Answer:
d
Explanation:
they either gain valence electrons or share them depending on what elements or compound they are reacting with
Do you still need the answer for these ? if so , i have them
Answer:
The volume of the gas is 2.80 L.
Explanation:
An ideal gas is a theoretical gas that is considered to be made up of point particles that move randomly and do not interact with each other. Gases in general are ideal when they are at high temperatures and low pressures.
The Pressure (P) of a gas on the walls of the container that contains it, the Volume (V) it occupies, the Temperature (T) at which it is located and the amount of substance it contains (number of moles, n) are related from the equation known as Equation of State of Ideal Gases:
P*V = n*R*T
where R is the constant of ideal gases.
In this case:
- P= 2 atm
- V= ?
- n=0.223 moles
- R= 0.0821

- T=33 °C= 306 °K (being O°C= 273°K)
Replacing:
2 atm* V= 0.223 moles*0.0821
* 306 K
Solving:

V= 2.80 L
<u><em>The volume of the gas is 2.80 L.</em></u>
Let's eliminate these one by one.
The first pair would not be the same, as X would most likely be in group IA, and Y would be in group VIIA, because of their tendency to gain and lose electrons.
The second pair would also violate the same rule, but X would most likely be in group IIA, and Y would most likely be in group VIA.
The third pair would not be the same, as X is most likely in group VIIA, and since Y has eight valence electrons, it is most likely a noble gas.
The final pair has X with atomic number 15, making it phosphorous. Phosphorous wants to gain 3 electrons to have a full octet of 8 outer "valence" electrons, and Y would also like to gain 3 electrons. This means it is possible that the final pair would be in the same group.
