Answer:
has 4 electrons in its valence shell.
Explanation:
Silicon has 14 protons, so its neutral atom has also 14 electrons, thus, the electron distribution following the Linus Pauling's diagram is:
1s² 2s²2p⁶ 3s²3p²
Thus, it has 4 electrons in its valence shell (3), likely carbon. So, silicon would have some of the properties of carbon, such as form 4 bonds, and the structure would be similar.
Answer:
Q=mcΔT
Explanation:
The formula for expressing the amount of heat transferred between energy stores is given by the equation. The specific heat capacity of water is 4180 J/kgoC (Joules per kilogram per degree), this means it takes 4180 J of heat energy to raise the temperature of 1 kg of water by 1oC.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
the electrical charges of nonpolar molecules are evenly distributed across the molecule
Using Phosphoric acid will work perfectly for producing Hydrogen halides because its not an Oxidizing agent. ...
Using an ionic chloride and Phosphoric acid
H3PO4 + NaCl ==> HCl + NaH2PO4
H3PO4 + NaI ==> HI + NaH2PO4
H2SO4 + NaCl ==> HCl + NaHSO4
This method(Using H2So4) will work for all hydrogen hydrogen halide except Hydrogen Iodide and Hydrogen Bromide.
The Sulphuric acid won't be useful for producing Hydrogen Iodide because its an OXIDIZING AGENT. Whist producing the Hydrogen Iodide... Some of the Iodide ions are oxidized to Iodine.
2I-² === I2 + 2e-
