Answer: 8 electrons
Explanation: Valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost shell of an atom and they are important in chemical reactions.
Atoms are <em>happy</em> when they follow the octet rule which states that 2 electrons can go in the first shell and 8 electrons can go in the other shells.
Electrons are happy when they have a full outer shell which usually needs to be 8 electrons. However, some of the smaller elements like helium are happy because they can hold a max of 2 electrons and helium has 2 electrons since it has 2 protons in its core as well as 2 electrons in its energy levels.
Answer:
The ability for a pond to freeze over in the winter is a physical property.
Answer is: chemical.
Making a pancake from batter is chemical change (chemical reaction), because new substances are formed, the atoms are rearranged and the reaction is followed by an energy change.
Batter is thin dough that is poured into a pan to make pancakes.
In physical change, the same substance is present before and after the psysical change, just with different form or state of matter.
Answer:
Oxidation of potassium amalgam with carbon dioxide results in the formation of potassium oxalate. Potassium is not reactive with benzene, although heavier alkali metals such as cesium react to give organometallic products.

Answer: An electron having a quantum number of one is closer to the nucleus
Explanation:
The Bohr model relies on electrostatic attraction between the nucleus and orbital electron. Hence, the closer an electron is to the nucleus the more closely it is held by the nucleus and the lesser its energy (the more stable the electron is and the more difficult it is to ionize it). The farther an electron is from the nucleus ( in higher shells or energy levels), the less the electrostatic attraction of such electron to the nucleus due to shielding effect. Hence it is less tightly held.
