Non metals attain stability when they attain nobility .i. e. Fully filled outer shell. In order to achieve that, they undergo covalent bonding by sharing of electrons. Metals on the other hand have free electrons in their valence bands unlike non metals, they dont preferably require covalent bonding.

Calculate the number of moles in 7g of nitrogen gas

Andru [333]

Answer:

Explanation:

7gN2 x $\frac{1 mol}{2(14.01) g}$

=0.2498mol N2

Nitrogen gas has the formula $N_{2}$ so therefore that means you would have to multiply the mass in the molar by 2. To solve for the number of moles you need to cancel out the grams, you do this by using the molar mass of nitrgoen gas. You get the value on in the denominator from the periodic table (atomic mass of element). The grams will cancel out, leaving you with the number of moles when you divide 7/2(14.01).

The first scale of the triple beam balance indicate that the mass is 600.

The second scale of the triple beam balance indicate that the mass is 690.

The third scale of the triple beam balance indicate that the mass is higher that 693.5 and the scale is near but lower than 694, so the mass = 693.8.c
