Chemistry

Anna35 [415]4 years ago
7 0

Answer is: The highest occupied s and p sublevels are completely filled.

Noble gases (group 18) are in group 18: helium (He), neon (Ne), argon (Ar), krypton (Kr), xenon (Xe) and radon (Rn). They have very low chemical reactivity.

Noble gases have very stable electron configuration and does not need to gain electrons, only when they gain energy.

1) For example, krypton is a chemical element with symbol Kr and atomic number 36, which means it has 36 protons and 36 electrons.

Electron configuration of krypton atom:  

₃₆Kr 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 3d¹⁰ 4s² 4p⁶.

2) Another example, xenon (Xe) is noble gas with atomic number 54, which means it has 54 protons and 54 electrons.  

Electron configuration of xenon atom:  

₅₄Xe 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 3d¹⁰ 4s² 4p⁶ 4d¹⁰ 5s² 5p⁶.

Compounds with high melting points have _____
solong [7]

Answer:

C) Ionic bonds

Explanation:

The ionic bonds are the strongest bond, it occurs when a metal donates electrons and a nonmetal gain these electrons. They'll be together by electrostatic force.

Metallic bonds it the second strongest bond, it occurs between metals, which loses electrons. It's an electrostatic force, but weaker than the ionic compound because it occurs between the cation and the electron.

Covalent bonds are the weakest bond. It happens between metals and nonmetals, or nonmetals and hydrogen or between atoms of hydrogen. The force that joins the atoms depends on the polarity of the molecule. Polar molecules have dipole forces, nonpolar molecules, induced dipole forces. Also, hydrogen makes special dipole forces with nitrogen, oxygen, and fluorine, called hydrogen bond.

As the stronger is the force, as difficult it will be to break it. So, ionic bonds will demand more energy to become gas, and have high melting points.

OlgaM077 [116]
The statement above is TRUE.
The statement that is given above implies that, if a paint sample matches another known sample from a vehicle, that does not indicate that the paints come from the same source but it does show a very high probability that the paint samples come from the same object, if the compositions of the paint samples are the same.
