Answer: The correct answer is the option: B. An element with eight valence electrons is chemically unstable.
Explanation:
Hello! Let's solve this!
We will analyze each of the options:
A. The group number of the element provides a clue to the number of valence electrons: it is correct, since it provides the number of valence electrons.
B. An element with eight valence electrons is chemically unstable: this is not correct, since elements with eight electrons in the valence shell cannot react because they already have the last complete shell. Therefore, they are chemically stable.
C. The points must be placed one at a time on each side of the chemical symbol: it is correct, because that is the way to make the point diagram.
D. An atom is chemically stable if all the points are paired: this is correct since this verifies that the point diagram has been done well.
We conclude that the correct answer is the option: B. An element with eight valence electrons is chemically unstable.
Hope this helps..... Stay safe and have a Merry Christmas!!!!!!!!! :D
Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
The process in which two or more small nuclei combine together to result in the formation of a larger nuclei is known as fusion.
In Sun, four hydrogen nuclei combine together to result in the formation of helium atom. This combining of small hydrogen nuclei to form a large helium nuclei represents fusion process occurring inside the Sun.
Thus, we can conclude that to power itself, the sun is constantly generating a nuclear reaction in its core, in which hydrogen nuclei are combined to form helium. This process is known as fusion.
Answer:
1. Synthesis
2. Decomposition
3. Single replacement
4. Synthesis
5. Decomposition
6. Synthesis
Explanation:
Kind of a hard picture to look at but let me define each chemical reaction:
Synthesis:
a + b ---> ab In synthesis elements/compounds come together to form new compounds
Decomposition:
ab ---> a + b In decomposition a compound breaks down to form 2 elements/compounds
Single replacement:
a + bc ---> b + ac In a single replacement one element/compound takes the place of another element/compound.
Double replacement
ab + cd ---> ad + bc In a double replacement 2 compounds exchange different elements/compounds.
Now, let's go through the assignment
1. P + O2 --> P4O10 This is a synthesis reaction because the two elements (P and O) came together to form one compound.
2. HgO ---> Hg + O2 This is a decomposition reaction because HgO broke into separate elements Hg and O.
3. Cl2 + NaBr ---> NaCl + Br2 This is a single replacement reaction because chlorine (Cl) replaced the spot of bromine (Br) to bond with sodium (Na).
4. Mg + O2 ---> MgO This is a synthesis reaction because two elements (Mg and O) came together to form one compound.
5. Al2O3 ---> Al + O2 This is a decomposition reactions because Al2O3 broke into separate elements Al and O.
6. H2 + N2 ---> NH3 This is a synthesis reaction because two elements (H and N) came together to form one compound.

A base and an Acid always react to form a salt and water
So, HCl + NaOH —> NaCl + HOH
