Answer:
The correct answer is option A, that is, one valence electron in its third energy shell and option C, that is, 11 electrons and 11 protons.
Explanation:
The outermost electrons and the ones that take part in the process of bonding are termed as valence electrons. The atomic number of sodium is 11, thus, it possesses 11 protons and the atoms are neutral so it suggests that sodium has 11 electrons. By electronic configuration, it can be seen that in sodium, two electrons are present in the first shell, 8 in the second, and only one electron in the third shell, that is, 2.8.1. The electron present in the third shell is the valence electron.
I'm not so sure but I would say Answer Choice B
Balance Chemical Equation is as follow,
<span> Cu + 2 AgNO</span>₃ → 2 Ag + Cu(NO₃)₂
According to Balance Equation,
2 Moles of Ag is produced by reacting = 1 Mole of Cu
So,
0.854 Moles of Ag will be produced by reacting = X Moles of Cu
Solving for X,
X = (0.854 mol × 1 mol) ÷ 2 mol
X = 0.427 Moles of Cu
Result:
0.854 Moles of Ag are produced by reacting 0.427 Moles of Cu.
