What is a mole?

It's hard to relate a mole to carbon or sulfur. Imagine if I walked up to you and said, "What's the relation between a dozen and donuts?"

A mole is a form of measurement for atoms, more specifically, 6.02 * 10^23 atoms. I suppose you could relate it to Carbon or Sulfur, since the number of atoms of each are usually measured in moles.

Carbon and Sulfur don't have a set number of moles (Just like donuts don't have to be a dozen), so it's hard to answer your second question.
In the atomic table, the number you see under the element is the molar mass, which is the weight of an a mole of the element. In this way, I guess there's a mole of Carbon and Sulfur present, if we're looking at the periodic table.

Choose the best statement of the octet rule from those listed below atoms lose 8 electrons to become valent atoms lose 8 electro

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

atoms tend to react in order to gain 8 valence electrons

Explanation:

The octet rule describes the tendency of atoms of elements to react in order to have eight electrons in their valence shell. This is because having eight valence electrons confers stability to the atoms of these elements in the compounds they form.

The octet rule only does not apply to the transition elements or the inner transition elements as only the s and p electrons are involved. the electronic configuration in atoms having an octet is s²p⁶.

For example, sodium atom has one valence electron in its valence shell but a complete octet in the inner shell; it will react with chlorine atom which has seven valence electrons to form a stable compound, sodium chloride by donating its one valence electron in order to have an octet. Similarly, the chlorine atom will then have an octet by accepting the one electron from sodium atom.
