Metals are to the left of the zig-zag, nonmetals are to the right, and metalloids lie on/beside the line.
Here we have explain that the maximum possible electrons present in nitrogen valence shell is 8 whereas in phosphorous 12 valence electrons are present.
Although both nitrogen (N) and phosphorous (P) belongs to the same series there are several properties which are different between both the element. The number of electrons present in nitrogen is seven which are present in the -s and -p orbitals. The electronic configuration of nitrogen is 1s²2s²2p³. In which the outermost electrons are the valence electrons i.e. 5 valence electrons are present. The maximum orbitals are possible under the principal quantum number 2 are -s and -p orbitals. Now the maximum capacity of the p orbital to contain 6 electrons, as it is half filled in nitrogen another 3 electrons can be incorporated. Thus the maximum number of electrons can be present in nitrogen is 10 among which 8 is the valence electrons.
On the other hand there are 15 electrons in phosphorous the electronic configuration is 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p³. Now the principal quantum number 3 can have three orbitals -s, -p and -d. So another 13 electrons can be incorporated (3 in -p orbital and 10 in -d orbital) among which upto 12 electrons can be its valence electrons.
Answer:
b. glass and charcoal
Explanation:
Step 1: Given data
- Density of Glass: 2.6 g/mL
- Density of charcoal: 0.57 g/mL
- Density of platinum: 21.4 g/mL
Step 2: Determine which material will float in molten lead
Density is an intrinsic property of matter. Less dense materials float in more dense materials. The materials whose density is lower than that of lead and will therefore float on it are glass and charcoal.
the very bottom of the ocean and they are relevant by most of the animals feed off of the animals that come out of he vents
Answer:
solid
Explanation:
in the solid state the material will has a fixed shape and volume whatever the container that contains it
where in liquid the shape will be different depending on the container
and in gas state the shape and volume are not definite
