No they can't because the definition of an element is, something that exists as a single atom
For example, oxygen is an element and can't be broken down anymore however, it can be combined with hydrogen to make water

Calculate the volume of the gas when the pressure of the gas is 1.60 atm at a temperature of 298 K. There are 160. mol of gas in
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

2445 L

Explanation:

Given:  

Pressure = 1.60 atm

Temperature = 298 K

Volume = ?

n =  160 mol

Using ideal gas equation as:

PV=nRT

where,  

P is the pressure

V is the volume

n is the number of moles

T is the temperature  

R is Gas constant having value = 08206 L.atm/K.mol

Applying the equation as:

1.60 atm × V = 160 mol × 0.08206 L.atm/K.mol × 298 K  

<u>⇒V = 2445.39 L</u>

Answer to four significant digits, Volume = 2445 L

Which element can expand its valence shell to accommodate more than eight electrons? which element can expand its valence shell
Anvisha [2.4K]
<span>According to octet rule,  atoms with an atomic number less than 20 tend to combine  with other atom such that both of these atoms have eight electrons in their valence shells, which gives them the same electronic configuration as that of noble gas.

However, there are few compound that donot obey octel rule. Among the elements mentioned above i.e. oxygen and helium obeys octet rule.

In case of nitrogen, oxide of nitrogen (like NO and NO2) have incomplete octet. 

While there are few compounds of Br wherein Br has expanded octet. For example, in BrF5, Br has 12 electrons in valence shell. </span>

Consider the potassium permanganate reaction again.
Rus_ich [418]
Hey there !

Mole ratio :

<span>2 KMnO4 + 16 HCl → 2 KCl + 2 MnCl2 + 8 H2O + 5 Cl2

2 moles KMnO4 ----------------- 8 moles H2O
3.45 moles KMnO4 ------------- (moles H2O )

Moles H2O = 3.45 * 8 / 2

Moles H2O = 27.6 / 2

 = 13.8 moles of H2O

</span>The option that was given is wrong , <span>You're right.</span>
