What is the easiest way for atoms without a full valence shell to gain a full valence shell?

Chemistry

sergey [27]3 years ago

Most atoms do not. For those atoms that do not have a full valence shell (which usually would contain eight electrons, except for hydrogen and helium, where it would contain two), something has to change. So nature's tendency toward a full valence shell will lead to one of two things: The gain or loss of electrons.

Not most atoms. Most atoms. Something needs to change for atoms that do not have a complete valence shelled (usually containing eight electrons other than hydrogen and helium, where there are two), Thus the tendency of nature to reach an entire valence shell leads to one of two things: electron gain or loss.

If Log 4 (x) = 12, then log 2 (x / 4) is equal to
Alexus [3.1K]

The value of log₂(x/4) is 22. Using the properties of the logarithm, the required value is calculated.

<h3>What are the required properties of the logarithm?</h3>

The required logarithm properties are

logₐx = n ⇒ aⁿ = x; and logₐ(xⁿ) = n logₐ(x);

Where a is the base of the logarithm.

<h3>Calculation:</h3>

It is given that,

log₄(x) = 12;

On applying the property logₐx = n ⇒ aⁿ = x; here a = 4;

So,

log₄(x) = 12 ⇒ 4¹² = x

⇒ x = (2²)¹² = 2²⁴

Then, calculating log₂(x/4):

log₂(x/4) = log₂(2²⁴/4)

              = log₂(2²⁴/2²)

              = log₂(2²⁴ ⁻ ²)

              = log₂(2²²)

On applying the property logₐ(xⁿ) = n logₐ(x);

log₂(x/4) = 22 log₂2

We know that logₐa = 1;

So,

log₂(x/4) = 22(1)

∴ log₂(x/4) = 22.

Which chemical equation represents a decomposition reaction?
MrMuchimi

Decomposition reaction D. 2H20⇒ 2H2 + O2

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Every chemical reaction involves a compound consisting of reactants and products  

Reactants are compounds that react and form new compounds called products

There are several forms of reactions that can occur, including single replacement, double replacement, synthesis, decomposition, etc.

A. 2C2H6 + 702 ⇒ 4CO2 + 6H20

Combustion : reaction of Hydrocarbon and Oxygen

B. AgNO3 + LiCl → AgCl + LINO3

Double replacement : there is an ion exchange between two ion compounds in the reactant to form two new ion compounds in the product

C. Ca + MgS → CaS + Mg

Single replacement :one element replaces the other elements of a compound to produce new elements and compounds

D. 2H20⇒ 2H2 + O2

Decomposition : One compound breaks down into 2 components

Suppose that in an ionic compound, "m" represents a metal that could form more than one type of ion. in the formula mf2 , the ch
geniusboy [140]
F (Fluorine) is in column (group/family) VIIA, or the "halogens". When you see the halogens (Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, and Iodine) in combination with a metal, each halogen atom present will carry a -1 charge. We can see that the atom has no charge, so the metal must cancel out the negative charges brought by the two fluorine atoms.
(Charge on m) + 2*(charge on fluorine) = 0
(Charge on m) + 2*(-1) = 0
(Charge on m) - 2 = 0
Charge on m ion = +2
