Halogens are a group of elements consisting of Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, Iodine and Astatine. In their ionic form, they have a superscript of -1, for example, chloride ion is Cl-1. These means that they readily accept one electron in order to achieve the Octet rule. The Octet rule states that each atom must contain 8 electrons in their valence shell for it to be stable. The most stable set of elements are the noble gases. Because they already fulfill the Octet rule, they no longer take part in reactions. Halogens are also very electronegative, meaning, they attract more electrons toward them. This is also a consequence of the Octet rule.
From the choices, the answers would be:
<span>they require only one electron to complete their outer shell
they have a high electronegativity</span>
The molar mass of the compound potassium nitrate, KNO3 is equal to 101.1032 g/mol. Then, we determine the number of moles present in the given amount,
n = 11.75g / (101.1032 g/mol) = 0.116 mol
Then, molarity is calculated by dividing the number of moles by the volume of the solution. The answer is therefore 0.058 M.
Answer:
Oxygen
Explanation:
If two balloons are filled with hydrogen gas and helium gas respectively, then we want to identify what gas is in each balloon, we have to do so by exposing the both balloons to flame in an oxygen atmosphere.
Hydrogen combines with oxygen in the presence of a flame with quite a loud sound and the flame is sustained but when a flame is brought near helium gas in a balloon, the gas will only make a little sound when exposed to the flame and extinguish the flame.
The reason for the explosion of the gas in the hydrogen balloon is that combustion of hydrogen gas is exothermic. The heating up of surrounding air molecules leads to a sudden explosion.
However, the helium balloon makes a little sound when the balloon is ruptured releasing helium gas which extinguishes the flame.
Answer:
It's False
Explanation:
In a chemical reaction, reactants that are not used up when the reaction is finished are called excess reagents. The reagent that is completely used up or reacted is called the limiting reagent, because its quantity limits the amount of products formed.

To calculate electronegativity, start by going online to find an electronegativity table. You can then assess the quality of a bond between 2 atoms by looking up their electronegativities on the table and subtracting the smaller one from the larger one. If the difference is less than 0.5, the bond is nonpolar covalent.
