The correct answer is the second option. Particulate matter is the air pollutant known to affect people with asthma. It also can cause other illnesses like cough, chest discomfort and a burning sensation in the lungs.
Answer: The correct answer is the option: B. An element with eight valence electrons is chemically unstable.
Explanation:
Hello! Let's solve this!
We will analyze each of the options:
A. The group number of the element provides a clue to the number of valence electrons: it is correct, since it provides the number of valence electrons.
B. An element with eight valence electrons is chemically unstable: this is not correct, since elements with eight electrons in the valence shell cannot react because they already have the last complete shell. Therefore, they are chemically stable.
C. The points must be placed one at a time on each side of the chemical symbol: it is correct, because that is the way to make the point diagram.
D. An atom is chemically stable if all the points are paired: this is correct since this verifies that the point diagram has been done well.
We conclude that the correct answer is the option: B. An element with eight valence electrons is chemically unstable.
Hope this helps..... Stay safe and have a Merry Christmas!!!!!!!!! :D
1. How is the modern periodic table organized? Increasing atomic number
2. What information about an atom's properties can you read from the periodic table? Metal or not metal. Does it want to gain or lose electrons
3. How are the relationships of elements in a group different from the relationships of elements in a period? a group will have similar properties A period will have different properties
4. Would you expect Strontium (Sr) to be more like potassium (K) or bromine (Br)?
potassium
5. Barium (Ba) is in Group 2. Recall that atoms in Group 1 lose one electron to form ions with a 1+ charge. What type of ion does barium form? Ba+2
