Selenium has six valence electrons. What is the valence of selenium?

Chemistry

viktelen [127]3 years ago
3 0
The six electrons in the outermost shell allow selenium to have a variety of valence numbers.

The valence of selenium depends on which compound it is in. Selenium is very similar to sulfur. It may have a valence of 6.
EXAMPLE:

 selenium hexafluoride SeF6, selenium trioxide SeO3 


May have 4;

example

selenium tetrafluoride SeF4, selenium dioxide SeO2

MAy have 2;
 
example

selenium difluoride SeF2, selenium dichloride SeCl2 

and may have -2;

example

hydrogen selenide H2Se

If the toxic quantity is 1.5 gg of ethylene glycol per 1000 gg of body mass, what percentage of ethylene glycol is fatal
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

The percentage of ethylene glycol that is fatal is 0.15 %

Explanation:

If the toxic quantity of ethylene glycol in a 1kg or 1000 g body weight is 1.5 g then the percentage of ethylene glycol that is fatal is

\frac{1.5}{1000} ˣ 100 = 0.15%

Hence, the percentage of ethylene glycol that is toxic for any body weight is 0.15%. This percentage is very important in various aspects of science including drug discovery and food production/processing

Iodine has many isotopes, but only iodine-127 is stable and is found in nature. One
Lemur [1.5K]
Iodine has 53 protons. For question 82, the number 127 stands for neutrons plus protons. So the neutron for I-127 is 74. For 83, according to the definition of isotopes, they need to have the same number of protons and different number of neutrons. I-127 and I-131 satisfy these requirements. For 85, the half life of I-131 is 8 days which means after 8 days, only half of sample remains unchanged. So if 80 gram change to 1.25 gram, it goes through 6 half life. So it took 48 days.
