Well, when an atom attains a stable valence electron, it means that the outer electrons are complete and so cannot attain any more electrons. For the first shell, it is complete when it has 2 electrons, the second shell is complete when it has 8 electrons, all the other shells also have a particular number when complete. Anyway, i believe the answer is HYDROGEN because when HYDROGEN combines with another atom of HYDROGEN, the outer shell is completed. This is because HYDROGEN has only 1 electron. If the two HYDROGENS, which both have 1 electron combine, they make the electrons 2, which is complete for the first shell, HYDROGEN ends in the first shell. Since the electrons become 2, the shell is at stable valence. In all the other options, this happens;
NEON- It has 10 electrons, 2 in the first shell and 8 in the second. So the the shells are already complete, so it can't bond with any thing, which is completely against the question.
RADON- Radon has 86 electrons.
HELIUM- Helium has 2 electrons, so the shell is already full, and cannot bond, so it goes against the question. The question says BY BONDING.
So the answer is definitely 4) HYDROGEN
Hope i helped. Have a nice day, by the way, i'm very sure it's hydrogen.
Answer:- C. H
Explanations:- Reduction is gain of electron. In other words we could say that decrease in oxidation number is reduction.
As per the rules, oxidation number of hydrogen in its compounds is +1(except metal hydrides) and the oxidation number of oxygen in its compounds is -2.
The oxidation number in elemental form is zero.
In 
, the oxidation number of H is +1 and oxidation number of O is -2. Oxidation number of Cl in 
is -1. On product side, the oxidation number of hydrogen in 
is zero and in 
the oxidation number of H is +1 and that of O is -2. Oxidation number of Cl in 
is 0.
From above data, Oxidation number of O is -2 on both sides so it is not reduced.
Oxidation number of Cl is changing from -1 to 0 which is oxidation.
Oxidation number of H is changing from +1 to 0 which is reduction.
So, the right choice is C.H
Answer:
Sodium Chloride has Ionic bond while Hydrogen Chloride has covalent bond.
Explanation:
Na has 11 electrons (2, 8, 1) and need to give away 1 electron to be stable
Cl has 17 electrons ( 2, 8, 7) and needs 1 electron to be stable.
Na transfers 1 electron to CL to form Ionic bond.
While
Hydrogen has 1 electron and shares with Chlorine to be stable.
Covalent bond involves sharing.
Answer: A. Internal energy : May be viewed as the sum of the kinetic and potential energies of the molecules
B. Latent heat: The internal energy associated with the phase of a system.
C. Chemical (bond) energy : The internal energy associated with the atomic bonds in a molecule
D. Nuclear energy : The internal energy associated with the bonds within the nucleus of the atom itself
Explanation:
Internal energy is defined as the total energy of a closed system. Internal energy is the sum of potential energy of the system and the kinetic energy of the system. It is represented by symbol U.
Latent heat is the thermal energy released or absorbed by a thermodynamic system when the temperature of the system does not change. It is thus also called as hidden heat.
Chemical energy is the energy stored in the bonds of molecules.
Nuclear energy is the energy which is stored in the nucleus of an atom called as binding energy within protons and neutrons.
