Which row in the table shows how many electrons there could be in the outer shell of an atom of V? ​

Chemistry

Amanda [17]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Explanation:

The element V forms acidic oxide so it must be non- metal because oxides of non metal forms acidic oxide like sulphur ( s ) or chlorine ( Cl₂ )

sulphur forms SO₂ or SO₃ . Chlorine forms acidic oxide like Cl₂O₇ , Cl₂O₃ etc

These oxides are covalent compounds .

So V may have 6 or 7 electrons in the outermost orbit .

Hence option D is the right answer.

Explanation:

Elements that belong to same group contains same number of valence electrons. Hence, they tend to show similar chemical properties.

When we move across a period then number of electrons get added to the same shell. As a result, there will be no increase in size of elements.

Also, metals are the elements that belong to group 1, 2 and d-block elements are also known as metals. Metallic character of elements decreases when we move left to right in a periodic table.

As most reactive metals are placed on the left side of periodic table.

Since, size of elements increases on moving down the group. So, an element is able to easily lose its valence electrons because of less force of attraction between its nucleus and valence electrons.

As a result, there will be increase in reactivity of metals on moving down the group.

Thus, we can conclude that given sentences are as follows.

  • Elements in the same group have the same number of valence electrons.
  • Elements in the same period have the same number of electron shells.
  • Metallic elements become less reactive as you move left to right in a period.
  • Metallic elements become more reactive as you move top to bottom in a group.

Coefficients are used in a chemical formula to show the number of each element. True or False
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

The same number of each element present before the reaction takes place must also be present on the product side of the equation. Coefficients are placed in front of a chemical formula to show the number of moles of that substances that are necessary for the reaction to occur.
