Answer: valence electrons

Explanation:-

Chemical bond is formed either by sharing of electrons or transfer of valence electrons.

Chemical reactivity is defined as the tendency of an element to loose or gain electrons which are present in the last or valence shell which are called as valence electrons.

A covalent bond is formed when an element shares its valence electron with another element. This bond is formed between two non metals.

$HF$ is formed by sharing of valence electrons of hydrogen and fluorine to complete their octet.

An ionic bond is formed when an element completely transfers its valence electron to another element. The element which donates the electron is known as electropositive element and forms a positively charged ion called as cation. The element which accepts the electrons is known as electronegative element and forms a negatively charged ion called as anion.

Thus valence electrons participate in chemical bonding.

An earthquake on the ocean floor produced a giant wave called a tsunami. The tsunami traveled through the ocean and hit a remote

Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

What cause an earthquake is when the earth plates shift and if theirs a drop in the tentonic plates a ripple effect like when you drop something in water will occur. The plates shift down the water in which the plate shift down the water will go in that direction due to gravity, but instead of equalizing the water will pick up some speed and velocity and begin to form a wave now. When an tsunami happens you know it coming cause the water moves back cause the water is picking up to much speed and due to cohesion its moves along with the move water and builds up. Creating a massive tidal wave known as tsunamis.

Indicate if the following statements are TRUE (T) or FALSE (F):

Aleks [24]

Answer:

a) T

b) T

c) F

d) F

e) T

f) T

g) T

h) F

I) F

j) F

k) F

l) F

Explanation:

The w/v concentration is obtained from, mass/volume. Hence;

%w/v= 50/1000= 5%

In the %w/w we have;

25g/100 g = 25% w/w

In combustion reaction, energy is given out hence it is exothermic.

Neutralization reaction yields a salt and water

% by mass of carbon is obtained from;

8× 12/114 × 100 = 84.1%

All the ionic substances mentioned have very low solubility in water.

One mole of a substance contains the Avogadro's number of each atom in the compound.

There are two iron atoms so one mole contains 2× 55.85 g of iron.

Some sulphates such as BaSO4 are insoluble in water.

Halides are soluble in water hence NaI is soluble in water.

The equation does not balance with the given coefficients because the number of atoms of each element on both sides differ.

The equation represents a decomposition of calcium carbonate as written.

How do I find molar mass

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:The molar mass is the mass of a given chemical element or chemical compound (g) divided by the amount of substance (mol).

The molar mass of a compound can be calculated by adding the standard atomic masses (in g/mol) of the constituent atoms.
