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.

tekilochka [14]

Answer: polar molecule.

Explanation:

The boiling point is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquid equals the external pressure surrounding the liquid. The boiling point is dependent on the type of forces present.

Iodine monochloride (ICl) is a polar molecule due to the difference in electronegativities of iodine and chlorine. Thus the molecules are bonded by strong dipole dipole forces. Thus a higher temperature is needed to generate enough vapor pressure.

Bromine (Br_2) is a non polar molecule as there is no electronegativity difference between two bromine atoms. The molecules are bonded by weak vanderwaal forces and thus has low boiling point.

An electrochemical cell has the following standard cell notation.
icang [17]

The cell notation is:

Mg(s)|Mg^{+2}(aq)||Ag^{+}(aq)|Ag(s)

here in cell notation the left side represent the anodic half cell where right side represents the cathodic half cell

in anodic half cell : oxidation takes place [loss of electrons]

in cathodic half cell: reduction takes place [gain of electrons]

1) this is a galvanic cell

2) the standard potential of cell will be obtained by subtracting the standard reduction potential of anode from cathode

E^{0}_{Mg}=-2.38V

E^{0}_{Ag}=+0.80V

Therefore

E^{0}_{cell}=0.80-(-2.38)=+3.18V

3) as the value of emf is positive the reaction will be spontaneous as the free energy change of reaction will be negative

ΔG^{0}=-nFE^{0}

As reaction is spontaneous and there will be conversion of chemical energy to electrical energy it is a galvanic cell.
