You are working in a lab with a stable, unreactive element. How many valance electrons does this element have?

Biology
1 answer:
fgiga [73]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

8

Explanation:

The element must have a complete octet in order to be unreactive.

Such an unreactive element must be a noble gas/ inert gas/ or group O element.

Most elements on the periodic table try to mimic them.

This configuration makes the group O elements unique and unreactive.

What drives reactively is ability of an atom to lose or gain electron in order to achieve a stable configuration such as that of group O elements.

Answer:

The correct answer is ''The scientific study of heredity''

Explanation:

Inheritance is the physical and biological characteristics that we share with our family and that can determine our appearance and our biological characteristics, that is, our phenotype (eye color, skin type, etc.) as well as our internal characteristics. All of this is largely derived from our genetic components, that is, our genotype.
