Hm, this could be more than one option, but gaining electrons makes a negative charge, so

If atoms of a halogen nonmetal (Group 17) gains one electron, the atoms the have "a negative one charge".

Answer : If atoms of a halogen nonmetal (Group 17) gains one electron, the atoms the have (-1) (or, negative) change.

Explanation :

Periods : A row in the periodic table is known as periods.

The common features about the elements of a period are :

Each periods has elements with the same number of electron shells or energy levels or shell.

They transition from metal to noble gas that means they move from metal to non-metal and then non-metal to noble gas.

Groups : A column in the periodic table is known as groups.

The common features about the elements of a same group are :

Each groups has elements with the same number of valance electrons.

The elements in the same group have similar chemical properties.

The elements in the same group have similar physical properties.

The group 17 is a non-metal and known as halogen. The number of valance electrons present in group 17 are 7 valence electrons.

The general electronic configuration of group 17 is:

ns^2np^5

As per question, when atoms of halogen gains one electron then the  atoms have (-1) (or, negative) charge and attain stable electronic configuration as noble gas.

For example : The element chlorine belongs to group 17 and the electronic configuration is:

1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^5

When chlorine atom gain one electron then the chlorine atom have (-1) charge Cl^-.

When 1.00 g of boron is burned in o2(g) to form b2o3(s), enough heat is generated to raise the temperature of 733 g of water fro
Bas_tet [7]
<span>Answer: For this problem, you would need to know the specific heat of water, that is, the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of 1 g of water by 1 degree C. The formula is q = c X m X delta T, where q is the specific heat of water, m is the mass and delta T is the change in temperature. If we look up the specific heat of water, we find it is 4.184 J/(g X degree C). The temperature of the water went up 20 degrees. 4.184 x 713 x 20.0 = 59700 J to 3 significant digits, or 59.7 kJ. Now, that is the energy to form B2O3 from 1 gram of boron. If we want kJ/mole, we need to do a little more work. To find the number of moles of Boron contained in 1 gram, we need to know the gram atomic mass of Boron, which is 10.811. Dividing 1 gram of boron by 10.811 gives us .0925 moles of boron. Since it takes 2 moles of boron to make 1 mole B2O3, we would divide the number of moles of boron by two to get the number of moles of B2O3. .0925/2 = .0462 moles...so you would divide the energy in KJ by the number of moles to get KJ/mole. 59.7/.0462 = 1290 KJ/mole.</span>

Which statement best describes the properties of sucrose?
crimeas [40]

Answer:

D. They are different from the properties of carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen are all <em>elements. </em>

Sucrose is a <em>compound</em> containing carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen. Its properties are different from those of its elements.

For example, carbon is a <em>black solid,</em> while oxygen and hydrogen are <em>colourless gases</em>. Sucrose is a <em>white solid</em>.

Shtirlitz [24]

Explanation:An ionic bond essentially donates an electron to the other atom participating in the bond, while electrons in a covalent bond are shared equally between the atoms. The only pure covalent bonds occur between identical atoms. ... Ionic bonds form between a metal and a nonmetal. Covalent bonds form between two nonmetals.

Without doing any calculations, match the following thermodynamic properties with their appropriate numerical sign for the follo
siniylev [52]

Answer:

∆H > 0

∆Srxn <0

∆G >0

∆Suniverse <0

Explanation:

We are informed that the reaction is endothermic. An endothermic reaction is one in which energy is absorbed hence ∆H is positive at all temperatures.

Similarly, absorption of energy leads to a decrease in entropy of the reaction system. Hence the change in entropy of the reaction ∆Sreaction is negative at all temperatures.

The change in free energy for the reaction is positive at all temperatures since ∆S reaction is negative then from ∆G= ∆H - T∆S, we see that given the positive value of ∆H, ∆G must always return a positive value at all temperatures.

Since entropy of the surrounding= - ∆H/T, given that ∆H is positive, ∆S surrounding will be negative at all temperatures. This is so because an endothermic reaction causes the surrounding to cool down.
