The answer is (3)Ne. Usually, the elements belongs to group 18 all have completely filled valence electron shell. Among the four elements carbon, vanadium, neon and antimony, only neon belongs to group 18.

In the ground state, the atom that has a completely filled valence electron shell is NEON, Ne.

In the periodic table of elements, the elements that have completely filled valence electron shell are the noble gases and neon is one of them. The noble gases has eight electrons each in their outermost shells, this makes them to be stable and thus, they are unreactive in nature. The other elements in the periodic table usually undergo chemical reactions in order to have eight electrons in their outermost shells just like the noble gases.

Gaseous ethane will react with gaseous oxygen to produce gaseous carbon dioxide and gaseous water . Suppose 2.7 g of ethane is m

Bond [772]

Answer:

$m_{H_2O}=4.86gH_2O$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the described chemical reaction is:

$C_2H_6+\frac{7}{2} O_2\rightarrow 2CO_2+3H_2O$

Thus, for the given reacting masses, we must identify the limiting reactant for us to determine the maximum mass of water that could be produced, therefore, we proceed to compute the available moles of ethane:

$n_{C_2H_6}=2.7gC_2H_6*\frac{1molC_2H_6}{30gC_2H_6} =0.09molC_2H_6$

Next, we compute the moles of ethane consumed by 13.0 grams of oxygen by using the 1:7/2 molar ratio between them:

$n_{C_2H_6}^{consumed\ by \ O_2}=13.0gO_2*\frac{1molO_2}{32gO_2}*\frac{1molC_2H_6}{\frac{7}{2} molO_2}=0.116molC_2H_6$

Thus, we notice there are less available moles of ethane, for that reason, it is the limiting reactant, thereby, the maximum amount of water is computed by considering the 1:3 molar ratio between ethane and water:

$m_{H_2O}=0.09molC_2H_6*\frac{3molH_2O}{1molC_2H_6} *\frac{18gH_2O}{1molH_2O} \\\\m_{H_2O}=4.86gH_2O$

Best regards.

What happens to the number of valence electrons as you move up a group

Advocard [28]

Ionization Energy: DOWN a Group: Ionization energy DECREASES as you go DOWN a Group because the farther the valence electrons are from the nucleus (pulling power of the protons) the less energy it costs another atom to steal them

During prophase, which of the following events

alexdok [17]

Answer:

Spindle fibers form.

DNA condenses into chromosomes.

Explanation:

Prophase is the first stage of mitosis. Mitosis produces 2 daughter cells from a parental cell.

Spindle fibers form - this is true. During prophase, the mitotic spindle forms. Later during mitosis the spindle attaches to the centromere of chromosomes and pulls them to opposite ends of the cell prior to division

DNA condenses into chromosomes. - this is true. In the nucleus during interphase, the DNA is relatively loosely compacted. However, prior to division, the DNA is condensed into structures called chromosomes which are then paired up and distributed to the daughter cell.

Chromosomes move to opposite ends of the cell. - this is false. This happens during anaphase

Nuclear membrane begins to re-form. - this is false. This happens during telophase.
