brainliest. :)

and have a great day!

Student carries out a titration to determine the concentration of a solution of
Nimfa-mama [501]

The concentration of the Nitric acid solution : 0.114 M

<h3>Further explanation  </h3>

Titration is a procedure for determining the concentration of a solution (analyte) by reacting with another solution whose known concentration (usually a standard solution) is called the titrant. Determination of the endpoint/equivalence point of the reaction can use indicators according to the appropriate pH range  

Titrations can be acid-base titration, depositional titration, and redox titration. An acid-base titration is the principle of neutralization of acids and bases  

Reaction

HNO₃ + NaOH → NaNO₃ + H₂O​

Concentration a standard solution  of sodium hydroxide :  0.0998 mol/dm³ , and the volume = 25 cm³

moles NaOH=

\tt mol=M\times V\\\\mol=0.0998\times 25\\\\mol=2.495~mlmoles

<em>From the equation, mol ratio HNO₃ : NaOH = 1 : 1, so mol HNO₃ = mol NaOH=</em><em>2.495 mlmoles</em>

<em></em>

The volume of HNO₃ = 21.8 cm³, so the concentration :

\tt M=\dfrac{n}{V}\\\\M=\dfrac{2.495}{21.8}\\\\M=0.114

What is true about resonance structures? Select the correct answer below: They are all different molecules. The interconvert wit
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

The correct answer is: <em>They each partially describe the bonding in a molecule.</em>

Explanation:

Some chemical molecules cannot be described completely by using only one Lewis structure. In these cases, we can describe the molecule by drawing 2 or more Lewis structures, and the structures are called <u>resonance structures</u>. The overall molecular structure is explained by all the resonance structures together. So, they each describe the bonding in the molecule only partially.
