Answer:

They have completely filled outermost shell

Explanation:

The noble gases are the rarest and occur in trace amounts in the atmosphere because they have completely filled outermost and this makes them unreactive with other elements.

Elements become abundant as they combine with other species to form compounds.

Noble gases on the other hand have a high level of stability and do not readily combine with other species.

Some of these gases are :

Helium

Neon

Argon

Krypton

Xenon

Radon

They have very high ionization energy and very low electron affinity and so will not readily react.

Which of the following represents the least number of molecues?

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

Answer: a) 20g of H2O (18.02 g/mol) molecules=6.68x10^23

Explanation:

In order to find the amount of molecules of each of the options, we need to follow the following equation.

$molecules=\frac{mass(g)x6.022x10^{23}(molecules/mol) }{atomic weight(g/mol)}$

So, let´s get the number of molecules for each of the options.

$a) molecules=\frac{20(g)x6.022x10^{23}(molecules/mol) }{18.02(g/mol)}=6.68x10^{23}molecules$

$b) molecules=\frac{77(g)x6.022x10^{23}(molecules/mol) }{16.06(g/mol)}=2.89x10^{24}molecules$

$c) molecules=\frac{68(g)x6.022x10^{23}(molecules/mol) }{42.09(g/mol)}=9.73x10^{23}molecules$

$d) molecules=\frac{100(g)x6.022x10^{23}(molecules/mol) }{44.02(g/mol)}=1.37x10^{24}molecules$

$d) molecules=\frac{84(g)x6.022x10^{23}(molecules/mol) }{20.01(g/mol)}=2.53x10^{24}molecules$

the smalest number is in option a)

Best of luck.
