Explanation:

1. Explain how groups 1A-8A in the periodic table are organized by their number of valence electrons.

The valence electrons in an atom are the outermost shell electrons. They are the most loosely held electrons in an atom.

Coincidentally, the periodic table of elements divided into vertical groups and horizontal periods can be said to be arranged according to the number of valence electrons.

  • Atomic numbers are used to arrange elements on the periodic table.
  • Down a group, the number of electronic shell increases. More electrons are added to new energy levels.
  • As we move from left to right across a period, the number of electrons in elements increases but electronic shell is the same.
  • Down a group electronic shell increases but the number of valence electrons are the same.
  • All elements in Group 1A has just one valence electrons, Group 2A has two valence electrons.........Group 8A has eight valence electrons.
  • Moving across groups is synonymous to moving from left to right on the periodic table.
  • Due to this trend, the periodic table is arranged based on the number of valence electrons.

3. explain how you know the number of valence electrons for each group.

The number of valence electrons in a group is the group number:

   Group      Number                     valence electrons

              1A                                                 1

              2A                                                2

              3A                                                 3

              4A                                                 4

               5A                                                5

               6A                                                6

               7A                                                7

               8A                                                8

Which corresponds to the composition of the ion typically formed by magnesium?
nekit [7.7K]
The ion composition of Magnesium is 12,10, 2+.
Magnesium is a chemical element with symbol Mg and an atomic number 12, it has 12 protons, and 12 electrons with a chemical configuration of 2:8:2. It requires to loose two electrons to form a stable configuration forming a cation (positively charged ion) with a charge of +2 and  a configuration of 2:8 ( 12 protons and 10 electrons).

TRUE OR FALSE
lesantik [10]
It depends on what unit/subject you're looking at.

Because in physics, I know that if you are considering Newton's theory of particles, all particles technically go in a straight line from the original direction. BUT, if you're looking at the Wave of the Particle theory, then you would assume that particles do not necessarily follow the above b/c they follow the properties of a wave...

When optically active (R)-2-methylcyclohexanone is treated with either aqueous base or acid, racemization occurs. Explain.
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Racemization is said to occur when a 1:1 ratio of (+) and (-) enantiomers of a compound are produced in a reaction.

The reaction of optically active (R)-2-methylcyclohexanone with either aqueous base or acid leads to the formation of a planar enol species for reaction with acid and a planar enolate species for reaction with base.

Both reactions involves the formation of achiral species which reverts back to the chiral product with equal chances of the formation of both enantiomers of the product during the process. This leads to racemization of the product in both cases.
