Answer:
All of the elements in a period have the same number of atomic orbitals. For example, every element in the top row (the first period) has one orbital for its electrons. All of the elements in the second row (the second period) have two orbitals for their electrons.
Explanation:
Answer:
Nitrogen has 5 valence electrons
Explanation:
nitrogen has it's attoms form triple bonds which are very hard to break
so non-reactive

Answer:
- <em><u>Step 2 (the slow step).</u></em>
Explanation:
The rate-determining step is always the slow step of a mechanism.
That is so, because it is the slow step which limits the reaction.
Imaging that for assembling a toy you have process of three steps:
- 1. order ten pieces, which you can do in 1 minute: meaning that you can order order the pieces for 60/1 = 60 toys in 1 hour.
- 2. glue the pieces and hold the toy until the glue hardens, which takes 1 hour: meaning finishingh 1 toy in 1 hour.
- 3. pack the toy, which takes 2 minutes: meaning that you can pack 60/2 = 30 toys in one hour.
The time to glue and hold one toy until the glue hardens determines that you can assemble 1 toy in 1 hour and not 60 toys or 30 toys.
Thus, the step that determines the rate at which the reaction happens is the slowest step: step 2.
Answer:
b. 54.9%
Explanation:
An emerald gemstone has the formula Be₃Al₂Si₁₆O₁₈. We can find the mass of each element in 1 mole of Be₃Al₂Si₁₆O₁₈ by multiplying the molar mass of the element by its atomicity.
Be: 3 × 9.01 g = 27.03 g
Al: 2 × 26.98 g = 53.96 g
Si: 16 × 28.09 g = 449.4 g
O: 18 × 16.00 g = 288.0 g
Total mass = 818.4 g
The mass percentage of silicon is:
(449.4 g / 818.4 g) × 100% = 54.91%
