valance electrons that reside in the outermost shell of an atom in the highest energy level. They are important to atoms because the fewer valence electrons that the atom holds, it becomes less stable.
I take honors chemistry I hope this helps.
Answer:
acid rain
Explanation:
When sulfur dioxide combines with water and air, it forms sulfuric acid, which is the main component of acid rain. Acid rain can: cause deforestation.
The image of the bonds are missing, so i have attached it.
Answer:
A) - Sigma bond
-Sp³ and Sp³
- None
B) - Sigma and pi bond
- Sp² of C and p of O
- p of C and P of O
Explanation:
A) For compound 1;
- the molecular orbital type is sigma bond due to the end-to-end overlapping.
- Atomic orbitals in the sigma bond will be Sp³ and Sp³
- Atomic orbitals in the pi bond would be nil because there is no pi bond.
B) For compound 2;
- the molecular orbital type is sigma and pi bond
-Atomic orbitals in the sigma bond would be Sp² of C and p of O
- The Atomic orbitals in the pi bond will be; p of C and p of O
A chain reaction is a nuclear reaction that occurs when sufficient unstable nuclei are present so that when one splits (decays), its products hit other unstable nuclei, causing them to decay and initiating a chain reaction.
If this reaction goes uncontrolled, a massive explosion occurs. Such a reaction is the type that went uncontrolled when nuclear bombs were dropped over Hiroshima and Nagasaki in World War II. A chain reaction is much like dominoes all in a row; when one goes down, they all go down in order. The only way to block the chain reaction is to pull out a domino or to block the fall so the "chain" is broken.
The amount of fissionable material needed to accomplish a spontaneous chain reaction is called the critical mass. The critical mass for U-235 is about 1 kg. This explosive fission process takes place quickly, and an incredible amount of energy is released when it occurs.
So it would be C.
