Answer:
Oxygen molecule is 2 oxygen atoms in a covalent bond, whereas an oxygen atom is an atom with 8 electrons (6 valence electrons).
Thus, clearly, any element in a bonded state is always more stable than when in an un-bonded state.
Explanation:
Because the easier a metal donates an electron (Low Ionization Energy), the more readily a non-metal with high electromagnetically will accept it.
Thus they match well, - one readily donates, the other readily accepts. This is how ionic bonding occurs.
Hope this helps.
Answer : The final volume of balloon will be, 3.35 L
Explanation :
Boyle's Law : It is defined as the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and number of moles.

or,

where,
= initial pressure = 789 mmHg
= final pressure = 632 mmHg
= initial volume = 2.68 L
= final volume = ?
Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:


Therefore, the final volume of balloon will be, 3.35 L
Carbon and tungsten are the most common heat resistant elements known. Their melting points are approximately 3400 to 3800 degrees Celsius. Ceramic materials as well are known to be heat resistant inorganic solids. Ceramics are made up of metallic and nonmetallic elements.
